[Morning, Open]

[Oh ho, what a fine and bright morning it is! Prefect and Barron are chatting as they wander up the corridor, hoping to run into their first victim.]

[Prefect sees The Doctor, and in one quick movement, shoves Barron forward, with one hand planted hard in the middle of his back.]

Him. Do him. Quickly, before he runs!

[Morning, Open]

[sharpememory]

[That was not the most subtle way Barron had ever approached a mark. He turned around the glare at Prefect, hoping the Doctor hadn't noticed. He smiled as he walked over to the Doctor, trying to appear non-threatening.]

Well, you're up early, aren't you?

[Mid-Morning, Open]

[sharpememory]

[Barron's waiting in the fourth floor common room, all set with instructions from Prefect to change the memories of the next person he sees. As far as Barron's concerned, this is still great fun and games.]

[Mid-Morning, Open]

[acertifieduser]

[Eddie wanders into the common room, oblivious to any other persons present. He's looking for one of his books that he misplaced the night before and he's searching rabidly for it. It was, after all, something he was considering gifting to Jane.]

[Mid-Morning, Open]

[sharpememory]

[Barron grins as he walks straight up to the guy who seems to be wandering reasonably aimlessly around the common room, as far as Barron can tell.]

Hey, man. [Barron said, grinning.] What are you doing?

[Mid-Morning]

[acertifieduser]

[Eddie jumps slightly at the sound of another voice and looks up with a momentary panic to Barron. He then laughs at himself and presses a hand to his heart with a 'you got me!' sort of relieved expression.]

"Sorry! Hey. Wow, you came out of nowhere." [Another laugh.] "I'm looking for a book I lost."

[Lunch, Open]

[sharpememory]

[Prefect and Barron are at a table in the dining hall. Barron just wants to eat lunch, but the next person who walks by or does something noticeable? Well, they might just get pointed out by Prefect.]

[Hoffman has made sure that his warden is okay. Lupin kind was a change, a welcome change, an almost scary change. That was the only thing that was keeping him going.

He said he'd get him out. That's what he's thinking about as he sits carefully at a table near to Prefect and Barron.]

[Lunch, Open]

[sharpememory]

[Barron glances over at Prefect for a look of approval, before standing up and moving to Hoffman's table, sitting down without invitation.]

Hey, Hoffman. [Barron said, hoping to hell that Hoffman was flood affected. Hoffman was one of the few inmates on the barge that normally actively scared him.] How's it going?

Re: [Lunch, Open]

[expectremorse]

[Hoffman glared at him, something feral swirled out of his gaze before it curled back and he looked defeated. A dog with his tale between his legs.]

Fine. My warden's in a coma and he said to keep my nose clean so.

[Another bite of the sandwich. This Hoffman's physically fitter, so his lunch is considerably smaller.]

[Afternoon, Barron and Prefect]

[sharpememory]

[Barron's sitting in the common room, ostensibly waiting for another person. But since there's no one about, he decides to talk to Prefect about his growing concerns.]

Isn't that enough people for today?

[Afternoon, Barron and Prefect]

[buywithme]

[Enough? Prefect gives a little cackle at the idea.]

No, or yes. There's no quota to fill, Barron. We just keep going until somebody stops us, or there's no one left to work.

[Afternoon, Barron and Prefect]

[sharpememory]

So, what? Do you want control of the barge? [It wouldn't be possible to work that many people, but Barron didn't let his anxiety show. He tried to keep the tone of the conversation casual.]

[Afternoon, Barron and Prefect]

[buywithme]

[Prefect shook his head, and tickled the back of Barron's neck, his expression slightly bored.] Of course not. I just want you, to graduate!

[Evening, Open]

[sharpememory]

[Barron's in a terrible mood. He's thoroughly sick of changing memories, but has decided to do the next person that comes by. Just to prove a point to Prefect. He's sitting on the stairs in between the first and second floor, waiting for the next person who comes by.]

Re: [Evening, Open]

[Eddie spots Barron and remembers to put gloves on. He slips them onto his hands carefully before walking over to him,] Have you seen your warden, Barron? I'd like a word with him.

[Evening, Open]

[sharpememory]

[Barron notes the way Eddie puts on his gloves. Ah. So someone, at least, had remembered the numerous warnings that Prefect had one given the wardens.]

What do you want to talk to him about? [Barron said flatly, not moving to get to his feet. He was tired, bone tired. He'd worked too much today.]

Re: [Evening, Open]

[needshumility]

My inmate.

[He raised an eyebrow,] You seen him?
