} 031 - because I was sick and missed port :/

Jun 21, 2011 23:01

Scanning through all of your self-pitying entries now, it occurs to me that I should probably be thanking my body for picking the ideal time for my first Barge coma. Far better to be unconscious than spend yet another port watching you ineffectually fall to pieces.

[LOL not really. She's freaked out by the idea that she can spontaneously fall ( Read more... )

Nobody's fucked with you since then?

Surprisingly, no. [Scoffing.] I think I stunned them into a pitied silence.

How are you feeling?

Better that than the alternative, in this case.

Focused. More clear-headed than I've been in a long time.

It certainly was a shocking display of tact from the peanut gallery.

I think you're the first to report that after a "Barge coma."

Knowing what I'd woken from caused me to reflect upon certain things, and helped me realize the answers to questions I'd been asking myself for a while.

[A beat.]

It'd better not ever fuckin' happen again, though.

A few days away from Hoffman helped, too, I'm sure.

Agreed. The entire thing is disconcerting.

I wouldn't know, considering I slept through it.

[She may as well have been dead...and that idea is what got her attention.]

I'm glad I missed port anyway. People turning into fuckin' drug dealers and god knows what else.

And slavers, too, it would seem. Overall, the port was enjoyable, though.

The chance of becoming some kind of druggie again was there, and it's not a risk I'm comfortable with. Being comatose is preferable to that.

You said you brought back shit from port. You gonna tell me what it is?

[Shudder.] Excellent point.

Basic engineering tools, for the most part. Some harmless devices to take apart.

Devices are only as harmless as you want them to be.

Precisely.

But I have no intention of risking my position here. [YET.]

Just don't repeat your past mistakes, and you'll be fine.

[Such as subjecting her to whatever he might do, for example. It's implied in her tone of voice.]

Contrary to some inmates, I do learn from my past mistakes.

Glad to hear it.

...I don't suppose you brought back any medical supplies? Gauze and antiseptic, specifically.
