[Amanda, having slipped out of the infirmary as soon as she was awake enough, is now sprinting on unsteady legs in the direction of her cabin. The exertion in her breath is audible, and when she speaks, it's pretty damn clear that she has NO idea how long she's been out. She still thinks there's something she can do. D:]

The Admiral's a fucking ( Read more... )

...Amanda..

[She's awake. Dear god. No more peace. No more acceptance everyone would be for her again.

Except she's terrified and yelling about Sarah. and the bastard who took her away. That same frantic determination.]

He's gone. Stop. they've taken him down.

God it's so sad that this will probably be their only moment of commiseration til they graduate :c creatingalegacy November 10 2011, 00:13:48 UTC
[Amanda feels so suddenly relieved that she can't even begin to be nasty to him. The relief is plain as day in her voice.]

So she's back?

[For the first time in a long time Hoffman sounds hard-and dangerous. Very dangerous.]

...No.

I'm sorry. He grabbed a lot of people and the Admiral can't give them back. [He'd asked.]

He said they're safe but-

They can't come back. He won't bring them back.

[A shocked pause. Then, hissed:]

Bullshit. If the Admiral can fuckin' yank us here against our will then he can fuckin' bring a warden back!

Since Hoffman already broke the news... creatingalegacy November 10 2011, 00:24:52 UTC

It's too late to change anything.

I don't believe it. I refuse to. There's gotta be a way, there's always a way...a loophole, an exception...

I don't...

I mean. Short of taking the controls again, what can be done? Graduate and hope the Admiral sends you to her?

Re: Private creatingalegacy November 10 2011, 01:11:26 UTC
When I graduate I'm going to make sure the Admiral lets me die once and for all.

[She'll come around from this desire, thank god]

I can't go to her.

I see someone's already told you.

But he's gone. He won't be coming back, and he can't cause any more damage.

The fuck does it matter now. He couldn't possibly do any worse than this if he tried.

strangehstorian November 10 2011, 16:11:53 UTC
I'm afraid he certainly could.

Nothing I'd give a shit about.

Bit late for that.

...She might come back? I mean, it seems like a normal thing around here. Sometimes people just reappear.

creatingalegacy November 10 2011, 02:03:09 UTC
And when they come back, they've lost all their memories of this place. More often than not.

I don't know if that's worse than not knowing if she's safe.

I came back with all my memories! I think others have too.

Look -- I don't think I've even met you in person since you've probably been out of it since I got here. Unless you were here before, but I was apparently gone longer than I thought, so I dunno...

I lost people I cared about back home. Not here, so I can't say I know what that's like, at all. But I did see my best friend get blown up. And like -- okay, I just really didn't handle it well. I kept talking to him even though he wasn't even really there. But I think that things mighta gone a lot better if people didn't act like they didn't know what I was going through, or like they didn't even remember him being there.

Which is exactly what a lotta important people did to me. Like the guy we worked for? I mean like -- 24 was with him even longer than I was. And when we made friends we did everything together. We were recognized as something like...almost elite, y'know? But then as soon as he was dead it was like he never existed and nothing we did before he died ever fucking ( ... )

[A tiny, humorless laugh.]

Christ, you really don't know me. Half the people who do are probably thinking this is exactly what I deserve.

[A pause.]

Sorry...and thanks. Even after the heroin incident, I don't really expect random people to give a shit about me. Bad fuckin' habit.
