The Jail Cell Meme

You are now trapped in a jail cell. You may or may not know why or how you got inside of it; having been teleported into one due to the fickle whims of a resident deity is just as acceptable as getting arrested. (Maybe because of this?) You also might be innocent. If you're innocent and confused then it really sucks to be you.

You have company. Their circumstances might be the same or different from your own. But you're stuck together for a while.

What do you guys do?

[antiseptic]

I'm afraid I'm not at liberty to discuss that.

[He raises an eyebrow back at Richter.]

Should I take your silence as an admission of guilt?

[showmeyourwreath]

Jade, I need to be frank with you. I've read some of the book. Is it something that will act on its own, or is it something that the reader needs to do?

_{[The books from her school's library are really deadly, sometimes! SHE HAS TO ASK.]}

[pact]

Only a fool would assume that. Are you a fool, Curtiss? [ Did Flora speak? w/e ]

[antiseptic]

[Hmm.]

It's something you have to do, or I'd hardly be standing here. [You know, considering he wrote it and all.] By the way, how much of it did you understand?

[Two can play at that game. Did Richter speak? It's a mystery.]

[showmeyourwreath]

_{[Cursory glance at Ricther. What's your deal, bro.]}

I see. I'm sorry, we just have, uh, very...different books where I come from, sometimes.

As for the content, it was quite intriguing. Fonons sound very similar to Winx and magic in a lot of ways, actually, so the material was easy enough to follow and draw parallels from.

_{[Kind of forgetting that it's forbidden material and entering nerd mode.]}

[pact]

[ He counters Flora's glance with a cold stare. He's above talking to you, okay.

Back to eyeing Jade. ] Silence in response? Are you trying to tempt me into repeating your mistake?

[antiseptic]

[That's no way to treat your partner in crime.]

[Oh good, she hadn't gotten to the dangerous part yet.]

I'll have someone take you to a place where you can obtain books on fonons. In a legal manner, unless you're actually determined to break the law.

[He looks back at Richter again, directly this time. Is Richter simply fond of being uncooperative even in a situation where it would benefit him to speak frankly? He had expected the other man to have more sense than that.] My apologies, but I'm afraid your rambling is making even less sense than usual.

[pact]

[ Richter flips his hair. ] Nonsense, is it? Hmph. I suppose it would be to you.

In any case, I don't have time for these games.

[ He really has no idea why he's here. ]

[antiseptic]

[And Jade adjusts his glasses.] Oh, you have plenty of time. I know it's terribly difficult to accept, but you are a prisoner.

[pact]

A witness can't be detained. There's no reason for me to be here.

[antiseptic]

Are you so reluctant to face the truth, Richter? You're not a witness; you're a suspect.

[pact]

Suspect in what crime? The error was the girl's, not mine.

[showmeyourwreath]

Pardon me, I have a name, you know! I'll thank you to use it. I'm not invisible.

_{[Even if her mun didn't tag for a couple of rounds. w/e]}

[antiseptic]

Oh? So you two don't know each other?

[pact]

You doubted that?

[antiseptic]

[Obviously.]

Well, the two of you were arrested as co-conspirators.

[Shrug.]

[showmeyourwreath]

<sub>[She might feel a little bad for Richter.

Wait.]</sub>

Is he really such a suspicious person, Jade? I mean, I had the book, but...

_{[Unsure, Richter. Well, being rude doesn't mean he needs to be a criminal automatically!!]}

[pact]

Hn. It doesn't matter. I don't intend to endure this farce any longer.

If that's all you have, I'll be leaving. [ Richter fuckin' leaves. ]

[antiseptic]

[Except he can't because he's inside a cell.]

I see you continue to have no talent at all in looking innocent.

[showmeyourwreath]

_{[Yeah, Richter. You should take lessons from Flora To Richter,]}

Wouldn't it be more productive to explain yourself and maybe convince him that you really had nothing to do with this instead of being argumentative? I don't know the deal with you two, and I can understand being upset, honestly, but he's just doing his job, and things could go a lot faster if you were more cooperative.

_{[She cares, who only knows why, Jade already said she's off the hook!!]}
