Yes, sometimes it takes time to get the right feeling. I dig.
I tried to put irony in the second draft by having the hostage not care about his life... Originally I wanted the hostage taker to be the protagonist and the negotiator be the antagonist, then I decided maybe the hostage themselves should be the protagonist. I'm trying to catch that feeling of a situation spiraling out of control
The story is much, much shorter but completelyy confusing now.
I would use Graigs version of your logline as a guideline for further revisions:
"A rich kid drug addict triggers a siege when he takes a hostage during a break and enter. The diabetic hostage's health quickly deteriorates as the a self serving negotiator and the addict suffering withdrawal argue it out."
Although even in this version I'm not sure who is the protag and who is the entag?
And where is the irony in the story?
