Sieghart seemed to believe some external force had acted upon him, when he killed Flayn. A shadow, as he put it. Given his behavior otherwise, he seemed of reasonably sound mind, unlike the refracted individuals I am more familiar with, but...
I do not suppose there is aught you may say of his situation?
Theoretically speaking, if someone were influenced into acting, do you believe that manner of murder would count under 'entertainment'? Or only if they opted to do so fully of their own volition?
As much as it can be considered of one's own volition, under the circumstances.
You would love to know what constitutes above and beyond. [ he probably would, actually
eventually, they sigh. ] It's not that I'm avoiding doing my work, I do my work. But I'm tired of sitting around and doing paperwork and all the random shit for the day to day. I thought Gems would just want to do it all, but noo...
Even those who enjoy such work often do not wish to do it in place of others. If we did, I assure you, the Chief of the Bureau would spend half his days at home.

[anyone who considers murder entertainment has terrible ideas of it.]
But it is good to know, regardless.

You are dodging your other duties, aren't you.
no subject
I am not! I'm duty bound as shit!

[he sounds faintly amused.]
no subject
Yeah! You didn't even tip me, and you made me fetch you the contract out of nowhere, you know, and I still went above and beyond the line of duty!
no subject
[....oh, fine.]
If you insist you are not busy, I suppose you may stay.

Chief of the Bureau sounds pretty important.
no subject
[he definitely is the type.]
But yes, it is. The Chief of the Bureau of the Architect works below me to review and approve new concepts for creation.
no subject
Ohh. A second in command, huh? One of those persistent types?
