[ Warden Filter ]

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?

[ Private to Drake ]

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

Kinda knew it was stupid even then. I was mad and looking for a fight. Sure found one too.

Next time you're looking for a fight, you should ask to spar with someone. People do it all the time here. It's an easy place to get restless and mad.

Ah... I don't really know how to spar. You know, like spar spar. Me and this guy were just fighting, not with any technique or anything like that.

There are plenty of people who could teach you, but I guess you should talk to your warden first. Maybe make a case that it'll stop you from getting into fights for no reason?

He's making me go through some boot camp thing. Dunno what it'll involve except me having to get up stupid early. Or maybe he changed his mind about it. I sure hope he did.

It's something to do, at least. Early won't seem so early once you get used to it.
From: [identity profile] sixthanimorph.livejournal.com
I don't wanna get used to it. I mean, I guess it wouldn't be so bad if it weren't Bourne. But it is.

[Public] Lucky you don't read comics :C

You always have a choice. And you're making the right one.

[Public] :CC

It's a crappy choice, but it's still a choice. And it's your choices that got you here.

[Public] S'okay, that's what headcanon is for.

Oh, great. Now you're giving me the oh-how-wrong-you-were speech. You don't understand. Nobody does.

[Public] So much headcanon. And rp.

I'll be honest with you, kid. I don't know why you did what you did and I don't get it. It's not in my programming. All I'm saying is that you had a choice, and the choice you made brought you here, to this point. It can't have been a very good choice if you're miserable with where you are.

[Public] Always RP. Always.

That's just it, I didn't have a choice, any more than I've got one now. What was I supposed to do, let myself get bossed around forever? Sleep in a barn forever? Let them all look down at me and insult me while I risked getting killed for them? I don't care who tries to guilt me into thinking I was wrong, you, Bourne, whoever. It was the only choice I could make, and if I had to go back, I'd still do the same stuff. I'd just go after them sooner.

That's the thing, David. You did have a choice. You always have a choice. There may not be any good choice, or any right choice, but there always is one. Whether or not I agree with your choice doesn't matter. It's not my choice, it's yours. If you're happy with it, then fine. But you don't seem happy to me.

It doesn't matter if I was happy with it. It was what I had to do. Nobody gets that! I'm miserable because I'm stuck here with a warden who can turn me into a rat whenever he fucking wants to and stalks me wherever I go! A guy who's taken everything from me, and the one time I take something from him, I get stomped into the ground. That's bullshit, and I don't care if he's got a right to do it or whatever as a warden, it's still bullshit.

You're right, it is. Neither of you should be taking anything from the other. He's supposed to be helping you, and you're miserable, and that's not fair. But all you've got now are the choices in front of you. All you can do is try to make them count.

Why do you care about convincing me? You know I can't do anything to him. I couldn't even if I wanted to. He's got me right where he wants me, and there's not a damn thing I can do about it. So what's this, trying to get me to feel better about it?
