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. ))

	If you've all been here long enough, I can imagine it would be. Better to have that sense of community and friendship than to be completely alone. [ whether or not she believes this is up in the air, but it's nice to hear anyway. ] I've seen this sort of thing happen several times. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	When you say sort of thing you mean people bonding in adverse conditions or something actually like this with abductions and distant prisons? [Hey, anything is possible.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The former. [ if she were to be honest, the latter would be a thing of her not-so-distant future and she knows it, but that's a can of worms she'd rather keep closed. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He nods along with his calisthenics.] Common goals. Common enemies. It's a good way to get people working together. It'd be helpful if the enemy was a little more overthrowable. [But he's been up against satan, so it's not like he doesn't know impossible odds well. Granted, the battle with Lucifer wasn't over yet. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	In my line of work, there's little reason to give up. I've always found there's a way to change things if you're willing to go through the hoops. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I agree. I've seen things that seem impossible even before I was here. I've just been here since the days were in double digits. [It wears down some of that hope after awhile.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That seems to be unique. I haven't met many who could claim that. But it does offer an interesting insider's perspective. Not many would have memories of such a long time, both good and bad. [ she spent nine months trapped inside a bubble of speeded up time. she understands what it's like to lose hope of escape and survival. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh, there are some people here who were around even longer. I guess that number's getting smaller though. [The strange part for Sam right now is that he feels like she gets it.] (Reply to this) (Parent)
