DAY 231 | VIDEO | OPEN
[The face looks human. If not for the fact it is only a face. Beyond that is wires and clear casing in the shape of a hairless human head. It even has eyebrows, but they do not move. The voice that comes with it is light and cheery, but not noticeably manufactured.]

Curious. Yes. Oh yes. Very, very curious. It is fascinating how people come together, is it not? Whether through internal choice or external force, sentient beings drawn together (linked, dare I say) are fascinating to observe. They always manage to surprise one when it is least expected, but only when their limits are pushed. It's never their first choice, oh no. One must force them to acknowledge each other and their common fates. But when it happens, oh the meeting of the minds is an invigorating experience.

[The head turns and looks down before lifting up a hand that is similarly clear with silver joints and colored wires throughout.]

But how do you all handle such physicality? Having a body is so superfluous when you can use your minds to speak to one another. This prison appears to be woefully outdated. What a pity. I am sure your wardens would have less complications if they could do away with it altogether. How are inmates to connect to one another when they are separated by these boundaries?

Oh, what poor manners I am showing. I am Sync, co-warden of Nexus Asylum. I haven't traveled to one of the other prisons before so this is a unique experience for me. I will have to collect a sufficient amount of data to take back with me.

(OOC: Say hello to the warden of a different Asylum prison! Sync is intrigued by having a body and everyone else having one, too. Please be aware this is a fourth wall character and not pertinent or related to any plot or clues related to plot in the game. Sync from an entirely different prison system in an alternate universe and just thinks that MarinaNova is part of its system.)

	Another asylum? How many are there? [Some of the Wardens had been less than forthcoming, but Tieria was hoping this one might be nicer. It seemed a bit more open and willing to chat. He might consider the option of talking about a physical existence versus a virtual one later.] (Reply to this) (Thread)

	More than one dozen, less than one million. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[That was... not as helpful as he had hoped.] Are you not allowed to say or do you not know? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ video ] ai_mindlinks 2013-08-07 04:46 pm UTC (link)
	If I did know, that would be a hefty a list. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: [ video ] trial_by_veda 2013-08-08 10:15 am UTC (link)
	So there are that many, then. [He considered that for a moment.] Though, I was merely looking for a number, not a list of names. Do transfers between these prisons happen often? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ video ] ai_mindlinks 2013-08-08 10:20 am UTC (link)
	It would depend on what you mean by often as that is a vague term without a set number of measurement. Transfers do happen. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: [ video ] trial_by_veda 2013-08-08 02:03 pm UTC (link)
	Can you give me an average number of transfers in a twelve month period, then? [He could easily get very specific.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ video ] ai_mindlinks 2013-08-08 02:11 pm UTC (link)
	More than one less than a hundred, depending on the prison. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: [ video ] trial_by_veda 2013-08-08 02:34 pm UTC (link)
	[He nodded. That made sense in a way. It was likely relative to the size of the prison.] Tell me about Nexus Asylum. [He was curious.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Nexus Asylum is crossroads of minds. Those minds influence the physical representation of the prison. All inmates are connected neurally to each other, thereby providing true understanding and comprehension of each other. One does not need to speak when one can see into the thoughts of those they are conversing with. Cognitive unity liberates and facilitates rehabilitation.

	Interesting. [He considered it for a moment.] Do those not used to a virtual existence such as that find it disorienting? [His first moments after reawakening inside Veda had been rather upsetting for a variety of reasons.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ video ] ai_mindlinks 2013-08-08 03:00 pm UTC (link)
	Undoubtedly. It is never simple to experience something vastly different in comparison to what one is accustomed. They all eventually adjust. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: [ video ] trial_by_veda 2013-08-08 03:12 pm UTC (link)
	If I were to ask about specific inmates, would you be able to and would you be allowed to tell me if they are in your prison? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ video ] ai_mindlinks 2013-08-08 03:53 pm UTC (link)
	Only inquiries about inmates can be made by inmates of Nexus Asylum. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: [ video ] trial_by_veda 2013-08-10 09:47 am UTC (link)
	I understand. [He had hoped, just a little, that he might find out where people had gone if they weren't in some sort of stasis like in the other prison.] Thank you. [So disappointed. Discussing Sync's topic sort of pushed to the back of his mind for the moment.] (Reply to this) (Parent)
