[ There's quite the text out there on the network tonight, Siren's Port, from a person who wishes to keep their identity quite under wraps. The anonymous communication is sent just as the sirens end, punctuating the alert for anyone looking over the feed. ]

A cage. That's what I'd call it. A well erected one with all the toysies we could hope for, all the people to make it feel like you never left, all the corruption of home... and then some.

A little birdy and her lovely pamphlet told me there's a secrets most people are keeping. Some of them don't even realize it. That everyone here is a little more than ordinary.

I disagree. Most people are ordinary or striving to be normal. Average. Mediocrity is soooooo fashionable.

B O R I N G

I wonder, could anyone really want to embrace anything more?

A lost opportunity that I am constantly mourning.

[ Translation: I don't give a shit. Well, in part, she does. If she's not going to be on Jim Moriarty's good side, then she wants no side of his. But she knows how eager he must be to make her his newest, most fashionable pair of shoes. It was a delicate game. ]

Castles are unfortunately rare in our new Canadian home. But I've found suitable replacements.

Oh, I see castles, Miss Adler. You just have to look in all the right places.

And are you intending to help me with that?

[ she's genuinely curious what his motives are here. ]

To the point. Don't you prefer drawing these things out?
I don't like to rush it.

I know what I want, when I want it. It's as simple as that. Easy peasy, isn't that how you prefer things?

[ no, this is not a game she would like to draw out, jim. this isn't the same as sending flirty texts and puzzles for six months. ]
