round 05 [video]

[districttwo]

[Post this, Cato has finally emerged from the common room. and he is...full of unease but playing it cool. Oh so cool]

Are there mutts here?

[he hesitates] Is that part of the rehabilitation process? If inmates get...out of line are they fed or forced to square off against muttations?

[The saddest part about this, barge, is that he is beyond serious. Don't expect anything beyond nods and okays as far as responses go however.]


[Private to Dylan]

...There was...a thing. I thought it was a small mutt but it was just a regular dog I think but...

[and he lets that hang. Because. Dogs. He can't handle it.]

What's a muttation?

[ichoosefight]

Mutt...ation? I mean, some people have pets, but they're mostly harmless.

[cujothebigreddog]

There are dogs here? Most of'm are pets?

[surrenders]

[Somebody sees right through that cool; she's known enough teenage boys to know when they're playing rather than the real thing.]

No one gets fed to anything. Being scared keeps people in line, but it's not how they do things here.

[trenchcoatedly]

No. If you are forced to battle against something, the person telling you to do so is in error.

[Cato's file means that Dylan knows how Cato died. And can guess how badly Cato might react to dogs.]

A few people keep dogs here as pets, but there aren't any mutts. And I promise you that I will never let you be fed to anything.

Dude. What kind of fucked up world are you--

Okay, never mind, unless you feel like talking about it. Look, do you have an issue with dogs? Because I've got one, but he's really well trained. If we pass each other in the halls I can always steer him aside if it really bugs you.

You're not the only one who's from a world where dogs are used as weapons against people. But no one gets to do that here.

[most_feared]

There is no standard rehabilitation process.

[And then, because he has to know, considering.]

...Did you run into a dog, kid?

[darknessb4me]

No one's been thrown to beasts as a punishment that I've seen, but that would probably be less boring than zero.

[twooutoften]

That's what you call 'em? You shittin' me?

[He's friendly enough for now, all things considered, but he already dislikes your face, Cato.]
