"A very adventurous life." Ellis could understand it. There was obviously a difference in scope, and time, and, quite frankly, breadth of experience, but Ellis approached an understanding of the core themes of isolation and seeking. The need to escape a life that wasn't what you wanted and pursue one that you wanted more than anything else?
While he wasn't so foolish to think that they were the same (if he was sure of anything, Ellis was sure that the life he lead would have done him zero favors as a Gangrel), there was more than simply fangs and hunger and a streak of viciousness that made them similar, Ellis thought.
"So what do you want, Madcap?" Ellis asks, eyes afire with curiosity. "I don't mean Dragon secrets," He brushes away the idea with a hand, his body language very clear that whatever esoteric secrets and insights about the Curse that the Dragons clutch to their chests in their hoard is, at best, only of a very minor intrest to him, and even then only it's something he knows all but nothing about. Whatever they are, they are immaterial to him. "I mean what do you want that you can't get studying in your chapterhouse? You come to Court for a reason. You live here, for a reason. What changed in your priorities?"
He has his suspicions.
Ellis is trying to get a read on what Madcap wants out of his requiem, based on what he's seen of the man, heard of him, and how he reacts to the question, even if he tries to stonewall him here.
