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!

Not in the least.

So...

Why don't inmates get our own bathrooms?

[bargemods]

Mr. Strongfork, you are an intelligent, tenacious, investigative young man. I would encourage you to turn these gifts inward and focus on your own graduation.

[therushingsky]

You know what would be really encouraging?

A little more privacy when showering.

So why not?

[bargemods]

Would you accept me asking you a question in return?

[therushingsky]

I'll trade you an answer for an answer if that's what it'll take.

[bargemods]

How often do you use the inmate showers?

[therushingsky]

Almost never, but you shouldn't need to be fucking two wardens to have that option.

[bargemods]

What you're telling me is that regardless of the, ah, specific nature of your relationships, you've reached out to those around you and formed connections that allow you to make the best of an unideal situation.

[therushingsky]

Yeah, yeah, cool, except I formed connections with both of those guys while they were still inmates, meaning they were worthless and there's no need to encourage those connections...

So... I guess you're saying that wardens get control of the showers to incentivise inmates to form some kind of bond with them in exchange for being able to fulfil basic hygiene needs in private?

[bargemods]

I've given you an answer. Not the answer.

[therushingsky]

You've given me the runaround. I think because there isn't a reason. It's just how you decided to do it and you hate changing anything.

[bargemods]

No, Mr. Strongfork. I've given you a part of a whole.

[And when he next goes to his cabin, he'll find a plate of cookies, each one shaped like a different spring-blooming flower.]

[therushingsky]

What I wanted was a shower!

[And he will give you more grief about this at a later date.

But in the mean time, he will eat those cookies.]

[bargemods]

[Enjoy, Rhys. They almost tasted like pomegranates, but then he realized that that might send an unfortunate, unintended message.]

[therushingsky]

[Imagine the facilities he'd demand then!]
