I get that this place is supposed to be a second chance. Some all-powerful superbeing picks and chooses who gets to be locked up forever, and we're all supposed to be happy about it, 'cause golly! We're not deadBut life's a bitch and sometimes bad stuff just happens. Maybe dying at twenty-four wasn't in my plans, but I screwed up and that's what I

I could not agree more, mademoiselle.

[cautionarystory]

Yeah? I think we're in the minority.

[Severen: picking up on the important discourses of Elle's post]

24, huh? Now, darlin', you don't look a day older than 21.

[cautionarystory]

Well gee, aren't you sweet. But I bet you talk that way to all the girls.

[yeehawkiller]

Only the pretty ones, darlin'.

[cautionarystory]

What's your name?

[warrenwhite]

Yeah, the sentiments pretty common here. Did you at least die in an exciting way?

[cautionarystory]

... No. I got shot.

[warrenwhite]

Yeah, that's pretty boring. I might have got shot too, I don't really remember. It's a bit hard when people start doing things behind your back.

[cautionarystory]

Nothing comes after death. You just die.

[darknessb4me]

Wanting out of here is one thing - but the fact is, there is nowhere to go. You're right. You just die. I don't suppose you remember what it was like to just die.

[cautionarystory]

It can't possibly be worse than this.

[talldarksaviour]

Well said.

[Private]

[cautionarystory]

Thanks. Do I know you?

[Private]

[talldarksaviour]

Ah, still with the forgetting then. Yes, we're... friends. I'm just down the hall.

[Private]

[cautionarystory]

What's your name, friend?
