I am somehow not surprised that the majority of people on the barge seem to have terrible parents. The sheer amount of dysfunction is staggering.

Although I would like to recommend that all parents examine our filter system. I have a feeling that your offspring would appreciate it. I also have my own filters back, with some supervision. [Crane doesn't even sound bothered. He's too pleased with having even some filters back.]

[Private - Eddie Nygma (+Eames)]

Eames supervised, mind you. Is there anyone you know here? There seems to be quite the parade of citizens from your Gotham.

[Private - Eames]

I keep on getting offered things.

What sorts of things?

Private

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

Weapons, a warden item. It's quite awkward.

Private

[aforger]

From who?

Private

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

People's parents. It's an awkward situation since I'm relatively sure the things they're offering are generally things that a warden is supposed to have.

Private

[aforger]

Accept them, if you can, and give them to me. Otherwise they'll only be offered to others.

What are they asking in return?

Private

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

Well, if you insist.

For the most part, it seems to be based on their own amusement. Or some plot that they haven't explained to me.

Private - Ohwait. Eames is all up in your filters and can read ALL THE THINGS.

[aforger]

Is there a need for me to read the conversation, or can I trust you?

Private

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

You can if you like. It makes no difference to me.

[yourunichase]

Too fucking right.

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

I don't suppose that we could put them all in zero until they disappear?

[yourunichase]

Probably not. Besides, some of them may kill one another if we lock 'em in a small space.

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

Unless their child ends up deathtolling, I hardly think that's any great loss on our part.

[yourunichase]

Someone'd whine about it when they got turned back.

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

I'm sure they would. Even if the parent had it coming.

[yourunichase]

[Mutter]

And a lot of them do.

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

The majority of them do. Anyone with eyes and ears knows that.

[Sorry, bb, Eddie's in a barge coma until Monday.]

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

[Lolol, coma Eddie. c:]

Doctor Crane, is it?

Private; Video.

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

Yes? You're a parent, I take it?

Private; Video.

[some-kinda-hero.livejournal.com]

Yes, I'm Meredith Gordon. I'm Claire's mother.

Private; Video.

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

Of course you are. Are you enjoying the barge so far?

Private; Video.

[some-kinda-hero.livejournal.com]

Not sure if that's a compliment or not, and that's neither here nor there. I'm curious, based off previous entries of hers, what your relationship with my daughter is. Seems sorta back and forth. One minute you're saving her life and the next you're showing a public execution of a friend of hers. [perks a brow.]

Private; Video.

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

I didn't know he was her friend, in my defense. [But he had guessed.] But yes, as you've noted, it's rather complicated.

Private; Video.

[some-kinda-hero.livejournal.com]

Has she tried to fix you, too?
