Let's play a game. A secret game. The secret part is what you get when you win. Doesn't that sound fun? [He laughs softly.]

We all have things we're not supposed to have. Now, I don't expect you to tell me what those things are. I know you won't and, honestly, I don't care. but we're all inmates here. Theft should be of little consequence. But here's the game. Take one thing. Only one...and prove to me you have it.

Whoever has the best toy wins. And it's no fun if people get hurt, remember? Then the game's over and no one can play. You don't have to participate, of course. Your arguments of protests are so dull and they're counterproductive.

[He stops, as if he's finished, and then speaks again.] Oh, and don't let anyone else know you're participating. It ruins the surprise.

[OOC: ALSO, I should clarify...this isn't meant to actually happen, unless people actually do want to for some reason... XP He's just testing reactions.]

This isn't an argument or a protest, it's a question: why would anyone halfway intelligent participate in this?

The better a 'toy' somebody has, the less likely it is you've got anything comparable to offer as a prize, so what you're asking people to do is make themselves vulnerable for...maybe no return at all.

Here's a thought: why don't you prove you've got something worth having first?

Ah, now that is the question, isn't it?

Aaaand that is not an answer.

You're quite right, my dear. But why should I show my hand so early? Like I said, it's just a casual sort of game for any who need something to do.

It seems the trend is to complain, react, and then complain again. I'm trying to break the dreadful monotony.

Hey, if your idea of fun is taking a survey of how well-resourced the Inmates' moron contingent is, I'm not gonna try to dissuade you.

Now, now. Moron is such a harsh word.

Why, what word would you use for anyone dumb enough to show their hand to a total stranger?

Trusting.

Risky.

And you don't expect me to believe that anyone would actually show me the best thing they have?

Give it a few months, slick. Some people here? Capable of really stupid decisions.

Did you have a name?

I do, actually! It's Jim.

What's yours?

Just Jim, huh?

It's Shego.

Well, Shego, we'll see who goes for it. I suspect I can count you out of my game?

Uh huh. If anybody shows up besides organ guy I'll be genuinely surprised.

He's already won, of course.

He broke the monotony.

Well, you have fun with that. If this is the kinda thing you need to stop yourself dying of boredom, I hope for your sake there's a lot more guys with musical instruments around.
