Hypothetical situation. Call it an intellectual exercise.

Inmates versus Wardens. No holds barred - everybody's got all their powers, their mad science, helpful voices in their heads, whatever.  Admiral's asleep or out to lunch or just doesn't care, which I'd argue is his default position anyways but my personal biases don't need to be involved here.

Who'd win?

Oh, and if you're going to get your panties in a bunch over me fostering hostility or whatever it is I'm doing, then a) imagine it's just a softball game or something and b) know that you are a total wuss.

[Private to Bruce]

Hey.

[Private to Prefect]

Another lesson tonight?

[Private to Tim]

Hey. I have a question.

Well, gee, apparently enough people know that it was pretty dumb of you to not just tell me.

I d- Okay. Well, to the best of my knowledge only seven other people knew, and frankly even that was seven too many for me, but. That's beside the point right now.

I don't just tell people about it, all right. It's. ...I do my best to not talk about it. So. I'd very much appreciate it if you didn't, like. Broadcast it to the network at large? Please?

Seriously? You're just going to ask nicely?

Frankly it feels kinda morally irresponsible of me to not try blackmailing you.

...Well, what else am I supposed to do? Take away your communicator and lock you up in your room so there's no one for you to tell? I'm not some kind of- Of psycho or anything like that.

And, er. ...I kind of thought this went without saying but. Blackmailing someone is bad. The commission of which is much more morally irresponsible than, um. Not.

[She's just. Going to turn voice on now so you can hear her laughing hysterically.

Until it actually sounds a little bit crazy.

Sorry, she's still having Kirk withdrawal issues right now and any emotional outbursts are going to end up a bit on the cracked side.]

[It's okay, Bruce has been laughed at... Many, many times in his life. And this probably won't be the last time. Such is the way of nerd-zen.]

Are you done yet?

[private]

[gotgreenmagic.livejournal.com]

Heh.

Yeah, I'm done.

[hulk]

Okay. Thank you.

Um. ...If you're still on the whole, um. Anti-getting-to-know-each-other bandwagon thing, then I just have a few questions to ask because, like I said, your file doesn't cover your time here, so. Do you mind doing that right now?

[private]

By definition, for it to be a bandwagon there has to be more than one person on it, but...yeah, whatever. Go ahead.

[private]

[hulk]

....Well, duh. Right. Sorry about that.

Um. Firstly, how long have you been on the Barge, obviously. How many wardens have you had before me, and. Darn it, I know I had a thi- Ah. Yes. Are you working any jobs on the Barge at the moment?

[private]

[gotgreenmagic.livejournal.com]

Eleven months, one, no.

[private]

[hulk]

....Wow, that's. A long time. Okay, then. Would you maybe. Want a job? I don't know what your usual day-to-day schedule is, so. I don't know if you've got various things filling up the time, or what, but.

[private]

[gotgreenmagic.livejournal.com]

No, actually I'm doing okay without one.

[private]

[hulk]

Oh. That's good then. Well, er. If that should change, obviously let me know and I can. Find something, I don't know. But thank you for answering my questions. It was very helpful.

You're welcome.
