It seems as if we should all be homesick. Constantly. Writhing with agony over the fact that we are here instead of with our friends. Our...family. And yet, we accept this place so easily in our minds and we continue to endure this punishment time and time again.

Actually this is slower than home for me. But you're right. Most of the time I'd rather be there.

Is the deal you made simply that important?

most_feared February 13 2011, 14:36:33 UTC
Yeah, it is. [Even if I want to kick my deal in the ass sometimes.] It about has to be to keep us here. Even those that don't have anywhere to go home to can probably find loopholes.

Of course. Though I'm not sure most of the population could find those loopholes.

Understood.

Are you quite alright?

Of course. I have no reason to feel otherwise. The Barge has been... unobjectionable of late. [LOL LYING.]

You're generalizing. You shouldn't generalize.

Maybe not.

But it's less dangerous than admitting boredom.

I guess I'll give you that one. Saying something like that sort of guarantees a bad port or flood.

That's not really something I want to go through right now.

I have better friends here. They don't turn on me and kill me.

And that's worth everything the Admiral throws at you?

Inmate here, remember? I don't have a say in whether I'm here or not, so I don't really think about whether it's 'worth it', I just mean that it keeps me from being 'homesick'.

So it's not worth it?
