OFFICIAL WARDEN ANNOUNCEMENT! Completely public.

[buywithme]

Comrades, If you should encounter a situation in which my inmate: "Barron Sharpe" is aggressively removing his gloves at you, I would like to officially authorize punching him as an acceptable preventative measure against his trying to hold your hand.

Under no circumstances should you allow him to hold your hand.

You're going to deny me every way I can possibly deal with this, comrade, aren't you?

[he makes a 'psh' noise.] Some friend you are.

We have already established how I feel about you destroying your mind as a way to deal with your problems, Comrade. And I am still your friend.

It's not destroying my mind, comrade. At least, it's no more destroying than what I've done to myself.

Comrade, you might not think that's what you're signing up for, but... there's no reason why he wouldn't do that to you. So I will try and stop you, Comrade.

And, comrade.

I've already been destroyed as it is. How much worse could it get? At least this is on my own terms. Would you really deny me that?

All you ever talk about being important to you is power and control, but if you wanted to do this, then you'd be completely at his mercy! He could do whatever he wanted to you and you'd just be letting him!

I would deny you that, Comrade.

[Pause.]

Besides, it's bad for him.

And sometimes, comrade, you get power and control by surrendering it. You should know me well enough to know that's true, comrade.

Besides, I'd have ways to make sure it went how I intended.

Surrendering to a collective, Comrade, not to another inmate! If that's all you wanted to do, then you could just start doing what Una wants!

Well... Comrade, It is important to me that you retain your consciousness. That you stay yourself. So even if you could do it safely, I would like you to stay yourself, if possible.

Re: private

Except, comrade! I submit to one thing... one thing... and if it works?

I'm back to the true collective. I'm fixed.

But Comrade how could he? How could he ever know what it was you wanted in your mind? How could he ever understand what it is that you've lost, Brother?

Re: private

He couldn't.

But all I need to do is tell him to get rid of my memories of being here. That's all I need.
