[He has Harvey in the Infirmary, and he's sitting by the bed. Not smoking because apparently that's bad for the lungs, or something, and he's in an infirmary with injured people...]

Harvey and Two-Face are in custody. He's going on cabin arrest soon as he's patched up.

Tell you the truth, I think he'd like a little eye for an eye, so if you have a grudge and you don't mind spinning on the merry-go-round with him, I'm not going to step in if you decide to get some 'justice'.

But don't do it anywhere near his cabin.

If anyone knows what the hell happened, fill me in.

[OOC: For those who do respond with wanting to kill Harvey, the Motorcycle Boy will explain what's really going on and that he's actually doing this as a way to build some stability for Harvey to be out instead of Two-Face...but without Two-Face knowing it.

Also, if you try to come to the cabin, Motorcycle Boy is there and watching you and you will also get that explanation in private.]

Yeah but what about after the lockdown's over? This is a ship full of people that are the best at what they do, and sometimes that's harmless and misguided, and sometimes that involves killing the shit out of people, and they ain't gonna come where it's most obvious.

The smart ones, you're not even gonna get the chance to talk to.

I couldn't stop them even without an endorsement. This way if the worst happens, I can ask who did it and I'll get an answer easier than I would've otherwise.

Yeah, and if the worst happens and it's Harvey that gets his ass killed, you'll have proven to him that you just stood back and let it happen. Invited them to, even.

If they go after Harvey, it'll be really obvious that I'm not standing back.

It's this or give up on any kind of natural stability. Shitty choice but this is the better bet.

You aren't gonna be there all the time, is what I'm saying. Believe me, this ship has a way of pulling the fucking rug right out from under you and landing you on your ass on the wrong side of whatever you meant to do.

Yeah. I know. I'm getting as many people as I can on board, and I have to take the gamble that a few people treating him well can outweigh every single person hating him. Cause that's where he's at right now.

Gee, I wonder how anyone could hate such a charmer.

Hate makes sense, and I don't blame anyone for it. It's just not useful. I can't really afford to care about anything but what's useful, if I'm going to keep my inmate from getting worse. And if Cassel can understand it right after being attacked--and he does--then the rest of the Barge can fall in line behind him.

Yeah, well, Cassel can be kind of an idiot, and he's not a warden. Yet.

I'm gonna shut up now. Not because I agree, because I don't, but because it's already done. But if I see anyone wailing on anyone, I'm gonna stop it. Capiche?

Sounds fair. [He smiles slightly, seeming somehow surprised, and trying not to be.] Thanks.

[Dean, however, is done here.] Yeah, whatever.

[And he cuts the feed.]
