Everyone in my short fiction class last night looked like a murderer. It didn't help that the class legit took place in the deep, dark night (8:30- 10:45pm), which furthered my suspicions because I thought those hours were more conducive to the murder lifestyle than to, say, the fisherman's lifestyle.
They all seemed quite cheerful murderers - at least the ones seated behind me- which confused me at first but then I considered that that is probably typical murderer behaviour following a satisfying murder. I guess thats what happens post-murder: the murderer goes to class and sits behind the likes of me while loudly discussing Tumblr and Robot Chicken. After all, they can't go on murdering day and night, they have to do normal things to defer suspicion. A late night english class is a much needed escape for the modern murderer.
