Day 222 — Mandatory activity mingle
[ It's a wonderful, stormy day here in Squall Asylum and vacation time is officially over! Your gracious overlords have worked out a light itinerary for you today and they expect you to keep it.

Get in line to pick up your food rations for the day. Eat breakfast if you have time for it, or perhaps you'd rather skip this one time and save yourself the discomfort during the two hours of exercise that follow. Jogging, jumping jacks or perhaps impromptu team sports, whatever you end up doing you bet you'll come out exercised in the end!

Should you not want to participate... well. We have ways to make you join in. Anyone reluctant to get their heart rate up will get a helpful electric prod by one of the bots until they comply. Tough cookies.

Luckily you'll get a chance to wash off that sweat (hope you're not shy, the wash room can get crowded) before it's time for the silent game for an hour, followed by lunch. The day is not over yet though! There's still time for a couple of hours of hard labor tending to the crops, doing laundry or perhaps breaking bricks in the yard. To make sure none of the inmates are broken this is also the time for mandatory physical checkups — bots will guide you to the hospital. No ifs or buts. The violation of personal privacy is for your own good, we promise.

Isn't it nice, being in prison? ]

((ooc: This mingle takes place during all of day 222. A bullet-point for of the itinerary can be found here, where we also encourage you to direct any questions. Event info is here if you need it. ))

	So you agree that we could be dealing with a practical application of the many-worlds theory here? [ First time he 1) didn't have to bring it up and 2) didn't have to explain it. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Of course. How else can the cross of varying timelines, worlds, and dimensions make sense here? Without that, this place couldn't exist -- and if it did, even for a fraction of a second, it would implode on itself. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Wow, so excited! ] Exactly! That's what I've been thinking ever since I arrived — it seems even more plausible when you take into account that several versions of the same individual can exist here simultaneously without ill effect. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You, I like. [ he sits up, turns to face him. ] What's your name, son? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Reid. Spencer Reid — Doctor Reid, actually. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	genius 2013-06-20 09:34 pm UTC (link)
	Well, Doctor Reid, I'm Doctor Tesla. Nikola Tesla. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Whoa whoa whoa, hold the frickin' phone here. ] ...The Nikola Tesla? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Oh. Oh wow. And here he thought he'd figured out a way to deal with the Picards and Datas and R2D2's of this place and then they drop a real life scientific wonder into the mix. Needless to say, the surprise and admiration is more than obvious. ] I'm, uh... I'm a huge fan of your work. You really don't get the attention you deserve. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

That would make you one of the few who do.

[ of course, it didn't help that he'd been so infuriatingly humble about it back then. when marconi started ripping him off, he'd shrugged it off and said to let the man do as he pleased, because he was using several of his patents. what a fool he'd been back then. it didn't bother him before the war; it sure as hell did after. ]

Welcome to the minority.

Thank you... I guess.

[ He manages a stifled smile — restraining his fanboying has been the most important lesson prison could teach him. It's one thing to explode with delight when you meet someone briefly and a whole different thing to make a fool of yourself when these people could be your neighbor. ]

So how long have you been here? [ How long have I missed that you're here? ]

	As long as you have. [ snarky asshole. nikola knows what spencer means, he just has a bad habit of being difficult. he's not as docile as he was in his early years. ] A week. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2013-06-28 11:52 am UTC (link)
	[ It's okay, he deals with snarky assholes on a near-daily basis. This is nothing. Also a week isn't too bad. ] Seventy-five days for me. Are you settling in alright..? Before, uh... before the transfer, I mean. (Reply to this) (Parent)
