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. ))

Under normal circumstances, yes, but I am presently unable to access the information contained within my cortical array. My knowledge and experiences are my own, not the Collective's.

[ clearly, this perturbs her. she doesn't enjoy not being able to flip through endless amounts of information -- it's really all she's ever known. ]

I will assist you. My captain would encourage me to do so. [ she rises from her seat, intent on doing just that. (and whether she means janeway or picard at this point is really up in the air.) ]

Part of the "power drain" I've heard?

[ she's filing it under the heading for "super-ability" rather than whatever it might actually be. and helen would understand feeling lost without something one has known for most of their life. it makes her wonder if this "power drain" affects her longevity or not.

nodding, helen gathers the plate and rises as well. ] Then your captain has good taste. [ and she approves, despite not knowing that seven knows picard. ] Shall we?

[ even if they don't find anyone in any short amount of time, they'll at least have a decent walk before their other activities are demanded. ]

Yes. I am malfunctioning.

[ and handling it fairly well, all things considering. if not for the stability picard and data provide her with, seven might've been spiraling towards a meltdown. ]

They do. [ janeway and picard this time, for she has a great deal of respect for both captains. though truth be told, she's more likely to go head to head with janeway over an issue she disagrees with than picard. this may or may not have something to do with the experiences of his retained by the collective and understanding, to a degree, how the enterprise's captain things. that, and he was borg. like her. that is something janeway can never truly understand. (especially not with the way she would go on to experience it.)

she nods and follows, hands clasped behind her back, posture perfect despite the ache in her shoulders. ]

[ that seven chose to use the world "malfunctioning" tells helen a great deal, possibly more than the woman wants to offer. it suggests that there's a lot more machinery involved than helen had originally thought. how interesting. ]

Then I hope this won't last long.

[ the "they" is also telling. one captain, two, perhaps multiples. either way, this woman thinks highly of them and helen will be interested in meeting them, if they're in the prison system. ]

In all of our time talking, I don't believe we've exchanged introductions. My name is Dr. Helen Magnus.

	Seven of Nine. [ she refrains from handing out her full designation. it is no longer customary and hasn't been since captain janeway liberated her from the collective. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's a pleasure to meet you, Seven of Nine, despite the circumstances. [ if she's weirded out by the title, she doesn't show it. she's known stranger, after all. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Likewise, Doctor Magnus. (Reply to this) (Parent)
