[ And a few seconds later, Kid Blue switches to the video feed because honestly, fuck reading and writing. That shit's for losers and also people who are good at it and weren't raised on the streets. Mostly losers. Shhh, it's what he tells himself to help him sleep at night. ]

Right. Here's somethin' I don't get. What the fuck happened?

No--seriously. What the fuck is with this place? I ain't "repenting" for nothing. [ Air quotes included. ]

And more importantly: when do I get my gat back? I'm gonna do no one good if I don't have a gun.

[There's suddenly a lot of new people showing up all in a short time period. He's not sure what to make of it.]

We call it the Barge. It's a prison ship, traveling through space and time. [He does kind of eye the guy warily at the mention of his "gat." That sounds kind of ominous.]

And if you don't know how you got here then...probably not anytime soon.

[kidblue]

That's bullshit. Who set up the rules, punk? I don't have time for this, I need to get back, none of this "repentence" shit.

[voluntaryapnea]

That'd be the Admiral. Take it up with him.

[kidblue]

Anyone ever say anythin' about takin' over this thing themselves?

[voluntaryapnea]

Not since I've been here. And probably not a great idea to try.

[kidblue]

Don't know unless you can fuckin' get at it, right? Y'gotta be smarter than that.

[voluntaryapnea]

[Oh boy.]

Right. Well. Good luck then.
