[ This is not the syndicate laboratory. The boy looks around himself in a panic before noticing the message playing on the headset he's been given. The welcome message makes sense, he guesses; the list of crimes, not so much. There are a couple that he can understand why, in theory, somebody might accuse him of them, but he has no idea where most of the rest of them came from.

He's never even driven a car before, let alone without a license. Or while asleep.

And he's never heard of any MarinaNova Asylum. Well, that's easily solved with a simple lookup. Standing right there in the middle of the sidewalk in Sector 2, paying no mind to the storm damage surrounding him, he closes his eyes and spreads his arms to his sides.

Nothing.

Absolutely nothing. He can't access the Gaia Library. This... is not good. ]

[ The boy on the video feed is visibly disheveled. His hair is a mop-like mess and there's a look of disorientation in his eyes that goes beyond the usual new arrival. ]

What is this place? I can't look anything up. I need to-- my research, I can't be here--

	This is MarinaNova. If you mean you can't research anything at the library, that is temporary. If you mean you can't connect to a source in your home for research, that is something normal to this place. It cuts off all communication with the outside world. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	This is unacceptable. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sendin_theclown 2014-10-15 02:24 am UTC (link)
	It is, I agree. However, we can not change it. The wardens do this. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	noosphere 2014-10-15 02:35 am UTC (link)
	Then it's the wardens I will need to speak with. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sendin_theclown 2014-10-15 02:42 am UTC (link)
	They usually are the ones that new arrivals need to speak to. Don't expect them to be very helpful though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	noosphere 2014-10-15 02:47 am UTC (link)
	Then I'll do that. [ ...he really hates to have to ask, but... ] Where do I find them? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sendin_theclown 2014-10-15 02:51 am UTC (link)
	Sector 0. You can speak to them with the kiosk in the center of the sector. They are artificial intelligence so they don't have a physical presence aside from that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ He doesn't want to ask for help again, so he hits random buttons on his communicator to see if he can find some information there. Ah-- a map. That's useful. He's... just going to rudely start on his way without actually thanking Trowa. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sendin_theclown 2014-10-16 12:49 am UTC (link)
	[Trowa doesn't really care about that. He's used to "to-the-point" conversations that don't require thanks.] [ooc: did we want to assume he hung up on Trowa? Or we can continue it.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ ooc: I left it ambiguous just to see which option you prefer. :D ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ooc: cool cool] [And since he hadn't disconnected the line yet] Any other questions about this place I might be able to explain? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	noosphere 2014-10-16 02:24 am UTC (link)
	Not unless you know a way out of here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sendin_theclown 2014-10-16 02:36 am UTC (link)
	That is a work in progress by multiple sources. The dome being completely surrounded by water does make that more difficult. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	noosphere 2014-10-16 02:49 am UTC (link)
	What sort of progress has been made? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sendin_theclown 2014-10-17 12:57 am UTC (link)
	We know the wardens can't... or perhaps the better word is shouldn't, be hacked; there are multiple locations so anything done would have to prevent transfer there as well; we can't teleport or anything like that. So far it is a process of elimination. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	noosphere 2014-10-17 02:43 am UTC (link)
	After nearly three hundred days, that's all? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sendin_theclown 2014-10-18 12:40 am UTC (link)
	At least that I am aware of. I have no special powers as such so I am limited. Those who have been here longer also have not been in this particular dome the entire time. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	noosphere 2014-10-18 01:39 am UTC (link)
	Where were they prior? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sendin_theclown 2014-10-18 01:51 am UTC (link)
	Another dome in a different location, also underwater. There were different wardens there. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	noosphere 2014-10-18 02:52 am UTC (link)
	How strange. What was the reason for the relocation? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sendin_theclown 2014-10-18 07:48 pm UTC (link)
	Some of the others on the Defense Force and some of the teachers have the theory that the previous warden, who sympathized with them, had discovered something important about those that had created the dome and before she could act on it, they were moved. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	noosphere 2014-10-20 05:00 am UTC (link)
	The previous warden was "sympathetic" to the prisoners...? Why was that? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sendin_theclown 2014-10-21 01:20 am UTC (link)
	Unfortunately I don't know the answer to that. Perhaps she was a more advanced artificial intelligence and was around humans. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ He'll need to investigate into this further. On his own, since nobody around here seems to have his level of competence. In his eyes, anyway. ] This could be very useful information. I will keep note of it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sendin_theclown 2014-10-22 12:00 am UTC (link)
	[And the feeling was likely mutual about level of competence. Trowa didn't trust many things with other except for his teammates] It is useful. Unfortunately, it is unlikely that warden is here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
