I'm curious. How many of you have kids back home? Or had someone to take care of, anything like that. I'm in a bit of a unique situation because when I first came here I wasn't even in a relationship, and now I'm married with kids, but I think it's done a lot towards helping my inmate. I'm not saying we should treat our inmates like they're our kids, but it's something to think about.

Still grounded, kiddo?

I was looking back over our old conversations, and I'd completely forgotten about that assignment I gave you. Made many friends yet?

You don't have to have learned it on the barge.

I don't think I actually learned it. I just came to the realization that I am what I am: and that's a horrible father.

Warden Filter

That's a sort of learning, I think. One day I woke up and realized I was kind of an ass.

Warden Filter

Everyone is kind of an ass. Those who claim not to be tend to be the worst of the lot.

Sounds about right.

And on that note, I don't believe we've met.

No? Wally West. Pleasure to meet you.

Warden Filter

[lotoftrouble.livejournal.com]

Loki. A pleasure to meet you as well, Wally.

You were an inmate here before you graduated, right? The Norse God?

Warden Filter

[lotoftrouble.livejournal.com]

That's correct! I am the Norse god of mischief.

Do you know the Greek Gods at all? I always wondered if the pantheons ever got together.

I am good friends with Persephone, but that's only because she is on the Barge as well.

Warden Filter

I figured as much. I raced Hermes once, I was almost wondering if he ever talked about it.

Warden Filter

[lotoftrouble.livejournal.com]

I have no idea who that even is.

Warden Filter

[gingerspeedster.livejournal.com]

Greek God of travelers, I think.

Warden Filter

[lotoftrouble.livejournal.com]

Why would the Greek God of travelers be especially fast?

How should I know? I'm not Greek. Ask Wonder Woman.
