Dr Jonathan Crane. [A pause.] I would be particularly interested in individuals that used to be on the barge, if any of you are out there.

Frustration. Resentment. Petty, unhelpful emotions.

[Private]

[preachyrose.livejournal.com]

My dear Jonathan, those emotions are helpful.

[Private]

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

In what way are they helpful?

[Private]

[preachyrose.livejournal.com]

By letting you know what something means to you. Frustrating because you want to leave, don't you? Resentment because others have left that you felt unworthy of leaving.

Am I close?

[Private]

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

You're close. I sometimes wonder why you're not a warden on the barge. You'd be better than any of these people.

[Private]

[preachyrose.livejournal.com]

I'm a teacher, if you've forgotten.

But I've things to do here.

[Private]

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

I know. And honestly, you'd have to be insane to willingly come back here.

[Private]

[preachyrose.livejournal.com]

I would come back for you. But now that Howie has left, I truly have no reason to return.

[Private]

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

I understand. You need to live your life.

[Private]

[preachyrose.livejournal.com]

I do wish you could come here.

[Private]

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

It's an impossible thing to wish for, sadly.

[Private]

[preachyrose.livejournal.com]

As impossible as your graduation?

[Private]

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

Do you think that my graduating is impossible?

[Private]

[preachyrose.livejournal.com]

No, but I think you are beginning to believe that.

[Private]

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

I certainly used to. It might be impossible with Iago as my warden.
