Comrades! Consumers!

Are you feeling the sting of loss in your life? The desperate cravings of inadequacy? Has your warden cut you off from something you long for and miss, or your inmate made it impossible to enjoy one of your former pleasures? Brothers, sisters, such times sting all of us at some point, but let these losses not deter us from our purer functions! Let them not drive us into states of brooding disapproval or let us search for an unmatchable fulfillment in our own souls! No, for doing this will only drag us deeper into the mindless quagmire of our own stinging loss! Comrades, instead let us ask ourselves why? What would really cure this pain? Not sitting alone in our rooms, nor distracting ourselves with the idle pleasures of company, NO Comrades! Do not be fooled by the blithe bragging of snake oil salesmen promising you gain through loss! Don't listen to the clamoring priests and evangelicals of loneliness and self indulgence! Comrades, the ache of loss is a physical manifestation of your own, wounded being, and can only be solved by the glorious deliverance of commerce!

Of products, Comrades!

It is in this spirit of hope that the Factory is forced to announce a brief intermission of access to our current stock. Know that we too feel the absence of that which we are cut off from, and that we will be there in sympathy and availability in your own times of hardship! Please direct any and all orders to our on site staff, who will endeavor to provide the very best of service even through this difficult period.

Comrades, believe always in strength through commerce! Through the bonds of the corporate family we are made whole, If you can not buy with me today, buy with me tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow, once more unto the breach, and onto every breach!

Amen.

Uh, Maybe not immediately Comrade, but I am still looking for the neccesary components to make you some...

Right. Products will make everyone feel better? You're something else, Prefect.

Oh, and thanks for the suit. It fits like a glove.

OH HARVEY, you made a robot happy!

You're welcome Harvey! I'm glad you're satisfied with it!

I think you're "something else" too, Comrade!

Aw! Prefect is just SO CUTE when he's happy.

It's good workmanship. Where did you learn to sew like that?

Ah, thanks I guess.

Then Harvey has made him ADORABLE!

Oh, I'm self taught Comrade! Someone else wanted a coat a few months ago, and I was out of stock, so I had to improvise.

You're welcome!

A happy Prefect is a healthy Prefect!

Really? Wow. I've never really had the time to actually sit down and learn something like that.
From: [identity profile] buywithme.livejournal.com
Oh I have a lot of free time Comrade, and If I can spend that time perfecting a skill I can use to create something that people need? Then I can think of no better way to spend my time!

YES!

That's really nice. Spending your time learning something that can help people is a good idea.

...of course, for you the added bonus of making something for people to buy would be good, wouldn't it?

Of course Comrade! I pride myself on doing everything within my power to provide, acquire, or produce anything that anyone might want to buy off me!

The better I am at that? The better I'm can fulfill my function.

Just make sure that you don't give certain people certain things. We don't want another death on the Barge.

No, we don't. Of course.
From: [identity profile] unbiasedchance.livejournal.com
...

What's wrong?

...oh. You were the one who died earlier, weren't you?

Oh Harv! Prefect DENIES YOUR GUILT!

From: [identity profile] buywithme.livejournal.com
It's okay Comrade. I'm fine now, no one got hurt in the long run!

That still won't make him stop feeling bad.

From: [identity profile] unbiasedchance.livejournal.com
But what if you didn't get brought back? Have you ever thought of that?

Aww Harvey! Your concern is most adorable!

From: [identity profile] buywithme.livejournal.com
But Comrade, I did get brought back! Sam remembered me this time! I was only gone for a few hours, and I'm okay now.

Aand now he's annoyed at stupid Sam.

This time? Don't tell me he forgot you before.

Prefect kind of loves you now Harvey <3

From: [identity profile] buywithme.livejournal.com
Yeah, he forgot me for a few days after that port with the aliens, but he doesn't remember any of that. He went away for a bit and when he came back he didn't remember ever being here.
From: [identity profile] buywithme.livejournal.com
I don't think he'd know what you were talking about Comrade. Besides it was a while ago now.

...Thank you for offering though.

Good little robot?
