017 - Humble

[deadly_ned]

Just.

Just an informal head-count.

How many inmates don't like the rooms they've been given?

And how...can wardens move to change it to make the living quarters more habitable? Besides the bathroom....thing. This especially concerns unpaired inmates.

Inquiring minds wish to know. I'm thinking...Extreme Make-Over: Barge edition. And possibly sectioning off a budget for inmates to use to rearrange their rooms how they like it.

Thoughts...?

All someone's got to do is ask a friend to ask to fix the place up.

Though who knows if he'll answer.

[deadly_ned]

I haven't seen him answer. I don't think the Admiral talks to me.

[surrenders]

I think he likes to pick and choose.

Usually doesn't say anything, sometimes he just does it. Had to take care of the problem you were asking about a while back, didn't say, just did.

[mattersverymuch]

Really?

[deadly_ned]

Yes.

Yes, really. Some of us are uncomfortable about the idea of people living in sewers.

[mattersverymuch]

I told you to leave it alone. I meant it.

[itstopped]

I had my quarters changed. [Twice, actually.] My ex-warden asked the Admiral and he decided to allow it, I assume on a whim.

[deadly_ned]

Do we really want to rely on the Admiral's whim for redecorating needs? I feel as though he'd only take the opportunity to do something horrible.

Said the man who lives on his ship, eats his food, does his work, and draws his checks.

[routemistress]

It's a thing we can request off the Admiral, Ned love. And I mean to by day's end.

[deadly_ned]

You mean to for...?

[filtered: Ned/Cain]

[routemistress]

Victor and me've got an arrangement about that. 'E doesn't disembowel Megamind too bad, I sort 'im out with a better living space.

Between you and me I'd've done it sooner or later anyway, but this way it's a thing we achieve working together. Baby steps.

[anewlanguage]

Never thought about it. Guess I'd be happy if my room had thicker walls.

[He hums, looking around (he's got the lights dimmed because he's rather hungover).]

It's pretty bleak in here, now you mention it.

[deadly_ned]

Neighbors are noisy?


Yes. Yes, it is. Can we...fix that?

[anewlanguage]

Don't forget the guys who can bust through solid doors.

Sure. You got a color scheme already planned or what?

[fridgetothefire]

I hated mine when I arrived.

Although, in fairness, I'm not sure there was anywhere he could have pulled from my memories that I wouldn't have hated.

Lua got me a new room ages ago, but. If you're taking statistics on it.

[deadly_ned]

It was more an estimation of an immediate problem. Not that I don't appreciate the insight.

[surfaceshine]

Well, there's always the good old fashioned way. There is a Maintenance department, and... well, yay team building?

[deadly_ned]

Dean.


Dean, the Marquis lives in a sewer.

Did you know about this?

[surfaceshine]

I uh.

Yeah?

[fire_punk]

It's a room. Why does it matter?

voice

[deadly_ned]

It's a home. A room's not a home even if a home can be a room.

voice

[fire_punk]

That doesn't make sense.

[godsays]

I'd rather something else, I think.

[deadly_ned]

What would you rather?
