ERROR NOTICE: UNDELIVERABLE - USER NOT FOUND

[ user very much found. ]

[counterstep]

nice try but i pulled up your contact info directly, silky

( which is his new nickname! you're welcome! )

are you interested in taking up the adjacent quarters? y/n

[kaijuice]

N

[ better to have access to the others (to jinx) ]

Perhaps you can rent it. No doubt, some of them want out.

[counterstep]

rent it with what currency?
there's nothing people can rent with onboard, buddy

and anyway it's a partner exclusive so it's your option, not anyone else's

[kaijuice]

Do you believe that all of them will receive that offer?

[ there's always something people want. ]

after our group therapy session

[omniavincit]

Emily.

[kaijuice]

How old is she?

[omniavincit]

10. [ And three-quarters. ] Close to 11.

How old's Jinx?

[kaijuice]

Seventeen.

[ he was a man by then, wasn't he? but, ]

Ten's good. They're deciding who to be.

[omniavincit]

[ Seventeen scares the shit out of him. He trusts that goes without saying. ] I know she'll surprise me.

Does she take after you?

[kaijuice]

Brighter,

[ when she stops to think ]

Clever with her hands. She'd hate how clean this place is.

[Travis is so casually heated that he doesn't think twice about picking up his communicator to vent:]

I slashed a warden's throat but it turns out he's invulnerable. Son of a bitch! How the fuck is anyone supposed to get an edge on these guys?

audio;

[kaijuice]

[ There's a saying, in the Undercity. It came from cold water, and deep earth; they whisper it in the flooded mineshaft, shout it from the scummy neon roofs. The old city birthed it, the country before canyon and cataclysm and climb. It drank from the milk of centuries, grew fat and wild. There's a saying: ]

What the fuck.

[ Yeah. That one. ]

audio;

[rank1]

[Hearing Silco say something crude almost puts a shiver down Travis’s spine, and a tiny little part of him thinks it may be directed at him, but he’s so fucking mad about this fucking shiv—]

Yeah! Not a single fucking scratch on him! Fucking shiv broke like glass.

hello again :)

it looks like i will be your warden this month
if there's anything i can help with please let me know :)

actually i thought i'd ask since i don't actually know
is Silco your first or last name ?
would you prefer Mr. Silco ?
names are important :)

[kaijuice]

How generous of you.

Silco is my only name - and it will do among friends, if you permit me the optimism. What address would you prefer?

[expectaspectre]

just "Grace" is fine
my last name is Gibson but it doesn't really signify much here does it ?

forgive me if i'm mistaken but it seemed like you didn't get along much with James last month
hopefully we can do a better job of it for the next few weeks at least
after all helping out is what i am here for :)

[kaijuice]

We did not begin upon even terms — such squabbles are common to men of a certain age. I shouldn't let it trouble you.

Any name signifies what you allow it. Is there reason to shed yours?

[expectaspectre]

[ He coulda just stopped at "men" tbh. ]

not really
my family's not great but it's nothing to change my name over
there were a lot of Graces in my year in school but no others here so
it's not as necessary

the alliteration is a little embarrassing

So, what have your warden experiences been like thus far?

[kaijuice]

Excluding my much-publicized admiration for Barnes —

Uneventful. Grace seems a fine young woman. And your inmate experiences?

[nineteenfortyfive]

Everyone loves James. It's to be expected.

The same. Uneventful. Volk was troubled and Alex is docile enough. Both preferred the private room over the dorms. Will that be the same for you?

[kaijuice]

No. I value the perspective; unless you've another to offer.

[nineteenfortyfive]

Only that which peace and quiet and privacy can offer.
