Issue #70

[mistconduct]

Fuck me, we're four days into March and the port messed up my goddamn March Madness spread!

Fuck it, fine. Obviously since I can't watch college basketball on the Barge, we make our own entertainment here.

Bets are currently open to be placed on all inmates. It's $5 to play, 5 spots for $20. First inmate you picked to graduate gets paid out.

All unpaired inmates are wild cards - if you bet on them and they're first to graduate, you win a date with Loki in addition to the whole kit and caboodle.

Here's some sample odds I've got running;

Mickey - 2:1
The Emperor - 2:1
Abigail - 3:1
Cass - 3:1
Mira - 5:1
Tig - 10:1
Jax - 10:1
Touko - 20:1
Sylvanas - 25:1
Jerry - 25:1
Dean - 40:1
Arthas - 50:1

...Hey, does anyone else feel like utter crap?

It was probably a fluke.

Is it cheating if I bet on myself?

[fridgetothefire]

[t...otally ignoring the crown questions]

Oh no, I've been working on those since Christmas. Arthas got me study materials.

[mistconduct]

Slevin wasn't a fluke. Slevin was a goddamn portrait of perfection.


No, you can bet on yourself.

[mistconduct]

What the fuck? I thought you were baseline human. You can't just pick up powers on the fly.

[tucky]

You're betting for me?



I get 2:1 odds?

[She's just swimming in flattery today.]

[fridgetothefire]

Thanks.

[A quirk of a smile. She appreciates it.]

I think I do too.

[Even though it hurts.]

[tucky]

Where do you get money here? Where do you use money here?

[fridgetothefire]

[s h r u g]

It's a kind that's all math-based. Sparkle talents not required.

[versusnurture]

Really? That guy? He seemed really messed up.

[She said ironically.]

You realize most of us don't have any money though, right?

[versusnurture]

Is it going to disappear?

[mistconduct]

We're on kind of a pseudo screwed-up barter system. Sometimes I take cash from home and bring it to the Barge. Y'know, stimulating the economy and shit.

[routemistress]

Can be if I want to be, can't I?

Muppet.

[mistconduct]

Math based frost powers.

[mistconduct]

...We're talking about the Jim Hensen stuff still, right?

[mistconduct]

Pot calling kettle. You be nice to Slevin, he rocked.

Well, what do you have?

[no_tell_belle]

Alexander
Boyd
Lloyd
Liam
Jackson



And you can keep that date with Loki for yourself

[fridgetothefire]

Yep.

[routemistress]

Why wouldn't I?

[Flattery is mostly why she did it, to be honest; Tiffany has a way to go still, in Iris' opinion. She just thinks it's better to build up her confidence.]

[mistconduct]

Done. $20. You like the new ones, huh?

Why does no one like it when I pimp out my inmate?

[mistconduct]

Are you sure he's not just fucking with you?

[routemistress]

Right? If 'im and me were the last two sentient beings alive I'd need a lot of batteries.

[fridgetothefire]

I have no idea.

[Which totally isn't terrifying.]

[tucky]

Do you give it away?

[routemistress]

It's an exprssion. We're talking about 'ow I'm your auntie and I get to call you what I like.

[mistconduct]

Fine. Fine. Call me a muppet. I've been called worse things.



'Muppetfucker'? Nah.
