Item 1 - Video!

[Public]

[Video clicks on, and lo! It's a teenage boy with a shock of grey hair. He's walking as he talks, wandering the halls of the Barge apparently aimlessly.]

Uh, hey, I don't wanna cause a stink, but there's been some kind of terrible mistake here. My- uh, my parents, are going to be losing their minds back home in New Jersey...

[There might be something ever so slightly shifty about how he says this, but then again, he is a recently deceased teenage boy. He could easily just be nervous.]

All of this-- this inmate stuff? Yeah, you definitely got the wrong guy for that. I got a perfectly normal, crime free life, back home with my family. Yes, we cheat on our taxes and have the occasional three am family-document-shredding-party, but who doesn't? By nine am we're back to pancakes and oatmeal, and that, [decisive finger jab at the screen.] Is how you live the American dream, right?

[Private to Inmates]

So, does anyone ever actually escape from this place?

More convenient than death, for some.

You really buy that that's how we got here? That we're all dead?

inmate;

[heavenlymisandrist]

My original body has been dead for many centuries. Is it so difficult to conceive of your own mortality?

inmate;

[sneakykidwiththehair]

[He shrugs a little shrug.]

I don't figure this really counts as facing your own mortality, what with how we're all still walking around.

Yet you use this as evidence against your own death.
