[Crane’s holding the device up, and you can see from the wall behind him that he’s in zero.]

I don’t see why you’re all taking this so personally. It isn’t that different from one of your little floods, is it? And it’s not like the lot of you didn’t have it coming.

[Crane shrugs, as if to say ‘my bad’.]

Have fun with the cleanup. I’m sure there will be lots of exciting things to find around the barge.

[Crane gives the camera a bit of a grin, then moves the device away to turn it off. You can still see for a second that he doesn't look as cheerful as his tone would indicate.]

[Whoops, Crane’s in zero (brought down by Sam Tyler) and still a little bit high from the fear gas. He’s decided that he doesn’t really care if other people know he caused it because he reckons the information will get around anyway. He also doesn’t know that Ms Rose is alive yet either. I’m also open for a spam with any wardens coming down to visit him or other cool cats in zero. And this post is dated to around Sunday evening.]

He spends a great deal of his time dressed as a clown. He's somewhat hard to miss.

I'm really good at selective listening. I mean, I think I saw an entry of his once, maybe? But I don't really know him at all and I don't think we've ever talked.

Consider yourself lucky. He's a dangerous man.

So did he help you make the gas or did you do that all on your own? What little I remember of him, he didn't seem like the patient, planning type.

He wasn't involved in the process. I did it alone, if you were interested on pinning the blame on more then one person.

Look, I get that you're not just going to trust me. That's stupid, I know. Then tell me where to start. I'm serious about learning. I was a kid.. I didn't have time to learn things like this back home and it's hard to learn here without a mentor. I was just hoping to find someone worthwhile.

I mean, I worked with TwoFace for awhile, but.. he didn't do anything like this.

One would think that, being a prison barge, you would be more focused on an attempt to 'redeem.' So you have any particular motivation for doing otherwise, apart from sadism?

I met Harvey Dent briefly before his disappearence. He was a warden then.

Revenge. Also? There's no really no reason for redemption. This place is better than home ever was in some ways, and being a warden sounds like a pain in the ass.

TwoFace wasn't. I met him when he was still both personalities, when he was an inmate for months. Maybe years.

Revenge? How compelling.

I wasn't aware of Dent's particular diagnosis. It does make sense, however, a particularly traumatic event resulting in a bout of dissociative personality disorder. Although, if someone like that can get out, perhaps anyone can.

Sometimes. If it's the right kind.

Consider it a feelgood story for your redemption.

The motivations behind it are always interesting. Do they want to strike fear into another or are they striking out because of the fear within themselves?

That story is clearly a heartwarming example of how the wardens and Admiral have no idea what they're doing.

Private / Written - She has a hard time not getting angry about his Harvey bashing.

[everylittlegirl]

Neither. It's not about striking fear into anyone.

Private / Written - Yeeeah. Crane's kind of on the anti Harvey side of things. :C

[doctor-j-crane.livejournal.com]

Then what is it about?

Maybe some other time.
