[7] - Belated Flood Reaction [Video, Public]

[doctor_j_crane]

[Crane is in his room, and visible next to him is a stack of books, with titles pointedly turned away from the camera.]

Well, I’m not really sure what to say.

[Beat, in which Crane looks pensive. But only for a second.]

No, actually, I know exactly what I want to say.

To the “Riddler”, you are without a doubt the worst warden on the entire barge. It’s wonderful that you’re willing to convince someone who’s clearly flood affected to try and jump off the deck. Next you thing you know, you’ll probably just be killing inmates on your own steam. That’s more effective, isn’t it?

Adric, it’s just chess. You clearly have some kind of obsessive personality to make it into some huge issue. Move on.

Libby, no one on the barge cares about your relationship and apparently sexual dysfunction. That is not something that anyone needs to hear.


To the other denizens of the barge, especially all the new ones, welcome to your life. Prepare for floods of varying varieties that tell you exactly what you didn’t want to know about your fellow inmates and wardens. If you’ve got a problem with it, I’d suggest taking it to the Admiral, but we don’t exactly see a lot of him.



[Private to Jack Tyler]

Thanks. [Crane looks as if saying that is causing him physical pain.]

[Private to Ms. Rose]

I am sorry about not talking to you earlier. I’ve been… indisposed. Thank you though, for being one of the few people in the flood to keep a level head about you.

[Private to Max]

I’m just getting some things off my chest. That’s not going to be a problem, is it?



OCC: PHPHPH I haven’t done my final exam, and I know I say this every time I post, but I am actually slow timing. Really. I just wanted to make sure this was up well before port. Also, sorry for the long post. >___>

Sexual dysfunction. What fucking nonsense is that, you dick?

Crane logic: no one is allowed to use the 'I was drunk' excuse except for him. :D

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

Her grand announcement to the barge clearly indicates some underlying issues. I'm not going to analyse them though. That would be rude, wouldn't it?

[christ-onabike.livejournal.com]

Or, perhaps she was pissed, and declaring she loved that bloke, no matter how fucking fat he was. Because some people seem to think loving a fat bloke and wanting to fuck him is a fucking problem.

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

I was more disturbed by the fact that the announcement existed. Not it's content, which I am now attempting to repress. I wasn't referring to the 'fat bloke' bit.

[christ-onabike.livejournal.com]

She was fucking drunk. Some people talk about sex when they're drunk. It fucking happens.

Grow up.

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

Who made you her babysitter? If she wants to tell me that, she can tell me herself. It's none of your business.

[christ-onabike.livejournal.com]

I just don't like the fucking implication that wanting to fuck fat people makes you fucking dysfunctional.

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

It wasn't about the fat people. If it was about that, half the world would be dysfunctional. It was about her grand announcement of all the wonderful sex that she's been having. That's not something I ever wanted to think about, nor something that should just be bellowed around the barge.

[christ-onabike.livejournal.com]

I object to the fucking implication that people who talk about sex when they're drunk are fucking dysfunctional too.

Again, half the fucking world would be dysfunctional.

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

Paddy, I have to say, you seem particularly angry today. Is something wrong?

[christ-onabike.livejournal.com]

I'm grand, thanks.

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

It just seemed to hit a sore spot. Trouble at home?

[christ-onabike.livejournal.com]

I haven't been home since I fucking graduated. So... don't have a fucking clue what you're talking about, mate.

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

Why haven't you been home? It's not like they're keeping you locked up here.

[christ-onabike.livejournal.com]

Cause I've got a fucking job to do here.

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

What, they don't give you people leave? Or are you just a workaholic?

[christ-onabike.livejournal.com]

I've got my fucking reasons for not going back. And I ain't sharing.

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

I suppose we'll have to wait for another alcoholic flood for that. Although, you seem to have kept yourself together remarkably well during the last one.

[thatlibbychick.livejournal.com]

Paddy, he's bullbaiting you. Cut him off--don't even address what he's saying. He's having fun with this.

[christ-onabike.livejournal.com]

Right. Yeah, got it.

[thatlibbychick.livejournal.com]

Stop baiting him.

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

We were just talking. There's no need to spread your paranoia into other people's conversations.

[thatlibbychick.livejournal.com]

Keep thinking that.

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

Your new tactic does not amuse me.
