i'm not asking because i do. i'm only curious. [ the idle wonderings of a newcomer prisoner. ]

[yoursecret]

The moment I turn my back...

[yoursecret]

ymir
ymir you're here too

[somefaults]

yeah. The police didn't take me sassing them so much well

[yoursecret]

what did you do
this time

[somefaults]

shoplifting

[yoursecret]

i should have been there to help look out for you

[shallnotharm]

Perhaps a few might, once they've settled in so to speak.

[yoursecret]

what's your opinion?

[shallnotharm]

Well, personally, I'd prefer the outside but I can see how someone might be able to. The outside world is definitely less structured than the inside, for example.

[yoursecret]

i think so too. it would take a desperate person to prefer this place but we probably have a few such people here.

[shallnotharm]

It's not a pleasant thought but I'm sure it's true.

[yoursecret]

how long have you been here?

That depends quite largely on what waits for you on the outside. If it's something you're avoiding or worse yet nothing at all... I suppose this life would be superior.

[yoursecret]

yes
it could be a matter of being trapped in here or trapped in a slightly different way outside.

[vaframenti]

It sounds to me that you may be personally familiar with the concept.

[yoursecret]

possibly, but i admit i'm still a newcomer here.

[vaframenti]

I had assumed as much.

Might I ask your name? Loki is mine.

[yoursecret]

i'm christa. it's nice to meet you loki.

[whiteas]

Of course not! Anyone who did would have to be certifiably insane.

[yoursecret]

maybe a few prisoners here actually are.

[whiteas]

They kill people here. Then bring them back for fun. Maybe I should correct myself in saying that even someone who's certifiably insane probably wouldn't enjoy that either.

[yoursecret]

i suppose i was wondering if anyone at all would even prefer that to an alternative waiting for them outside. i know it would be unlikely.

[whiteas]

They'd have to be a complete dunce.
