okay so like

i got here after we'd after we got to the starlight, so i don't know exactly how long we were there, but i wanted to know how long we usually stay at planets or stations or whatever

like on a scale of one to ten how likely is it that we'll still be here in two or three weeks

[she doesn't like having to wear the mask whenever she leaves her ship, but there's another reason she's asking, too.]

also i keep hearing about people who have been pulled into places like this before and i wanted to hear more about those if anyone feels like talking about their previous shitholes

Sounds like we got here there same time, so I can't help you there. I was in a place called MarinaNova Asylum between home and here. It called itself a prison.

a prison? man that's just low

adding insult to injury

what did they say you were imprisoned for?

Honest though. This is kind of like a traveling prison.

So many things. Tiny, insignificant stuff like jaywalking or speeding. And bigger things without without context. Alongside people who would probably break into tears if they had to hurt a fly.

fair enough

figures. did you ever figure out what they really wanted you for?

Not for sure, but I think we were being studied and they were putting us through our paces to test different stimuli. No idea why though.

I could do without it. Being sent to a reality show just feels like mocking at this point. Extra creepy to see my bank account increasing because I'm doing well at a game I have no intention of playing.
