[The screen switches on, revealing a face caked in dirt, covered in dust, streaked with sweat, and smeared with blood. A pair of troubled, if clear, blue eyes look out from it, and then there's a shake of the head, followed by a swirl of long, messy blonde hair – underneath all the grime, the new arrival's a female. She gives a bright smile, the sight slightly disarming on such a gritty face.]

Hi. [Her voice cracks when she speaks and she coughs, then clears her throat.]

Sorry to bother you folks, but it appears I've got some new business to attend to and I'm a little out of sorts. [Her smile turns apologetic, a little self-deprecating. It might be cute if she didn't look like an adult female approximation of Peanuts' Pigpen.] If one of you would be so kind as to point me toward the showers, I'd be in your debt.

[One last thing: her voice lowers, the sparkle gone from her eyes.] Budd... If you're here, I'll find you.

I think I would have thought twice about making that deal with the warden if I had known about all of that fun.

[ How does she put the next part gently? There's no way. Never mind she didn't add that wardens can leave anytime. ] I wish I had better news for you, Beth, but I'm afraid completing the program is the only way.

Fun? What fun? Don't tell me people enjoy this.

[Reaching up to massage her temples, she sighs.] So that's it. We're just stuck in this trans-dimensional limbo at an unknown entity's whim.

demigoddess

Oh, no. Sorry. That was me being sarcast. I know, I'm not very good at it.

Well not exactly, how long it will take to leave is really up to you. I don't know what you're here for, but you seem nice, like a good person. Maybe it won't take you that long. [ But she doesn't want to be rude and assume she know someone based on one conversation. ]

From:

deadliestviper

No, I'm sorry. With all the weird shit I'm hearing about that's not the hardest thing to believe.

[Hesitating before speaking, she cants her head.] I don't know about "nice" but "good" is an aspiration. Just, and no offense, I'm skeptical whether this place will be able to help with that.

Maybe you'll find a warden who understands you better than you expected anyone could. [ Shrug. ] All I know is this place has worked for people

From:

deadliestviper

Maybe. [Yeah fuckin' right. Like she was going to open up to some cub scout and let them fuck around with her life.] I understand that, but what has worked for some people doesn't always work for me.
