[ ...her second inmate ever is a bit much, but... she's here to try. ]

Hello. My name is Ilde. I am your temporary warden at this time. Would you like to get together for a short chat? I could serve tea, if you like.

[At least this one won't be complaining right off the bat? He's doing his best to remain optimistic about redemption.]

Yes. I would be grateful.

Do cats bother you? Or plant allergies?

If not, I am on the 8th floor in cabin 17.

Re: video;

[symphonyofthenight]

No.

I shall make my way there then.

[And so he does.]

[ Her wind-battered door stands out, and she appears there to let him in quickly. The cat always knows there are visitors before she does. Entering her foyer comes with the smell of happy, damp plants. She leads him to the left, where she has a seating area and small kitchenette. ]

What kind of tea do you like? Caffeinated, herbal?

[symphonyofthenight]

[It's nice. Quaint. Reminded him of a hedge witch's cabin. He didn't seem to pay much attention to any of the details, but he noticed it all.

He sat with relaxed movement.]

...Black.

[The word "caffeinated" did not exist in his time and did not quite translate. He had no idea what she was saying in other words.]

[ Her electric kettle is one of her prized possessions, and there is water ready and tea steaming quickly. She sits down across from him. She's young, and though she's pleasant throughout, her manners are restrained. She emotes through her eyes more than through expressions. ]

I'm glad you were available to come. How is the ship finding you?

[atowncalledtreffy]

Oy.

Want to see my club?

[symphonyofthenight]

Your what?

[Please tell him you mean an actual weapon and not something else, Trevor. Why would you do this to him right after that immensely sexually frustrating confusing breach?]

[atowncalledtreffy]

This club I started. Midnight tonight, come with me.

[symphonyofthenight]

[Oh. Thank goodness that clears things up...a little.]

Very well. Where?

[atowncalledtreffy]

Enclosure. We'll walk over together.

[symphonyofthenight]

All right. My room is closest being on the top floor. I'll wait for you.

[atowncalledtreffy]

Won't keep you waiting, Fangs.

[artistinexile]

Good day. Am I speaking to Alucard?

[symphonyofthenight]

Yes.

[artistinexile]

Greetings. I am Mitth'raw'nuruodo. We have been temporarily assigned as warden and inmate.

You may call me Thrawn. Do you have a preferred name?

[symphonyofthenight]

Just Alucard.

[artistinexile]

Alucard. Well met.

I wish to know you better. We have not formally met.

Tell me: do you enjoy art?

[symphonyofthenight]

[a pause]

As much as the next person I suppose.

[artistinexile]

Excellent.

Would you be interested in attending a gallery show with me, so that we may get to know one another better?

[generosite]

Do you plan to attend the wedding?

[symphonyofthenight]

No.

[generosite]

It will be loud and overwhelming, but it is an opportunity to meet many of the other residents. Our connections to others are valuable when there is inevitably a crisis later. I will leave the final decision up to you, but please give it some consideration on my behalf.

[symphonyofthenight]

I will take that under consideration.
