I have definitely noticed a growth in my moral development. example: there was a time when I might have been concerned about violent destruction and death but a little time on the barge has assured me that's just the proper path to happiness.

one time i killed a bunch of people and got stuck down in 0, and a bunch of wardens i didnt even like stood in front of my cell and talked to me about how disappointed they were in me

it really worked, hearing lectures from all those people whose opinions i didnt care about made me change my ways

that is a moving story of the sort of beautiful, life changing experiences you can have here. where else can experience the wonder of having lots of people come lecture you? it is truly rare.

now i realize that i haven't been getting the most out of my stay here, i've only heard lectures in generalities. if only someone cared enough to take the time out of their busy schedule in order to treat me like a child, i too could be saved.

yea im a model citizen right now, its a good thing nobody tried to listen to me or respect me or tell me i deserved to be able to make my own choices cuz that wouldnt have worked at all

its all about lecuring and awful floods and getting murdered and maimed a lot, thats what does it

see, now i can understand if a few people don't approve of your warden style. you start respecting people or their choices and you don't know what sort of madness that could lead to. thats the sort of thing that would make the barge a dangerous and uncomfortable place.

we have to stick to the stuff that works. no maiming than no morals, solid life lesson.

ive really heard people say stuff that sounded like that and they meant it

i've met similar people. i can understand it if they want punishment but it's hard to believe they could really believe that it would lead to anything positive

i know

they should just admit its about wanting to get them out of the way for a while instead of pretending its gonna do them any good for them

it can even be understandable. its different here but back home, for example, theres this serial killer who we locked up to stop him killing again. no one thinks its going to make him a better person.

wardens need to figure out what they think being an inmate means

locking up a serial killer at home isnt the same as taking one to a prison ship in space though

do you mean wardens as a group cuz i don't think wardens as a group are going to agree on anything together ever, and i dont think thats a bad thing

that's what i mean. people come in with ideas of how prisoners should be dealt with that don't really apply to this environment.

definitely not as a whole but if you think inmates need to be saved or have just made the wrong choices or whatever... maybe thats just what id like to know

i think everybody here has made some bad choices

and i think some inmates need to be saved and some dont, and its the same as wardens. lots of wardens make deals for themselves or their worlds, i dont know how anybody can say wardens dont need saving.

but i think if somebody does not want saving, then its wrong to try to force it on them. and i mean the people who really dont want saving, not the ones who are in awful situations that they think they deserve or dont have any choice about.

i think it all depends on what you think saving is. i think that theres a lot here that can help people. being removed from bad situations, meeting types of people that they might not have believed existed, being given a whole new way to see the world.

its just. ive made plenty of bad choices so i would take back and some i wouldnt but whether they were good or bad really doesnt matter, there were things i had to do.

ive heard a lot of wardens say stuff like that too so if anybody tells you thats why youre an inmate, theyre probably being a hypocrite

and i was helped a lot by people here but i dont think anybody saved me. it wasnt like that.

i wish you were a warden.

secret warden parties must be so boring.

seriously, i wont say that i like being here or enjoy being an inmate but im glad we can be friends despite the arbitrary lines people like to draw. just try not to overly concerned about how you treat me even though im stuck and you arent

ok

but thats not why i said i wish you were a warden, i wish you were a warden because you would be a better one than a lot of the ones weve got now.

it probably helps that im not working for a wish. thats the sort of thing that can make some pushy

i think theres a lot of people who wouldnt be here if they werent getting anything out of it.

thats most things in life. i suppose thats why im not standing in the corner with the people who resent wardens on principle

if you change your mind i hope you still talk to me

i would but i doubt it would come to that. im not good at holding on to resentment. im easily tired.

youre not easily broken right

[There's a slight pause before he replies.]

not by what the barge has to offer

good

youre kind of keeping me sane here

thats what friends are for.

do you want to hear a story?
