Where are you?

[ Open ]

Who wants to start some hardcore prison barter system? Give me your candy bar for my piece of cabbage or I'll shank you with my toothbrush, etc.

Actually, are we even still calling it "prison"? This place has a more backwater feel to it than MarinaNova, so I feel some slang is in order. "The slammer", maybe? "The clink" implies metal cell bars, so I don't think that's appropriate. "The big house". I don't know, I'm still relatively new to this life of crime shit. Thoughts?

	This place is more minimalistic than what we've grown accustomed to. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Is this for life??? Must we deal with these hardships from here on out? I protest! Dirk, we must find a way out immediately! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	So you should have no trouble getting your butt down there. Hurry it up. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Aye-aye! [And as commanded, Jake gets his butt down there.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Dirk is waiting there. He's at his least cool that Jake has ever seen him -- scrubs over his one-piece pajamas, no shades, uncool frizzy kinky hair. He looks hells of annoyed. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Jake's lips quirk into a smile. It's not often he gets to see Dirk so...disheveled.] Lookin' bright there, sunshine. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ He ruffles his own hair in irritation, then steps over to Jake. Without a word, he rolls up the left sleeve of Jake's jumpsuit to get a look at his shoulder. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	...I knew it. Look, Jake. It's gone. [ His tattoo, that is. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Huh? [Jake looks down. Wha--!!] Jeepers, Dirk! I thought you said that shit was permanent!! [He went through all those owies for nothing???] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	smuppeteer 2013-05-31 08:43 am UTC (link)
	It was. Or, it should have been. [ He folds his arms and frowns. The problem is, what does it mean... ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	skulltop 2013-05-31 09:17 pm UTC (link)
	Will I have to get it again? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	smuppeteer 2013-05-31 09:19 pm UTC (link)
	I don't know. But instead of reapplying it here, we should wait until we get sent back and see if you have it then. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Jake sadly bumps shoulders with Dirk.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	... [ Awwww. He bumps back and grabs Jake's hand. ] C'mon, I'll show you where we're staying. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	skulltop 2013-05-31 09:37 pm UTC (link)
	Lead the way, Strider! I'm right beside you! [He swings an arm around Dirk's shoulders.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	smuppeteer 2013-05-31 09:39 pm UTC (link)
	[ He wraps his arm around Jake's waist and leans against him, and leads the way. ] You'll want to keep it down when we get there. Roxy's hungover. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She should still be nursing a cup of tea. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	How does the ol' gal survive what she puts herself through, honestly. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I've been wondering that for years. [ He sounds a little wistful. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
