Even beyond what people sometimes affectionately call his "sleeping silent glare", Malkin is a very tired man. He's tired of the City Watch, tired of the hypocrisies of the Church of Denari, and above all else, tired of how his Second Sight can't shut up. He doesn't even really dislike ghosts, it's just that they are around to remind him constantly of the ways Eversink does not work, and he's the first to admit his never-ending quest for some kind of justice is a coping mechanism for all the crap he sees every day - able to convince himself that he's at least not net contributing.
