13. withdrawal anger is directed at YOU, inmates.

[Filtered to Inmates - Uhura's still reading everything]Right. Ladies and fucking gentlemen. Get your arses in gear already. Yeah, I ain't one for gainful labour, most of the time, but it ain't fucking fair if some of you are sitting around doing nowt whilst we're cooking our arse off. And I'm sure as hell not making 100 people lunch all on my

I'd be happy to volunteer, but my Warden hasn't been around a whole lot.

[christ_onabike]

Then go talk to Rube? Or just turn up at lunch or something. He's not going to turn you down.

[born_in_blood]

Got it.

[christ_onabike]

Ta, mate.

Who are you, anyway?

[born_in_blood]

Dexter Morgan. Relative new Inmate, admittedly bored since my Warden hasn't endeavored to assign me anything.

You?

[christ_onabike]

I assigned myself before mine set me cleaning toilets or something. Which now I'm doing anyway...

Paddy Maguire. You're not one of these weird superpowered fuckers are you?

[born_in_blood]

Normal guy from Miami; three kids, a wife, and a job at the police station. No fangs or glowing eyes or electric bolts shooting from my hands. I like pulled pork sandwiches and my boat. Are you?

Have you always had the same Warden? I hear it changes pretty often around here.

[christ_onabike]

Ah, thank fuck for that. There's too few of us around here. Normal guy from Manchester (well, Belfast, but I've lived in Manchester since forever), seven kids, a wife and... a business. So pretty normal, yeah.

I've had three. One's now an inmate himself. I'm just that good.

[born_in_blood]

The onset of stuff I've been told has never and can never exist is pretty unsettling. It's been an... adjustment.

I've talked to Rube. I'll be working lunch, so there's that. Thanks for the heads-up.

[christ_onabike]

It takes a while, and I still don't think it's fucking fair.

I'll see you there, then.
