[Warden Filter]
I'm not big on speeches, so I'm going to make this quick.

[Arthur's voice is a frustrated growl right now. He sounds about ready to punch something. Also, he's hanging out by the entrance to Level 0 and keeping his voice somewhat low so Perry can't overhear. This also means that because he's by the entrance, anybody else looking to sneak past him to play with Perry while he's making this post... would have to be invisible and teleport through the door, I guess?]

To those of you having a laugh about Perry's big-screen debut-- [Have some condescension:] and I know some of you are, despite the big W next to your names-- you do realize that he wasn't just "beating up" Rex, right? That part, where he stops moving? He's not unconscious; he's dead. That's a snuff video. It's not a goddamn joke.

I don't give a damn how you feel about Rex. I don't care what he did to you-- and yeah, I was affected along with the rest of you. When you support something like that video, you're not just doing it at his expense. You're doing it at my inmate's. He's not your attack dog; he didn't kill Rex for any one of you, and it's not behavior I want encouraged.

You'd think that'd go without saying, right? I sure as hell thought so. I knew I had to expect some inmates patting him on the back for a major backslide, but I didn't think I'd have to worry about wardens doing it. Wardens sneaking around behind my back to give him positive reinforcement for his actions. Wardens trying to congratulate him. Wardens going against my explicit orders to leave Perry to me. Wardens making it so I've got to keep one eye open for them at all times, when I should be focusing on my goddamn inmate!

Yeah, I know I'm saying "wardens," but what I really mean is Loki, who I've had to chase away three times now. But hell, who knows, there could be more of you who think Perry did a big public service for you.

It takes a lot to turn a man into a calculated murderer. Perry wasn't one before he came here. Now it's my job to push him back to Square One, and I don't need you assholes undermining me and standing in the way.

If I hear about any one of you trying to sneak around to congratulate him, to give him a fucking prize for killing a man, I'll put a bullet in your goddamn head to give you a headache as big as mine. And the only reason I'm not telling your inmates this is I expect you to pass the word if you think your inmate's up to something with him. You know your inmates better than me, so you should be aware of any [Sarcastically:] "budding alliances". Anybody looking to turn my inmate into their personal attack dog better think twice.

Keep a tight leash on your inmates, while I try to do the same with mine. And any unpaired wardens out there might want to try their hands at keeping an eye on Loki, so I can get back to my job already.

[With a disgusted noise, he turns off the communicator.]

[OOC: I WILL NOT GUARANTEE RESPONSES TO THIS. Arthur just wanted to alert the other wardens to 1) Loki undermining him and trying to applaud his inmate's backslide and 2) the possibility that their own inmates will probably try to seek out an alliance with Perry now to take out their own enemies... although that part kinda got lost in his bitchiness :V Anyway, he's not up for playing ~barge politics~ right now, so that's why there may not be responses from him. BUT YOU GUYS ARE FREE TO DISCUSS WITH EACH OTHER, IDC.]

No, you're right, a warden legitimizing what he's done is exactly like a scraped knee.

Get off your ass and do something about him, or go away.

I'm not going to argue with you.

So I'm going to take that as you going away? Good. Because I'm not looking for a debate with someone who's going to make up excuses for a "warden" who shouldn't even be here.

I'm going to talk to him. I cannot do anything else since I'm not actually his warden.

And think about this. You're asking for help from a man you have just called incompetent.

Go hold your inmate's hand, and leave me alone.

And you didn't do a good job when you were, by the looks of things.

No, I'm asking for somebody to get rid of him so I can go back to my job. But I can see where he gets his immunity to reason from. By the way, I didn't call him "incompetent," I called him unfit to be a warden, because he'd rather undermine other wardens than do anything with his own inmate.

You talked to me when I didn't even call you out, and now you're telling me to... leave you alone. When I'm responding to you. Fuck off.

I told you several exchanges ago I was done with this conversation, and you continued. Do not use that language with me. You implied I was incompetent by saying he shouldn't be a warden.

And you started this exchange by implying that I was incompetent. So, you can only dish out moral superiority, then hide when it's challenged. Having a dialogue with you is as pointless as it was with Loki.

And for this you expect me to do as you've asked?

You're welcome, monsieur.

I don't give a damn what you do.

Colorful and polite as always. Monsieur Maguire doesn't curse have as offensively as you do.

And you're a pretty despicable person for downplaying how sick it is to laugh at a snuff video for the sake of looking like less of a failure as a warden. I don't have to swear to be half as bad as you.

Think on that.

I have seen men and women cheer beheadings by the dozens. One murder is pretty damn awful, but when there's enough hatred involved people lose their sense of appropriate. I know something of Loki's history with Rex, and he feels something like that.

Leave me alone so I have a chance of talking to Loki, so you won't be bothered when trying to do your job.

[And Arthur's skeptical of any impact this will have.]
