068 - Sam hates this shit

[bythe_books]

[Gloriously Public]
Thanks to a tip from Captain Swing, we've just been alerted that some of the Inmates decided to take advantage of the Borg Queen's attack on us and steal items that are clearly not allowed to Inmates.

Effective immediately is a Barge-wide lockdown. Any Inmates who are not in their cabins are to return to them immediately, or they will be escorted to Level 0.

[Warden Filter]
I'm requesting an immediate lockdown, so that we can do a sweep and locate whatever crap the Inmates have decided to pilfer during the... 'invasion.' One of them already tried to take advantage of it, and I am not in the mood to have this come back and bite us in the arse afterwards.

[Private to Annie]
Sorry, Annie. Guess we'll have to postpone things. Just like home, isn't it?

[OOC: Also, I don't know if our newer players know this, so just to clarify! When a lockdown occurs, the ADMIRAL locks every Inmate cabin with them in it]

It's ok, Sam. And yeah, it is a bit.

Private

I promise, we'll finally get a few minutes together. I want to hear about you everything I missed.

Private

[wdc-cartwright.livejournal.com]

Just take care of this Inmate business and I'll see you soon.

We were fighting against an alien overtaking and they still found time to pilfer things? I'm not surprised, but honestly. You'd think we were watching children, not criminals.

That sounds like a great idea. Where do you need me?

WARDEN FILTER

[bythe_books]

You would think that their priorities would change for once, but no.

Anyway, here's what I think should happen. Clearly, the Wardens who were... assimilated aren't in any state to investigate their Inmates, so those of us who weren't are going to personally pat down every Inmate and check their rooms. I... can't trust the others to do a thorough job right now.

WARDEN FILTER

[agent-bly.livejournal.com]

You want me to make a list?

Wardens

[accountsettled.livejournal.com]

Oh God. Anything in particular we're looking for, or just in general?

I...admit I have no idea what my inmate did for the past week.

Wardens

[bythe_books]

Any contraband items.

Don't worry; I'm expecting the... victims of the Borg Queen to sit this one out. You've got enough to deal with right now.

Re: Wardens

I...shall ask my wife to check on him. I cannot abandon my responsibility entirely.

WARDEN FILTER

Who had time to steal anything? I thought most of our illustrious cargo were "assimilated". Did they steal the wires from up their noses?

WARDEN FILTER

[bythe_books]

Clearly, some Inmates did.

Private

[kingfor-aday.livejournal.com]

...meaning the man who thought he could find your handcuffs?

Want any help? My inmate was a borg for the entire thing, so I doubt she'll have taken anything.

Private

[bythe_books]

The man who obviously stole them and did a piss-poor job pretending he didn't.

Yeah, I'm gonna need every Warden who wasn't assimilated to help do a room-by-room search for any contraband.

[captain-jtkirk.livejournal.com]

Lose something special, Sammy?

Warden

[bythe_books]

Not something special, no. I've just had it up to here with the Inmates' bullshit. If you don't want to help, then go back to doing whatever it is you were doing, but don't get in my way.

Warden

[autistic-genius.livejournal.com]

Take advantage in what way?

Warden

[bythe_books]

To take things while we were distracted, for starters. I want to make sure that no Inmate got their hands on something they shouldn't have. Especially the weapons.

Private to Sam

[no-left-arm.livejournal.com]

What exactly did he say?

Private

[bythe_books]

Oh, your name came up, specifically. Anything you feel like telling me?

[i-hate-posses.livejournal.com]

The whiskey you'll find in my room's a gift from the Warden, before anyone tries to take it away. You can ask her about that.

[bythe_books]

Noted.

Private to Sam

[roseoftime.livejournal.com]

Umm...

Does any of this have to do with a trident?

Private to Rose

[bythe_books]

A.... trident?

Wait, hang on. What happened with a trident?

Private

[grayatonement]

Adam, Elle. We started a Company. I don't know if it was them, but..

I'm trying to be honest.

Private - I can't remember if Sam knew about the Company or not

[bythe_books]

While I appreciate the honesty, I... don't really understand what you're saying. What sort of company?
