[thebestseller]

Who: Richard Castle and YOU
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: N/A
When: August 21st

Windrose crew, please don't worry too much, but I have been tossed in the pokey, so I won't be coming home tonight. Jeez, it's like the other factions don't have any sense of humor at all...

[Castle shifts uncomfortably.]

Really, no appreciation for fine artwork, these people. And they take this team business way, way, way too seriously.

Vision, please take care of the bots, and remember me fondly if I rot away in prison.

I miss her a lot. I haven't seen ANYONE from my world since I was brought here, in fact.

[revengeofthemordsith]

Isn't that a good thing? Certainly you wouldn't want your daughter to be kidnapped and brought to this place.

[thebestseller]

Oh, definitely. I wouldn't wish this place on ANYBODY, so I'll take that over my whole group being here.

[revengeofthemordsith]

But you're lonely. That is understandable.

[thebestseller]

... yeah. I try not to let it get to me much, but... I am. I know I don't belong here. None of us do.

[revengeofthemordsith]

Belonging anywhere, especially in a new place is difficult.

[ Cara belonged to the Mord'Sith until they betrayed her. Then she had nothing, but the need to protect Richard. Now she has more . . . but defining it, even calling it a place where she belongs is . . . hard. ]

[thebestseller]

Mmm. I was lucky to get with a good crew, at least- you know, the kind that comes to bail me out of prison.

[revengeofthemordsith]

Which is nice, but avoiding prison might be even better for your crew overall.

[thebestseller]

True. Next time, I'll know better than to let myself get so swept up in things.

[revengeofthemordsith]

Or let me know. It should be no chore to break you out.

[thebestseller]

My shipmates are already on it- but I'll keep that in mind.

[revengeofthemordsith]

See that you do.
