[This time when the video turns on, Beatrix is well-groomed and polished; she's dressed in a very feminine suit with a nametag reading BETH S. on the lapel, is wearing makeup, and her hair is pulled back in a ponytail. Her smile is bright, easy, and full. In both name and deed, she's here on Official Business.]
Ahoy! – That's the right terminology, right? I've never been on one of these things before. [She winces, a little self-deprecatingly.] Uh, anyway, hello there, I thought I'd better introduce myself since I'm going to be working with a few of you. My name's Beth Solberg, I'm a social worker, and I'm just here to check in on the staff and residents, ask a few questions, basically make sure everything on the Barge here is up to snuff.
So yes, I'll be speaking with a few of you. Let me assure you, you don't have to answer any questions you don't want to. I'm not here to interrogate, I just want to get the gist of the situation. And it is an unusual situation here, so any comments, complains, you've got about the place, this is the time to talk.
I'm setting up shop in the – what's this place called? That's it, library, no special term? Okay – I'm in the library for the next day, just stop on in. [She pauses, lifting a pen to her lips as she consults a clipboard.] Oh, and I've got a couple people I need to check in with – newer ones specifically. If none of you mind doing this in reverse alphabetical order, may I speak to a... Ms. Reese?
[OOC: So since I forgot to say earlier, this flood B.B. got marginalized. Beatrix still got pregnant, still had the baby, just never hid her pregnancy from Bill or ran away to Texas. As such she's still very much an active member of the Assassination Squad, with the events of the movie never happening. The social work thing? Just a ruse to get in the same room withher current target Natasha.]

Date: 2012-06-14 10:49 am (UTC)About twenty minutes later there's a man-struggling to push in the doors to the library. He manages-but looks shaken as he watches them close. Shaking his head he runs a hand through his hair.
There she is. Pretty blonde social worker. He waves nervously, throws his shoulders back and puts on prison rules. Eyes straight ahead, head back, chest out. When he gets to her he slumps.]
...Still don't trust this place.

[Nodding, she settles down into her own chair, hands resting on her clipboard. It'd be rude to take notes while he was talking for one thing, and she needs them at the ready for the other.] It's not easy adjusting to a new institution like this. I imagine it's quite a shock.

Date: 2012-06-14 06:51 pm (UTC)[But serious] ...I dunno, there's some kind of magic here. My lawyer's good, but...getting me to stay here?
no subject
Date: 2012-06-14 07:00 pm (UTC)[She shrugs.] As I said before, it's not a promise. Just a possibility. What happens depends on your success in the programs here and what the authorities think. All you can do is give it your best shot, and enjoy it while you're here.

[He folds his hands together and looks down before looking back at her] ...Shoe'll drop in time.

Date: 2012-06-14 07:10 pm (UTC)A murder's a debt to be repaid to society. It doesn't make you irredeemable.
The shoe always does. Brace yourself, I'll help you through it. [God she hopes this Reese woman doesn't show up halfway through this conversation. It'd be really awkward to kill her in front of this guy.]

You'll work with me? I mean you can take my case?
no subject
Date: 2012-06-14 07:27 pm (UTC)I'll do what I can, Mark. Like I said, I'm only here temporarily, but I am here for you.
