[Questionable sanity, yes, but Stein has always fought off that siren song of madness. He fights against it with his entire soul, and exhausting as the struggle is, it's all he's ever really known.
That said, he will take those worms.]
Have you tried the chocolates yet?
[Stein has. Curiosity will be his downfall, one of these days.
Break (and the Hatter) might feel again that sense of being looked at, examined. It's just a glance, there and gone again.
It is enough for Stein to recognize madness seeping from Chain to chained, though he makes no comment on what he sees.]
