[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. >___>

That seems more the Riddler's area of expertise.

We're going to develop a sense of humor all your own. No one's 'expertise' but yours. Life's too short to take every little thing seriously.

We're in a prison. Life has to be taken seriously here.

I agree but not ALL the time. You're human. There's room for error, and some genuine laughing too.

I think all things aside it's not a bad first task to ask of you, so what do ya say?

I don't think that's a reasonable 'first task' for me to do. How are you supposed to measure something like that?

[private/video]

[youdaman.livejournal.com]

I'll figure out a process.

Fantastic. [It's pretty clear that Crane is less than excited.]

[She smiles.] Great. [Too bad you're gonna learn to have some sort of fun. :CC or something.]

I'm looking forward too it. [Clearly indicting that he's not. Fun that doesn't involve science or experimenting on people? Madness! :D]
