One of the most important skills is knowing when the person you're talking to is irredeemable. That point where even if you got through to them and they heard and understood you loud and clear, it wouldn't matter because they're genuinely an evil person on the inside. It's hard to accept but some people can genuinely only be cured with the 82nd element.

It can be hard to tell, some people really are just deeply sick, but aren't truly evil. That's why I always prod for their humanity, even when all evidence shows they don't have any. You never know... Some people really are in deep, and while I might not be able to save them I can at least plant a seed which will give them a chance to find redemption when they're ready.
