Noble. [She repeats, looking amused as she goes up to the board to pull the darts out.] I don't know. I think that's for people with lances and horses and suits of armor. [She hands the darts to Sara.] I'm more of a survivor. [Survivors don't always take care of others in the process, Kitty.]

I did prison before this. Multidimensional prison under a dome, under the sea in something like a small, weird city. Prison with a beach and an arcade.

Hey, I said noble, not chivalrous.

[lances and horses and suits of armor, coats of arms, whatever. more her mother's wheelhouse than hers, but her mother's interests tend towards more ancient history. sara accepts the darts back with a nod.]

Doesn't sound like any prison I've ever heard of. [then again.] I never heard of Interstellar Big Brother before coming here either.

[passingthrough]

Fair enough. [She gives a smile.] I've been wondering if they're related. All of them. [Since she's heard stories of lots of these places.]

Different themes, maybe the same objective.

[revivo]

[she lets the darts roll over in her hand as she listens to that.]

What was the objective of that prison?

[passingthrough]

They said it was rehabilitation and preventing us from further damaging our timelines. Felt more like experimentation. Maybe entertainment. Every few days they'd do something to us or to the environment.

[revivo]

Maybe they were just bored. I'd believe it, at this point.

[considering the atroma's supposed obsession with ratings and reality tv and all.]

[passingthrough]

It is flattering to think I'm the cure for someone with too much power and time's boredom. Just what everyone wants to be when they grow up, right?

[revivo]

You and the rest of us.

[entertainment. experimentation. taking people en masse and detaining them. but why? it's harder to hold people than it is to kill them. there has to be a reason for it.]

What did you mean, damaging your timelines?

[passingthrough]

With our icky, icky crime-filled ways? At least I think that's all it meant. I'm pretty sure they said it to everyone so they probably didn't mean the time I tried to help reset our timeline specifically.
