Are you all finished with the introspection yet?  No?  [Theatric roll of his eyes.]  All of this existential musing is just... boring.  Do any of you honestly think you're saying something novel, something that hasn't been said time and time again on the Barge?  Goodness!  It's as though you've never stolen someone else's body before!  [Pause.  He ( Read more... )

You're criticizing my predictable response to your unoriginal post about how repetetive everyone else is being.

I could respond about how many people make a point of how unoffended they are by replies to their boring posts, rather than actually countering the points made.

You could probably find many other instances of many other people saying the same thing to different inhabitants of the barge.

I could say that people around here are always trying to distract one another from the original point.

You could say that wardens accuse inmates of doing that all the time.

Infinite loop.

[HMMMM. SHOULD HE TRY FOR THE SALE? IS IT THE WARDENLY THING TO DO TO SELL STUFF TO THE MASTER?]

Were you looking for anything in particular, Comrade?

[Maybe he'll say no, and Prefect can just try to sell him EVERYTHING.]

[Long pause.]

[LONGEST PAUSE]

[Then, TEXT!]

Extenuating Circumstance clauses:

1) If my inmate requires I talk to her, then I need to be able to talk to her.

2) I need to be able to call for medical assistance.

2b) Once medical assistance has been enlisted, this circumstance would not extend to me having to reveal any details about the injury or injuries requiring treatment.

2b) Aren't you demanding? OH, ALRIGHT! Done.

Deal.

I will present you with a receipt, and initiate the period of silence upon payment.
