Day 363 - Open Video/Action
[Video]

[The video opens on a man sitting squarely in view, his bearing better suited to someone awaiting a big job interview than a newly incarcerated prisoner.]

Hello, MarinaNova Asylum. My name is Felix Gaeta. I'd say that it's a pleasure to join your ranks, but I don't want to start off on a lie.

I've been over the information I was provided with on arrival and it left a number of things unanswered. Namely... [a pause to pick up a notepad] ...is all of this really virtual, and, if so, does anyone know where our bodies are?

Do you have a leader or any kind of civilian government?

Is everything here actually free for the taking, or are there strings attached?

[He pauses again, flips a couple of pages, and sighs.]

Maybe this is a better question: do you have an archive or some other collection of information that hasn't been provided by the wardens? No one wants me to go through all of these, including me.

[And scene.]


[Action]

[Gaeta can be found at the library—taking notes, likely—or at any of the many eateries in Marina, admiring the sheer selection available. He won't go out of his way to be friendly.]

You don't think it could be true? There are a lot of ways to fight. Maybe no one's found the right way.

I wouldn't still be at it if I didn't think there was a chance. I just know it's rough when you think you'll be here hours or days and it turns into months.

[Thanks for reminding him that he could be here for months, Sam.]

What happens at home in the days or months where we're not there?

[Hey, it could be years for all he knows!]

The thing we've all heard? Another version of you is there to do what you'd do, but without breaking any laws.

[No.]

I don't suppose you've heard where that version comes from or what happens to us if it gets killed, have you?

I don't. I assume it came from a warden originally. If it is true mine's already died a few times.

Is getting killed something that happens a lot where you're from? [Equal parts concern and curiosity.]

It's normally just one time, but my life isn't normal one. [He's usually more reserved with that, but where is reserved getting him in prison life anyway?]

I'd say so. How's it possible to die more than once?

Here you just come back the next day now. Which is easy enough because of the virtual reality system. At home it's a little more complicated and rare. [Just not for the Winchesters.] You have to know the right people. Who aren't usually people exactly. [Not human at least.]

Complicated. [A raised eyebrow because coming back from the dead should be more than complicated and rare since Sam is from a universe without robots that resurrect themselves.] What are they, exactly? Not cylons.

Cylons? No, angels. Demons. Death. I should probably be bracing you more for that or trying to explain I'm not as crazy as I sound, but it gets old.

You do sound crazy, and I wish I had reasons to think that you aren't telling the truth.

If it helps any they aren't big factors here. But if you ever get the chance to pick a world to go to after this I wouldn't recommend mine.

So noted. The only simple, reliable thing that humanity has going for it where I'm from is dying; I wouldn't want to go to a world where even that gets complicated.

What's the situation back home?

Grim. [Oh, what. Did he want details?]

Okay, what's the biggest differences between there and here for you? [Because he doesn't need every gritty detail. Just an overview and that's pretty hard to do without some context. "What is your world like?" never goes over easily.]

None of the machines here are trying to kill us. That's the big one.

No, just taking our freedom away and occasionally toying with us. But I don't think they actually want us getting hurt from what I can tell.

From what you can tell? [Please be more certain that none of the machines want to hurt them.] You have doubts?

[info]tallerthanthou

Sometimes it seems like they don't care that much and sometimes they go out of their way to heal someone up. [So not that he thinks they want to hurt them. Just how much do they want to help?]

So they're more-or-less indifferent, but might have some motivation to keep us alive. [Even though he might look unimpressed, this isn't a terrible thing to hear.] Could be worse.

It could be a lot worse. It could be better too. But I guess you could say that of just about anything.
