91 - Jailhouse Blues [Voice]

Congratulations. You won. Here's to an eternity of the status quo.

[After a pause]

Billy... Please tell me you're alright.

[AND IN THE BACKGROUND YOU CAN HEAR RAYNE SHOUTING THE FOLLOWING]

JESUSFUCKINGCHRISTMONKEYBALLS! SOMEONE BETTER BE LETTING ME OUT OF HERE OR-

[OOC: Major McCrazyface is in Level 0 now with a bandaged, possibly broken hand, a STILL stitched up leg, and a frown :c I'm pretty sure Inmates can't initiate private filters, hence his having to ask about Billy in public. ANYWAY. Visit him if you'd like; just spam it in this post]

[Sigh.] Henry, you can't assume responsibility one minute and then get all indignant the minute talk of discipline comes up; it's childish. Now I'm telling you that I have no problem with the two of you continuing to be around each other, and I'm not saying for certain that Reid will, either, but you need to be prepared for that and bear in mind that whatever happens it very likely won't be permanent. All right?

[He scoffs] I have no problem with discipline when it's warranted, but it is not childish to have an aversion to torture. [And maybe that sounds melodramatic, but considering what West has gone through, losing each and every person who's mattered to him, having to hold a hand or two while they died, or put them down himself, the thought of losing Billy IS torture to him]

[So he doesn't say anything for a while]

Right.

I know how that would make you feel, Henry, and that's why I'm going to do everything I can to make sure that doesn't happen.

[He's quiet for a while]

Thank you. I appreciate that.

[She reaches for something to say, and realizes there's one thing she's never once said to him. It doesn't feel like much, but it's all she's got.]

Everything is going to be all right.

Perhaps...

[He runs a hand through his hair]

Everybody hates me right now-- with good reason.

And if you want that to change you're going to have to let them. Time and patience. And trust. You can't forget about trust.

I know...


I take full responsibility for what happened to Sam and Prefect.
gimmethemap: (all right fine)

[SPAM]

[personal profile] gimmethemap 2009-06-30 09:21 pm (UTC)(link)
That's good of you. [She frowns.] But I think they should be the ones to hear it.

[SPAM]

I was just telling you, so... Billy and the others don't get the blame for it. I did send Charlie after Sam, to get the gun, and... a part of me knew exactly what he was going to do.

[She bites her lip.] I appreciate you telling me. I hope you'll apologize to them when you think you're ready to.

[SPAM]

[identity profile] major-west.livejournal.com 2009-06-30 09:37 pm (UTC)(link)
What good would that bring?

[He sighs]

So what's going to happen to me?
gimmethemap: (arms folded)

[SPAM]

[personal profile] gimmethemap 2009-06-30 09:44 pm (UTC)(link)
It would show me and them that you're not just claiming to take responsibility. It'll also look better for you in the longrun.

[She shifts on her feet, using the cane to transfer some of her weight.]

For now, you're going to enjoy a week here in Level 0 while the Wardens try to come to some agreement and write it down like the Admiral wants us to. I'll come to see you, bring you your medicine as you need it; we'll talk.

[SPAM]

[identity profile] major-west.livejournal.com 2009-06-30 09:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Fair enough. [He seems to think for a moment] I don't feel as bad about all this as everybody probably thinks I should. I have few regrets.

[personal profile] gimmethemap 2009-06-30 09:52 pm (UTC)(link)
And what are those?

[SPAM]

[identity profile] major-west.livejournal.com 2009-06-30 09:53 pm (UTC)(link)
I didn't plan well enough, and I allowed some people I care for to get caught up in it. That's all.
gimmethemap: (all right fine)

[SPAM]

[personal profile] gimmethemap 2009-06-30 10:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[Her face falls.]

What do I need to do to stop you from planning altogether?

[SPAM]

[identity profile] major-west.livejournal.com 2009-06-30 10:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Show me that the Wardens deserve their station. If they behave like something to aspire to, we'd be more inclined to listen.

[He gets up and approaches the bars, looking at Morgan]

But I do want to say that... If I must have a Warden, I'm glad it's you.

[Her expression softens; she really hadn't been expecting to hear that from him.]

You mean that?

[SPAM]

[identity profile] major-west.livejournal.com 2009-07-01 04:22 am (UTC)(link)
I do, yes. [He smiles slightly] Frustrating as you may be at times. [After a pause] And frustrating as I may be.
gimmethemap: (laugh)

[personal profile] gimmethemap 2009-07-01 04:24 am (UTC)(link)
[Morgan laughs a little. Shortly. Then she subtly pushes under one of her eyes with a knuckle.] I wouldn't have it any other way, myself. And I can only do what you ask by speaking out and doing my best to serve as an example. I hope that'll be enough.

I can't expect anything from the others. I know that now.

[personal profile] gimmethemap 2009-07-01 04:35 am (UTC)(link)
You let me worry about the others.

[SPAM]

[identity profile] major-west.livejournal.com 2009-07-01 05:37 am (UTC)(link)
I don't expect they'll listen to any grievances for a good long while.
gimmethemap: (morgan)

[SPAM]

[personal profile] gimmethemap 2009-07-01 05:40 am (UTC)(link)
Which is why you bring them to me so that I can speak for you.
