[Bond has been laying low, for the most part: investigating quietly, observing, looking for the Admiral and the Bridge and all the other things people initially told him he'd never see or find.

It galls him that they were right.

He's also spent his time half convinced that this is all a drug induced dream meant to obtain information from him. He still isn't sure either way, honestly, so when the video clicks on, Bond's face is inscrutable, because you're getting nothing from him, Quantum. When he talks, it's easy, smooth, because he is a very good bluffer.]


Suppose this is real. Suppose we are actually on a ship meant to cure us of our villainous ways. Tell me how it works. Tell me how often it works. And what do the wardens get out of it?

[He smiles, and it's easy but doesn't reach his eyes.]

While we're here, I've learned from my mistakes, 'Admiral.' [The inflection is small, but present: he really means Quantum.] Kindly send me back to live the quiet retired life, if you please. [There are much more important things than his immortal soul, or whatever the fuck this is supposed to be about, at stake after all.]

[Private to Ivy]

It strikes me that I may or may not owe you an apology.

[Private to Lark]

Heard anything?

[Suit yourself.]

Sean Connery, followed by others. You'll find you're something of a cultural institution.

[She says it in the same way that someone might say casual racism is a cultural institution. YOU'RE POPULAR BUT THAT DOESN'T MAKE YOU OKAY.]

And then I don't notice comment titles because I just changed DW themes.

We don't exactly get the same things.

It sounds as though you've already had more luck learning about the ship than I did when I arrived, whether you believe it or not.

[It was sort of a frantic arrival though, admittedly.] Ronald Sandoval, FBI.

Why would they have chosen to recreate this particular environment? It's not as if it's particularly consistent, or gets them anything in return. It would be far more practical to reprogram me to carry out a specific task, rather than leading me to believe I'm currently imprisoned on an interdimensional prison barge.

From what I understand, upon graduation it's your choice in regards to when you want to be sent back. And where.

[How to put this delicately...]

And given the...circumstances which needed to occur for you to arrive here, then it's very fortunate for those people depending on you that you did.

[Ariadne is already preparing her little spiel, because yep. That's what she does.]

Sometimes reality does get kind of shaky around here. But it's not a dream, no matter how many times you get turned into an animal or a child, or how many times we end up docking in Wonderland or Middle-earth.

Actually, I'd kind of like to see Middle-earth. [Huh. Right. ANYWAY.]

All wardens have deals. All of us are here for something, contingent on graduating an inmate.

And the problem with announcing you're better is that no matter how good a liar you are, the Admiral always seems to be able to tell.

Someone introduced themselves with murder. I woke up again in the infirmary in extraordinary pain but sans injury- something I found unusual to say the least.

[Obviously you are awesome at the fuck-off-and-don't-ask-my-name names, sir, or your parents liked Ian Flemming a lot.

He can dig it though?]
