[There's a voice appearing over the journals, though she's not sure how to really work the journal just yet.]

Is this...? Oh, no, I don't think so--

[A pair of green eyes might flash on the video screen for a moment, as Cecilia fiddles with the journal.]

Oh, oh! There we are, I think--

Um, hello? Oh, I think it's working now! [A pause.]

So, was what happened during the last week one of those "experiments" I have been informed about? I don't think I've ever experienced anything quite like it before. Have there been any that aren't so... terrible?

[After her post, she will be walking over to the library, and staying there until closing, a stack of books next to her. Will she be finding a secret porn stash? You decide.]

You mean like the drafts?

[That actually makes sense.]

I'm not sure how some a' that stuff would help, but you might be onto somethin'.

If it's a way to get out, then maybe that's why?

[There's always the other side of the coin, of where they're just stuck here to make sure people don't break out or leave, but...]

I'd like to think that, at least.

Ya mean you think they're trainin' us so we can get out? I guess I'd rather get out that way than hafta trust their weird technology stuff.

[Except the Battle Dome. That thing's cool.]

Maybe. Or maybe if we train more we can break out ourselves.

[That might be a sight to see, at least!]

You think so? People tried breakin' down the barrier before and they didn't even scratch it.

[The words are out of his mouth before he realizes that they're the kind of defeatist tripe that would raise his Family's ire. He hastily adds:]

I'm not sayin' that we shouldn't try, just that it'll be hard.

It might be for that... and it might be possible at some point. We just have to be positive about it, right?

[He gives a short laugh.]

I think it'll take a heckuva lot more than just bein' positive.

But that's the start in the right direction! You have to be positive about getting out, and then work for it, right?

Um... I guess?

[Well, he can't think of an argument.]

You've got a funny way of lookin' at things.

[She'll be quiet for a moment. Once she speaks up, she sounds a little concerned.]

Is that strange?

Yeah.

[He wonders if he should have worded that more tactfully. She doesn't sound too happy.]

Not that that's a bad thing-!

Well... you have to work for what you want, so... I guess it's a little strange.

Of course you do, why wouldn't you?

... [There's a pause at that. Knowing her own feelings on the matter, and knowing the stigma of 'getting everything without any problems'...]

Some would think different. Some would think that things can just fall into your lap.

[Something she's tried to avoid, herself.]

[The pause doesn't quite register with Firo; this is one of those subjects where he's too foolishly opinionated to pay much attention before speaking.]

They're stupid. Why would anything happen like that? You can't get anything done by just sittin' around and waitin'.

[There's a little laugh at that. She wishes she could tell that to some people.]

You're right. But others think that because they have the ability to make it happen.

Yeah? What do ya mean by that?
