Utterly Random Question

So if you wanted to make someone mad, how would you do it and why? Also what worlds might it might sense in, magic or technology one?

I have a fic idea for Tiwa that's coming into focus but I just need an explanation for something she fixes and madness is complicated. Help?!

Repeating everything anyone says really pisses people off. It's a weapon wielded by siblings all over the glove, and tried and true for YEARS. The why of it is...to make people mad and be annoying.

I don't know if that is what you're looking for, but it would make me mad!

Very different angle than I was thinking of but I will remember that.

I am assuming crazy!mad and not angry!mad, so correct my ass if I am wrong.

I think it could work in both, but just different elements in each world. Seeing things that aren't there--magic induced hallucinations or tech-fried-brains side effects--are always good crazy fodder; similarly, hearing voices.

Yes because Fae are connected to madness and madmen and Tiwa could help them by taking in their madness. I can see it all working, its just me as a writer, I want to put together the whys.

Maybe it should be another world that's not one of those threes that they wander into, that might work and then I won't have to worry as much and can let it flow.

Are you online somewhere, this idea is banging around in my head and I need to bounce it off someone?

First- ooooooooooooh pretty icon is pretty.

Second- Hm. Thinking now on crazy'mad and not angry'mad- Subtle manipulations to make them paranoid. Arranging things to work against then, constantly. One day of bad luck is one thing, but after a few days, I think even I'd be paranoid!

Thanks, its a New Zealand artist I found and that's his interpretation of a fantail and I love it so much.

Also very helpful, its that bothersome thing where I have a really powerful image of her fixing it but not the world around it and I'd like to have that. It might work without it but I'd like to have it.

Put them in a completely featureless white room and bound so they can't move. And by completely featureless I mean completely no door frame, no cracks from the door, no definition for where the walls meet or the wall meet the ceiling. Nothing for the person within to define the room. And no sounds. Nothing to define time or space.

And no I have never put PCs in a room like this...never. Really.

Your mind is a cool, strange place, thank you.

Depends what kind of madness you want.
