I'm messing up with my inmate and I don't know how to fix it.

You, um.
Are you...busy?

Date: 2013-09-02 04:29 am (UTC)Actually doing damage? ...have you been forcing him to change? Manipulating him?

Date: 2013-09-02 02:44 pm (UTC)...No. No, I don't....think so?

Date: 2013-09-02 05:36 pm (UTC)Some assumptions are so big the bandage has to come off fast, or it just keeps re-adhering. ...Not sure where that analogy went just now. I don't know he's got any of those, but I did. I needed to know early on I couldn't just escape, like I'd escaped every other prison.
If he has something like that, it's gotta be fast and hard and it's gonna suck for him. If he doesn't... just keep nudging him.
No guarantee, but let me tell you, I spent a lot of time acting like I was ignoring my wardens. I listened. Small things stuck with me.

Date: 2013-09-02 09:05 pm (UTC)If he's like me, there's nothing you can say. You just-- keep looking out for him. Be consistent. Be honest. Manipulative assholes like us can tell pretty well when someone's being themselves.
You may need to demonstrate some kind of authority, though. Don't let him run you over. Because then you'll be weak and honest. It was strong and honest I didn't know what to do with.

Date: 2013-09-02 09:06 pm (UTC)I'm not honest with him. I don't. He doesn't know what I can do.
Re: [Private]
Date: 2013-09-02 09:08 pm (UTC)I said honest, not stupid. You don't give him every secret in your life. But you present yourself as who you are. Which you do, Ned. You're neurotic and moral and determined and a little tired, and that's what you show the world.

Date: 2013-09-02 09:10 pm (UTC)I can be strong in certain specific situations. I'm not a coward. I just. I don't like being...loud and boisterous and in-your-face.
Re: [Private]
Date: 2013-09-02 09:13 pm (UTC)So don't. The specific situations will come up and you'll be strong in them.
You aren't a coward, Ned. You really aren't.

Date: 2013-09-02 09:25 pm (UTC)Are you ready for him to do something real, real shitty?

Date: 2013-09-02 09:29 pm (UTC)A lot of us have pulled that shit. You saw what Creed did; Arthas turned people into zombies, raised hell on the ship. I tortured a warden during an escape attempt. Sociopaths and criminals don't pull punches.

Date: 2013-09-02 09:31 pm (UTC)I fucking hate it, I don't want you in there.
It's not a bad plan.
