ok listen up, this is actually legitimately important

if this is your first time getting locked up like this, you need to understand one main thing going forward: our lives are less than worthless to these people. every second we're still breathing is a second more than they needed to give us.

i can't promise that we're going to be okay. i don't know if ALASTAIR gives enough of a shit to come for us. but even though i'm not gonna be the guy who has a lot of pretty words to say to keep hope alive or whatever, i do know a few things about staying safe in here. surviving, if this is for the long haul

1) don't make a fuss or be a nuisance to the guards. don't draw attention. the more forgettable you are, the better off you'll be

2) try to avoid using your jewel comms as much as you can. if they realize we're communicating through these, they'll be confiscated

3) DON'T TRY TO BE A HERO. this is the most important point here so i'm gonna repeat it, DO NOT TRY TO BE A FUCKING HERO.

we're not in a fucking action movie, trying to escape or break everyone out will get you in deep ass shit, maybe even made an example out of. don't fucking do it.

yeah, it'll be a regular party

[Kagari doesn't find it particularly funny, either way.]

[ofobedience]

Perhaps it would liven things up. It's terribly dull around here.

[...although after six days in solitary confinement, he might change his tune a little...]

[hedonistic]

okay this isn't normally my style and all
but i will admit
i am ok with dull in this one particular situation

[He lived 'dull' for the large majority of his life, until he got to become an Enforcer. Dull sucks, but he'd rather things be dull than for excitement to come in the form of their situation getting worse.]/small>

[ofobedience]

You do have a point. And yet, I wouldn't mind seeing just a little bit of action.

[hedonistic]

idk
the only action i'm into seeing around here is ALASTAIR showing up with reinforcements
but i'm not gonna hold my breath on that one

[ofobedience]

No, best not to, I'd say. Ha ha. But despite your advice, I think it's inevitable that a break out will be orchestrated sooner or later, if they fail to show.

[hedonistic]

pretty much
whether they're going to survive the attempt is a lot murkier, though

[And believe it or not, he doesn't actually want his teammates to die.]

[ofobedience]

It does appear to be quite the challenge, yes.

[No weapons, even their particular skills seem to have little effect-- it's not the bleakest situation he's ever been in, but certainly not the brightest, either]

[hedonistic]

hmph
i'm as competitive as the next guy, but some challenges should just be left alone

[ofobedience]

And yet that's unlikely to happen. Ha ha.

[hedonistic]

lucky us

[ofobedience]

Lucky us, indeed.
