FOR JESSI even though this took too long
Apr. 26th, 2011 10:48 am[What is Arthur doing-- oh god, he looks TOTALLY RELAXED AND CHILL. He's actually grinning. Granted, he's not a linefacing robot even without Adam's influence, but let's face it: regular Arthur rarely, if ever, posts to the network for open social calls. The network is for business-- or, at least, it was. As far as anyone knows, however, Arthur's always been like this. He let loose pretty much immediately after coming to the Barge, much like a kid hitting college for the first time.]
I've got a proposal. Something that doesn't have to do with the flood. [He holds up his hands, as though he's placating an invisible audience.] Yeah, I know the other wardens are too busy making reports about this, that and the other [Smirk, airquotes, HE'S TURNING INTO EDDIE BROCK, SOB.] "crisis" that came up over the last few days, but I don't see the big deal. Only one person died, which I think is something of a Barge record. We should be celebrating, not adding more reports to the pile. It's not like anyone was responsible for what happened during the flood, so what's the point of tracking it?
It's like everyone wants to keep morale down. Look, trust me when I say: you dwell too much on the bad, bury your head in work? You're never gonna get anywhere. You'll just be miserable, which doesn't do your inmate any good, and it doesn't do you any good.
So, allow me to take some proactive measures for the good of the Barge. Pool party, tonight. After dinner. I'll supply the alcohol [Cough.] with 'donations' from the bar... And you just bring yourselves. And music. Unless you enjoy listening to French pop. [Laughing.] Not a word, Mal; I know you do.
And hey, inmates. [He grins and holds up his warden item-- it's a smartphone. REAL ARTHUR WILL BE SO PISSED THAT HE OUTED HIS ITEM.] Consider this your free pass into the party. So, come on, forget about the day-to-day "Barge trauma" and stop by the pool tonight.
Especially you, Perry. [Loftily, complete with an imperious wave of his hand:] As your warden, I command it.
[OOC: THIS ARTHUR DOESN'T PAY ATTENTION TO THINGS LOL, so he only knows about Cissie's death, not Loki's or anybody else. Others are free to look down on him as a lazy warden, since he likely doesn't participate in anything wardenly, fails to keep a lot of warden stuff behind filters, and just focuses on being pals with his inmates.
And er, IDK if people really want a ~pool party log~ but if they do, I'll start one after work. IF NOT, I'll put up an OOC post to work out deets.]
