I could perform a screening on you if you wish. However I doubt that it will be entirely necessary. People who are truly mired within the Syndrome will be so protective of it that they will not even consider the idea. You may have a touch of it; I cannot tell yet. But...and forgive me...
If you are a man who connects emotionally and socially with the society around you, values it and responds to it--be it a kingdom or the odd little society here on the Barge--why is that bad? If approached in a balanced fashion, without extremes, it strikes me as a virtue. The ability to blend in, to become one with the community and make its concerns your own, is something that can be admirable. It could be one of your greatest strengths once you master it.
I believe that the key for you is moderation and self knowledge. Such assimilation should be something you choose to do, not something you need to do or do as reflex.
Also...on a personal note...I actually have no particular wish to leave this place myself, even though I am currently an Inmate.
[He pauses, wondering why he just confided that. But what was done was done.]
Miss Anderson, as I call her, is a being whose very existence has caused me to question certain of my assumptions and habits.
