I wonder how a person wakes up one day and says to him/herself: i want to kidnap children when i grow up
To be fair, i did that, but i was aiming for a witchy mysterious throw-them-in-the-oven sorta way, and dropped that aspiration just about the second i learned the only people who kidnap children nowadays are pedophiles.
It's just not the right cultural moment for reclaiming that.
Please feel free to prove there's a single ice agent that's not a pedophile. Edit: then maybe i can start on my childhood dream of being a terrible witch who throws kids in my oven and/or cauldron.
Do you have any proof though?

I think it's more about following your passion and just one day finding yourself behind the steering wheel.
