Day 223 | video - open
[ the feed clicks on, showing a very consternated young woman. and then off. and then on! off! on! off! betty has no idea what she's doing, but there's a switch and she's flipping it back and forth angrily because she can't tell whether it's on or off and didn't pay as close attention to her welcome speech as she should have. ]

Stupid, bloody -- [ off. on. ] -- piece of -- [ off. on. ] -- even is this -- [ off. on, steadily now that she's taken the damn thing off and looked at what she was doing. that helps! but now she looks like she's about to cry and is trying very hard to be stiff upper lip about it. ]

What kind of prison gives you some comic book gadget, anyway? [ she takes some deep breaths now that the battle of the weird head thing is over. deep and calming, leading to an awkward pause as she realizes just what was on that list of crimes. now she's afraid and offended. ]

You know, that list of crimes is a bunch of bunk. If they think building bombs to stop Hitler is a crime then they're a bunch of Nazis!

[ probably (most assuredly) not the best first impression, but the feed clicks off again before she has a chance to fix it. ]

	Absolutely. At least I haven't seen a shortage of things to do here to keep one's mind occupied. But... if you do find yourself at a loss, you're welcome to visit me once I've gotten my project up and running. [ assuming she'll be able to really fix the place up. she's hoping anyway. it won't be perfect, but it'll be a start, something to do with her time. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Project? If there's any way I can help, you can count on me. [ it's not a light offer, either. there's not a wide range in her skillset, but whatever she's got that can be useful is there for the using. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm working on starting a clinic. It wouldn't be much, not what I'm used to, but even a little that can be taken to a fellow prisoner rather than a warden would be ideal. If you know anything about medicine or would like to learn, you're absolutely welcome to join me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I don't know much, just a little first-aid from back home, but I can roll bandages with the best of 'em. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well, if you'd like something to do, consider yourself hired. [ for various definitions of "hired," as there isn't any money that she's seen here. likely for the best, really. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ betty smiles, wide and genuine. ] Thank you, really. I won't let you down. (Reply to this) (Parent)
