[Cain has no interest in vlogging, but his video feed was switched on accidentally as he got settled into his room. So for a long while there's no sound, and the only picture is of the side of his leg. Then he notices that it's not cooperating, and he's not such a stoic prisoner that he'll just turn it off and pretend it hadn't happened.]

This is some kind of reality show, huh? 'True Lives of the Deadliest Inmates'?

[He's quiet a moment, amused by the irony of hearing Slade, of all people, say that.]

So what's your business here, then? Teaching the kids to play nice?

[Private]

[ His conclusion is very logical, thank you every much.

The point of killing people is so they stay dead. It's a waste of time and energy to murder someone who won't stay dead. ]

I don't play nice with kids.

They stay on their side of the fence, and I stay on mine.

[ Except when they try to encroach on his space. Then, he gets pissed. ]

[Private]

[anewlanguage]

Not much of a fence here, Slade. What's this I hear about us getting our own Wardens?

[Private]

[terminates]

Assignments are on the 15th and 30th of every month.

They make deals with the Admiral, and if they 'redeem' one of us, they get whatever it is they made a deal for.

Some of them are easy to deal with. Others aren't.

There are areas on this ship restricted to Wardens only; entering those areas requires a Warden item to get them open.

What the item is depends on the Warden.

[Private]

[anewlanguage]

And you haven't liberated your Warden's item by now?

[Private]

[terminates]

I'm on my fourth.

[Private]

[anewlanguage]

[He's almost, almost curious.]

Found any really good uses for 'em so far?

[Private]

[terminates]

If you're lucky, they're not incompetent.

[Private]

[anewlanguage]

No good there, I can just be competent all by myself.
