[now filtered to: security team, Kahlan, Kaylee, Tony, Bartleby, Jack Durden, Libby, and Daniel]Now we have a riot on our hands, guys. As if we need more proof that the system here doesn't work

I am fully prepared and I wait only for your word.

[whatweoncewere]

Thank you. As soon as I know anything, I'll tell you guys.

[lastconfessor]

I'll be ready if it turns into a fight. I hope we can settle this rationally.

[whatweoncewere]

So do I.

You know how to handle a weapon?

[lastconfessor]

I'm well experienced fighting with daggers. Not many D'Haran soldiers have fought me and lived.

[whatweoncewere]

Good. Then come along with the security team. More able-bodied hands can't hurt.

First of all, maybe acting like a place with seventy plus inhabitants is "Your house" is part of what caused this problem.

Second of all? Be more careful with your filters. We do have some Wardens journals in here.

[ANONYMOUS TIPSTER. Okay, so it's Ethan, he just thought there'd be a big crazy fight, and now they're all organized and it bothers him, so he's being just a tiny bit treacherous.]

I live here, same as you. It's all our house, but you people aren't treating it like one.

Thanks for the advice.

Warden filter minus hostages and Sam

[humanityproven]

Bullshit. It's a prison for us, this whole thing has been building for months. You have no idea how many times you've dodged this bullet because none of you ever listened.

I don't know that I like this. It was inevitable though. As is it's failure.

What you, as a collective do afterward will be the key to whether or not this ever happens again.

[whatweoncewere]

Look, I don't know who you are, but I'm not having this argument with you right now.

Yes, something like this was inevitable. Because no one around here knows how to talk to anybody else.

Now either help me or stop talking to me.

[tadwizard]

I'll help if you need it, but I think we should have more of a plan than you talking to them, then we attack. Something like that could just end up getting the hostages hurt. Maybe we could look into ways to free the hostages without an open attack.

Unless we've got someone who can turn invisible, I don't think sneaking around is going to help.

Know anyone like that?

Re: Private

[tadwizard]

I can do that.

Private

[whatweoncewere]

Then head down to the cafeteria. Stay quiet and invisible. If I can work this out by talking to them, that how I want to do it, but if I need your help I want you there.

We'll need a signal that I want you to move in. If it looks like things aren't working out, I'll say, "Can't we work this out over a cup of coffee?"

Libby's in the infirmary with Dru and Barney...and only she knows that her laptop is her journal!

[Private to Angel]

The walls have ears, Angel.

The Master has Sam's journal. Sam and Prefect are dead. I don't know how many other journals with warden access they have.

Private

[whatweoncewere]

Thanks for letting me know. Are you alright?

Private

[thatlibbychick]

Drugged to hell, tortured, and currently in Drusilla's care. She and Barney are taking care of me, and we're away from the dining hall. Neither of them are responsible for hurting me. Take care of the hostages.

But if you see the Master...kill him. And don't make it quick.

Private

[whatweoncewere]

As soon as this is resolved, I'll come find you. Can the three of you make it to the infirmary? I don't know how qualified Barney is, but if there are any casualties I'd like someone there to look after them.
