[Inmate Filter]

Where would you go if you graduated tomorrow? I'm not asking in the sense of do you want to leave the Barge. Given an option of going wherever you want assuming you could leave the Barge tomorrow, would you want to return to your home universe?

[Someone has been doing some thinking about his options, and this may or may not be him finally actually being almost ready to get out of here.]

[But I thought Heero was the worst teenager ever. :\]

Same reason why you don't wanna go home, I bet.

[He's both. That's what happens when you're trained from toddlerhood to be the perfect soldier/assassin/terrorist. :|]

Meaning?

[Heero's got him beat there. :\]

Meaning, you can't go home again. And neither can I.

Why not? [You assume much, young Padawan.]

What's there to go back to?

Edited 2011-12-06 02:32 (UTC)

My job.

Oh, yeah, I forgot. You're the big hero. Gonna go back home and win the war single-handed, right?

No. [That would be dumb. :V]

So what is your plan? [Because... he's not seeing one. :\]

I don't know. [That's why he asked.]

Way I see it, you've got two choices: go home and get killed, or stay here and do... I don't know, wardening or something.

I can't stay here forever.

So go to some world where there's no war. What, you think you're gonna graduate soon or something?

I don't know.

You keep telling yourself that.

No one's ever bothered to tell me why I'm actually here.

I'd guess it had something to do with the killing people and whatever else you did before you got here.

Making assumptions is going to get you in serious trouble some day, David.

What, are you seriously gonna try and tell me you haven't killed people?

I don't think that's why I'm here.

Yeah, but if you already knew why you were here, you wouldn't be an inmate anymore, would you?

No. But I don't want to be one anymore. [... this is a big difference. :V]

And you think that makes a difference? Nobody wants to be an inmate. [Sadly, what Heero gets, David hasn't quite clicked to yet. :|]

I didn't care. [He was kind of cool with being dead, honestly. :|]

Yeah? So why do you suddenly care now?
