[Sounding slightly amused, but still stern.] Dear patrons. I'm disappointed to say that a certain item has gone missing from one of our passengers. If you've seen a stray notebook containing yellow legal paper, I firmly suggest that you return it to the library. No questions asked, of course.

[And on to pleasant voice.] And for the rest of you, please enjoy your day.

[People-With-Gloves Filter. If you've been wearing gloves lately, you're included.]

It appears that someone has removed this notebook from my room. It's a manuscript for a novel I'm writing and I'd be very upset to lose it. It would mean a lot to me if it was returned before our next staff meeting.

[OOC: What's going on here: Barron's assumed that he's on some kind of hippy cruise, filled with the bizarre kind of people who don't wear gloves. Which in his universe is the equivalent of being half naked. So he's assumed that he's working here while trying to scam someone out of something and has forgotten a huge chunk of information after using his power. He also thinks that everyone he's seen wearing gloves is a normal person catering to the rest of you strange nudists (so cruise staff members). Finally, Barron thinks that he's lost the notebook where he wrote how he got here and is on a mission to find it. And sorry for the info dump, guys. :c]

You're making this up.

Mord-Sith are Lord Rahl's bodyguards. We're well versed in pain and pleasure.

I don't know, everyone maybe?

No, I've been here a while. And yeah, I heard about the prison ship thing. All just part of this no gloves roleplay thing, isn't it?

Maybe. Can you blame me? You're a pretty interesting person. I just want to get to know you better.

Right. Is Lord Rahl on the cruise too?

Do you come from somewhere especially cold?

Are you sure? Because I have been here for a while, and I don't think we've ever met.

[Pause]

Wait, no gloves... roleplay? What are you talking about?

Get to know me for what purpose?

He died but did not end up here like the rest of us.

To see more of you, of course.

Yeah, I'm not sure what you mean by that.

[Have a long moment of boggling, Prefect.]

You've been worked, I think. You should talk to a doctor.

I don't think so.

The inmates who arrive here have all died back in their world.

You can't blame a guy for trying.

Yeah, that doesn't seem likely.

Worked?

[WAIT. GLOVES. WORKED. PUT THE PIECES TOGETHER, PREFECT!]

Oh! Comrade! Uh, is your name by any chance...

[Shuffle, shuffle, rustling of paper:]

...Barron Sharpe?

Many have tried. Few have succeeded, unless I sought out their company first.

Unlikely, but true. You're dead as well if you're an inmate.

[PREFECT: BEST WARDEN EVER.]

Yeah, that's me. And you are...?

From: [identity profile] buywithme.livejournal.com
I'm Prefect. Welcome to the Barge, Comrade! You are here because you recently died, and you committed...

[Rustle rustle, la la la, this is a pretty good file I'm enjoying here.]

Many crimes, of a wide variety back on your own world! Here, together, you and I will work towards redeeming you of your past actions, addressing the reasons why you felt compelled to be evil, and looking at how you could live your life without being evil in the future!

[WHAT IS THIS. So confused.]

Is this supposed to be some kind of joke? Did Philip put you up to this? Or Zacharov?

Date: 2011-02-16 08:08 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] buywithme.livejournal.com
No, Comrade, it's not a joke. You are an inmate here, and I have been assigned as your warden, which means I possess a file containing many details about your life, and am responsible for your well being and moral rehabilitation!

Neither Philip nor Zacharov are here, Brother, nor have I ever met either of them.

From: [identity profile] sharpememory.livejournal.com
Look, seriously. This is starting to lose its charm. I really am not interested in playing whatever game you people are running.

And can I have this 'file' back? Taking my stuff is not a good thing to do. [He thinks that this file is his journal.]

From: [identity profile] sharpememory.livejournal.com
Yeah, that doesn't really surprise me. Some people find the whole torturing business off putting as well.

I don't know. I feel pretty alive right now.

From: [identity profile] buywithme.livejournal.com
Comrade, it really isn't a game, you aren't experiencing symptoms of memory loss at present. You are dead. You have been extinguished by Zacharov, and now you are on the Barge.

If this were a game, it would be one based around the single least attractive scenario someone could possibly concoct, and no one would willingly participate in it.

[Pause.]

However, if you wish to see your file and verify that it doesn't fit the description of your notebook, then I can accommodate you?

Date: 2011-02-16 08:22 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] sharpememory.livejournal.com
That's ridiculous. I've never had memory loss before in my life and Zacharov and I happen to be on great terms. I saved his daughter, you know.

[Have a pause.] Yeah, we should do that. I want to see this 'file'. [He's starting to think you're working for the government, Prefect.]

Date: 2011-02-16 08:27 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] buywithme.livejournal.com
You got your brother to turn his daughter into a cat! The fact that she was eventually turned back regardless of your efforts probably didn't endear him to you, Comrade!

All right, Comrade, would you like me to come to your cabin? Or you could come to mine? Or we could meet somewhere neutral, like... the pub?

Date: 2011-02-16 08:32 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] sharpememory.livejournal.com
That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. Everyone knows that there aren't any transformation workers in America. [OH GOD, WHAT DID CASSEL TELL HIM. D:]

We should meet in the bar. I've got a feeling that I'm going to need a drink. Or three.

Date: 2011-02-16 08:42 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] buywithme.livejournal.com
All right, Comrade. If you meet me on deck, I can let you through to the bar?

I'll see you in a few minute.

Date: 2011-02-16 09:16 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] sharpememory.livejournal.com
Sure. I'll see you there.

SPAM!

[And sure enough, within a few minutes Prefect is hovering around on deck, waiting for Barron to show up. Strangely he actually feels more confident with this inmate than he did with Sonmi. At least with Barron, if he is terrible at his job:

a) There's no need to feel guilty, since his inmate is clearly a terrible person.

And

b) Barron probably won't even remember!

From Prefect's perspective, this is a win/win scenario!]

[And hey, here's Barron rocking up about ten minutes late. Mainly because the barge is lacking in maps. Not to mention that he wouldn't have picked a bar being up on the top of a barge. And the whole 'space sky' thing is creeping him out.]

[And hey, there's only one random guy hanging around on the deck. Time to approach him!] Hey, you're the Prefect, right?
