ADMIRAL REQUESTS
New Admiral Request Page Found Here

Post your requests to the Admiral below (and also a note if you would specifically like that request to be rejected), and we will get to them in a timely manner. All Admiral requests (with the exception of Inmate resurrections) must go through this post, and their approval cannot be handwaved. Additionally, requests will only be granted to Wardens.

Unless otherwise specifically noted, all threads on this post are considered to be Private.

Though the Barge does not speak in any traditional way and is not reachable by communicator, it is sentient, and characters occasionally reach out to it via tapping on walls in Morse Code, spelling out messages in alphabet-letter fridge magnets, and other creative methods; if your character decides to try this, those messages may be dropped here as well!

Would you prefer I not revive anyone at all?

Be consoled that it's a party trick I never tire of.

A day later, considerably more calmly and less combatively

[stormandwind]

Of course not. Thank you for doing that.

I would, however, still very much like to know if there's a specific reason this matter is handled differently for inmates than for wardens. Obviously some differences in treatment and privileges are a necessity of the operation of the Barge. Do you see this one as truly necessary? If so, would you mind telling me why?

[bargemods]

This is still a prison, petal, and you are here to fill a duty. Part of that duty is looking after your charge. If more of my wardens managed to keep an eye on those not fortunate enough to have a warden of their own, perhaps Mr. Rogers would not have waited days to be noticed.

[Gritting her teeth at 'petal,' but still keeping her voice level and free of anger or frustration.]

You have a point, but I do check on Steve daily. I was unconscious, which goes back to the issue that even assigned inmates might have wardens who are incapacitated.

[bargemods]

You are not the only warden on board, dear.

[stormandwind]

Which addresses the issue of Steve specifically, and unassigned inmates.

If Erskine were lying dead, would you consider it other wardens' responsibility to go looking for him? I've always gotten the impression that we're discouraged from interfering in one another's assigned pairings, and they would have no way of knowing he'd come to harm.

[bargemods]

What exactly gave you the impression that the job of redemption would be easy, Miss Chandler? I'd like to leave it out of my next interview.

[stormandwind]

I had no expectation it would be easy, just the mistaken one that you might bestir yourself the same way for anyone on your ship when it comes to matters of life and death rather than drawing unnecessary distinctions between warden and inmate. I don't know why. That was uncharacteristically optimistic of me, and I'll be sure to revise it.

Thank you again for reviving Steve.

[bargemods]

Just as death is not the same here as it is in your home, it is not the same for me as it is for you.

This is the job, dear, with its perks and downsides.

[stormandwind]

Understood. [Whoops, did that sound grim and perhaps not entirely sincere?]
