Everything go all right for you?
[ private to Ashton ]
How'd it go for the rest of the flood?
[ private to Thrawn ]
Thank you for trusting me. And if you want to call me 'Ondo', you're welcome to.
[ private to Vincent ]
I think everything went all right? Did everything go all right for you?
[private to Eleven]
Were you still interested in that thing I mentioned?
[ closed to Arthur, Sokie, Sheehan, Aerith, and Oscar, individually ]
Are you back to... you?
...do you remember while you were... smaller?
[ new inmates only]
One of the new folks gave me the idea for this so hopefully this will help: [ and linked is this write up with information, including- ] and like it says, please make sure to ask if you have any questions on any of that.
[ closed spam - cabin - with Ger ]
[ After he finishes up with Chris, he's coming back to his cabin to see if Ger's there and check to see how he's doing. He'll knock on his own door and open the little window. ]
Are you in there, friend?

[ John's going to be out and about especially this week, checking in on people and places on the Barge to make sure that everything is back to normal and everyone's back in the swing of things. He knows how wild things can get after a flood. ]

You...were my entire world. I hope you know that. In the best way.

You're a bit of a brat, Mr Doe.
[Not with regret. He sounds like he's amused, if flustered.]

Well. Frustrating. Maybe not enough to get angry about. Or raging mad, rather.
He rubs his face, gets up to pour himself a glass first thing, and shuts himself in his room in the upstairs of Norton's cabin. He has to have this conversation quickly before the restriction sets in and he can't use his communicator any more.]

I don't feel any different.

In fact, it seems like most people are doing all right after all that disruption. Everything go okay on your end?

It's weird to be a child.
No matter how many times the Admiral makes me one.
It's disorienting if I think about it after.

A few days post-flood
John, my king of wayward poets, I have an offering for you.

Do you want me to come to you?

Thank you for... trying, John. She'd never have admitted it, but she was terrified, and I think you were... too different from anything she'd ever known to get through to her easily.

But there wasn't much I could do about it, unfortunately. [ A little wry. ] I mostly wanted to distract her from jumping other people.
