Prison is exceedingly boring. Or at least this one is.

Most of the prisons I have had cause to be familiar with have all been much higher security and specialized in their intent. This one is just a barred room with men who leer at you in the hopes it unsettles you.

I'm disappointed that you went to jail and didn't think to invite me to get arrested with you

[resonantcomplications]

I wasn't aware you might be interested in splitting space and time and failing spectacularly at it despite all evidence saying it should have worked.

Next time I intend to be arrested, I will send you a formal invitation, though I hope that time may be a long way off yet.

[onevoice]

Splitting space and time - yes, for a good cause. Failure, never. Do better research and send an invitation next time.

[resonantcomplications]

Ordinarily, I might be mildly offended at that slight, but I was foolish and hopeful and working with others I did not know or even trust for the most part. I do not usually work so blindly.

Then again, I also do not usually work with so few resources. My ambitions and some pride got ahead of me, I will admit.

[onevoice]

Yes, and it's too late for me to ground you; the city already has.
We need to return to our plans when you've been released.

[resonantcomplications]

Is that what you do to those under your command?
I agree. I have remembered a few more styles of braid I think will look nice in your hair. Beyond taht, I am at your disposal. A distraction will be beneficial.

I just throw them in a very boring prison and stop feeding them.

[ She does not.]

Is the touching situation going to be worse now.

[resonantcomplications]

A clever tactic.

[Whether that's sarcastic or perfectly sincere is anyone's guess.]

Hardly. I appreciate your concern, however. I spent eighty years touching no one, a bit over a week will not unravel current progress.

[onevoice]

I'm going to take how thoroughly you missed what I was actually asking as a positive sign.

[resonantcomplications]

Perhaps I should ask instead for clarification?

[onevoice]

No.

[resonantcomplications]

And why not?

[onevoice]

Because I'm not answering it.

[resonantcomplications]

I see. I didn’t take you for one so contrary.
