I have spent the better part of the last few days reflecting on our time spent in the much changed world of the flood. I too was affected. I seemed to be a weaker man in many ways, but perhaps a kinder one. I do not believe him so far from myself. I do not believe that any of our counterparts were so far from us. If we are to believe that man has an innate capability for the highest good acts and for the basest evils, I think we must acknowledge such capacity within ourselves. We must acknowledge that we have all in part had the potential to become a saint or to choose the path of a monster. We are not so different from each other, nor were we so very different from our other selves that we encountered.

[He pauses.] By my own words, I have taken a path of a monster before. So it goes. I am yet to decide if such mantles can be easily shrugged off, although the Admiral believes it to be so.

[He continues on, sounding slightly more upbeat.] On that note, I would like the congratulate the lady with the purple hairpiece. I had assumed that it was some variety of modern hat, yet it seems that it is the hair itself. As well is it being a feat of modern science, it is both "cool" and "sweet", as the people of the future would say.

I note that my things have been returned. The Admiral is more kind than I had expected.

I have expressed to my warden my desire to move to the engine room as my place of work. My mind is not entirely resolved, but I would like to hear your feelings on the matter and assure you that this is in no way connected to my warden's views of the place.

technology what now, equality being acknowledged, crazy modern world, feeling bad, olde timey, creatures are kind of okay, down with the kids, being a hermit crab, zen, determinator
