[4] My inmate is a stubborn old man.

Beatty! Congratulations! You've got yourself a job on Custodial Duty starting tomorrow morning. Enjoy!

[Warden Filter]If Beatty asks for anything, please don't give it to him. He doesn't take me seriously as his warden, so I want everything to go through me. I wouldn't put it past him to try to do whatever he can to avoid dealing with me,

As the librarian I've already taken it upon myself to make it clear to him that I won't tolerate any book burning, to which he behaved as if my suspicions were unwarranted and rude.

Suffice to say I'll be keeping my own eye on him if he comes around.

Ugh, yes. He's given me that attitude as well--and thanks to O'Brien, he's come to adopt the idea that books just don't exist and he can't burn something that doesn't exist. And even standing in front of a pile of ashes, they claim there was no fire because there was no book and so they see no ashes--it's enough to drive you mad.

But thank you. I'll do my best to keep him far from it, though I don't really think he'll go there unless it's exactly for the reasons we don't want.

I'm Cissie, by the way. I don't think we've met.

[Warden Filter] Absolutely! :D

[tartaned]

I tend to ignore that sort of thing from O'Brien, so I encourage you to do the same with Beatty.

I'm sure you'll do your best, but we can't be entirely responsible for our inmates. Aziraphale; pleasure to meet you, Cissie.

[Warden Filter] Woo! \o/

[notarrowette]

I'll do my best. At this point, he thinks I'm an insane little girl, but I don't think I mind being underestimated. Leaves room to surprise him.

Thank you. It's very nice to meet you, too.

[tartaned]

He does seem to underestimate everyone, but as you said, that can only be to our advantage.

If I can help at all, just let me know, my dear.
