Fantasy High except it's just Bill Seacaster becoming progressively more feral

And by progressively I mean he just kinda stays up there, huh?
Bill Seacaster is portrayed by Brennan Lee Mulligan on Dimension 20 and I love him.

@@31323452 I'm not sure what you're trying to say here but it seems like you are confusing morality with legality. There is nothing morally ambiguous about drugs in general, addiction is a healthcare issue, not a moral one. What one a person does to their body is their own business and as long as that person is old enough to make their own choices, morality doesn't even come into question. This would also bring into question whether tobacco was illegal as well as alcohol or if there is an age of usage in Solace, because their certainly wouldn't be one on Leviathan given that piracy in and of itself would be illegal (and immoral for that matter). Again, not exactly sure what you're trying to say but there are so many things wrong with your statement, I'm not exactly sure where to begin and/or end so I will just end it here.
