neornitheslogs | Saving Second and the Red Rebellion: MEETING

[ Upon arriving in one of the most luxurious "cells" in the F block, one curious thing of note is that Anastasia's room has been turned remarkably upside down. With a little help, most of the furniture, blankets, and draperies have been turned into a pillow fort of sorts.

It looks rather childish, perhaps, but when you're dealing with someone who has cameras in nearly every room in the prison and very much don't have your own construction crew, you have to take precautions to avoid anyone finding out just what the real intentions are and just make certain that they think you're plotting a riot. Anastasia's taken care to hide her extra candies and anything else she thinks might be at risk for being stolen that wouldn't be too obvious to stop, but even with all the hubbub it's clear that this room isn't something that a normal inmate would be able to afford.

Once everyone arrives and settles in around the table lamp that was brought into the fort, Anastasia will be speaking to them as a group and.. not necessarily telling everyone each part of the plan. If there are specific parts that need to only be known to specific people, she'll pull them aside. ]

Before we begin, let me get one thing straight. I don't care what your purpose in joining us is provided it isn't a voice for the Warden. If it is I have no problem lobbing your head off myself, I can afford the penalty.

[ There's a smile on her face for a brief moment before she continues. ]

Some of you will be causing a riot to draw attention away from a few smaller teams. Make it big. One team to take care of the cameras, one will lead a charge into the medical area for an ambush. Once Second is retrieved, Babydoll and I will take Second to an undisclosed location known only to a select few. Before you speak at any point during discussion, you are to state your name and cell number. [ That second part is more important to Anastasia than the names, actually. ] Teams are...

Useful only to those that give him his best odds.

[ He eyes her then raises his brows at her and cocking his head to the side ]

Every side he's on can be overruled by my own. You should remember that.

I'm not planning on taking him from you, I'm worried about the Warden having cards she hasn't shown yet that might persuade him that his chances are better served with her.

[ a laugh ]

I wouldn't worry about that if I were you.

Is this another one of your "nevers"?

No. It's just a fact. All sides the Captain takes are all mine.

Anything's possible in Wonderland, darling. If you can believe something, so can someone else. But I'll trust your judgment about him for now.

I'm afraid you don't entirely understand the full implications of that statement but I appreciate the trust in my judgement.

I certainly understand that you underestimate me.

I don't.

If you think I don't understand the implications of my own words I'd beg to differ.

You'd have those words if I was the one on your end.

I'd have those words no matter who was on whose end. I have before, do now, and will do so in the future. The only difference between us is what drives us to make those choices.

[ Anastasia decides to pull one little offer that might be a bit more tantalizing than her previous ones. After all, she does want to make sure that Peter is on her side- regardless of what that side is in the future. ]

Example: I told you how to fix your heart in here but I've certainly got other ways of doing it on the outside. It isn't as though I put all of my assets where they could be reached after I was arrested. A doctor who doesn't want to play around and doesn't require a payment so steep might be more of a satisfying result than anything the Warden offers in captivity, wouldn't you say?

[ She's certainly got money hidden away. If Peter goes for an escape she can pay for someone to fix his heart even if they have to cut it out of someone else's chest. An option with freedom isn't something the Warden would likely offer even if she offered to fix it for him if he took her side. Even the Warden's hands might be tied by that. ]

You certainly know how to play this game, don't you?

[ just an admiring comment. he's not going to state wither or not he'd take said deal but he does flash a geniune-looking smile. ]

That I do.

[ Her tone perks up a little after that, regardless of whether he accepted or not. ]

And since I'm going for a more honest streak nowadays you don't have to worry about me upholding my end of bargains. I already have what I want, for me it's a matter of keeping it.

You don't need to help anyone if you already have what you want, you know.

You do when what you want is what most here would consider a weakness. I'm not helping Second so much as ensuring that I can find conditions that I get to keep what I have.

Edited 2014-04-05 22:30 (UTC)

Is Second going to help you two leave? That would ensure keeping, wouldn't it?

I don't intend on leaving.

I hardly buy that either of you would be perfectly content living the rest of your lives in a prison.

Edited 2014-04-06 07:48 (UTC)

There are certain conditions to be set for it to happen, but at the moment the alternate choice is to break out of here and spend the rest of our lives on the run living looking over our shoulders for more than just the police. I've already taken steps toward those conditions.

A life running seems better than a life in chains to me.

Between a man I find more troublesome than the Warden after my head and an entire mob after Will's, there's more freedom behind these bars for us than there is out. He got arrested on purpose because it was safer.

I thought he got arrested on purpose because he's an idiot.

Edited 2014-04-06 23:22 (UTC)

He didn't intend to get transferred here. [ Tiniest pause. It's not like she minds it but- ] It can be a side-point at times.

Mm. Not everyone is me, after all. So foolish. [ the pause makes him grin ] But he's your idiot so it's fine, I'm sure.
