[The video feed flickers to life when Shego smacks her communicator a couple times by mistake, groping along the side of her nightstand for a chirping alarm clock. She switches off the alarm, sits up and runs both hands through her hair - Shego's bed-hair is a terrifying thing to behold, it looks like there's twice as much of it as usual.

She swings her legs over the side of the bed and then, finally, notices the communicator. She leans in for a closer look, looking tired and bewildered.]

Doctor D, the heck is -

[There's a flicker of recognition in her face, and then her expression becomes completely unreadable.]

No.

Oh no no no.

No no no no no NO NO--

[The screen fills with green energy, cracks, then goes blank.]

Yep. And now I'm a warden. Surprise?

[voice]

[gotgreenmagic.livejournal.com]

Not sure that's the word I'd use. Exactly how much does wherever you come from suck that this place is better?

[voice]

[yousethimfree.livejournal.com]

Pretty much everyone there wants to kill me. Or torture me for the rest of eternity.

[voice]

[gotgreenmagic.livejournal.com]

Eternal torture. Doesn't sound altogether unlike an interdimensional space jail I could name.

[voice]

[yousethimfree.livejournal.com]

Trust me, this is small potatoes.

[voice]

[gotgreenmagic.livejournal.com]

So you jumped out of the fire and into the frying pan. Good for you.

[voice]

[yousethimfree.livejournal.com]

I'll survive.

How was home?

[voice]

[gotgreenmagic.livejournal.com]

Pretty much the same as I left it.

[voice]

[yousethimfree.livejournal.com]

You never really told me what it's like there.

[voice]

[gotgreenmagic.livejournal.com]

It's kinda difficult to say what it's like when I don't have a whole lot to compare it to.

[voice]

[yousethimfree.livejournal.com]

Alright, then. What about Doctor D? Who's he?

[voice]

[gotgreenmagic.livejournal.com]

He's my boss. Sometimes. When he displays the slightest little bit of competence.

[voice]

[yousethimfree.livejournal.com]

He sounds delightful. Why would you work for someone like that?

[voice]

[gotgreenmagic.livejournal.com]

Better options are nonexistent and self-employment never really felt like my thing.

[voice]

[yousethimfree.livejournal.com]

Yeah, mine either. Still, I think I'd rather be out on my own than with someone who doesn't know what the hell he's doing. [There's a brief pause as she realizes what she just said, then a soft snort.] This coming from someone who works for the Admiral.
