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...?

It's been a long time since I was a kid.

But it looks like you do the same thing now you learned then.

Adults don't even take it like you did.

I tend to internalize most of my problems and let out steam a little bit at a time. I hold grudges but I'm not an angry person.

[Look who handles her problems the same way, Ned.]

Don't think it's a "grudge" if you got a real reason.

A real reason like my father abandoning me when I was ten?

He was all you had, right?

My mother died the week before.

So technically yes.

I'm sorry.

...think it'd still hurt.

It's not a grudge if you're not hurting someone else over it.

It's fine. It's. It was a long time ago.

I sort of did end up hurting someone but not in a way I thought would happen.
