Purloining

Tyson practises his purloining to perfection.
Sooner or later, Tyson is going to get himself into trouble by reflexively pick-pocketing and stealing the things that catch his attention to improve his skills. It’s almost become a reflex for Tyson. If there is an easy pocket, he needs to pick it.
For all practical purposes, Tyson does not need to spend his ‘free time’ pick-pocketing people on the streets of London. He is an excellent pick-pocket already and he is only making more work for himself, having to find creative ways to return the stolen items later; whenever possible.
However, Tyson enjoys that. It’s a game and an adventure, and though he potentially ruined a person’s day when he stole it, Tyson knows that he can make someone’s day by returning the stolen item; anonymously or not.
He is an adept lock-picker, and took to it like a duck to water, but learning how to safe-crack has been an uphill battle for Tyson. He understands how it works and what he needs to do, but that simply does not click into achieving it - without several minutes of swearing and a snack intermission - for Tyson.
