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.]

	And that's supposed to discourage me from being suspicious in the future? [He's irritated, but he makes a concentrated effort to reign in his annoyance and understand where she's coming from.] Fear and resentment... okay. I understand why you'd react poorly to suspicion when you tell someone what you are. Believe me, I get that. I'm sorry. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[She takes a deeper, cleansing breath. He's pretty good at pulling back after a slip and she can be too. That was childish of her. She nods.] And no more surprise penetration. [The sorry is on the tip of her tongue but doesn't quite make it to the land of hearing.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Surprise penetration... you do have a way with words. [And, apologetically:] Look, between the cylons and the humans who still hate me for what they think I did, I've had to be suspicious. I know you don't deserve that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[She really does. She has great words. The best words. She also appreciates how much he's trying here. She was nowhere close to this understanding, accepting, or trusting when she arrived so she shouldn't be hard on him. Being hard on people is just kind of an old default that likes to kick in sometimes.] You know what's going to smooth all of this over really well?

	[It's a good thing the trying is showing because not being suspicious and defensive is deceptively difficult.] I want the answer to be ice cream. Is it ice cream? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Of course it's ice cream. [And look! A wild Chill has appeared. And that is where we leave our heroes because they have more stories to tell in...THE FUTURE! (Which is already occurring.] (Reply to this) (Parent)
