I have several requests. For one, the lunch shift is no longer covered by a warden supervisor and we will require a volunteer. For another, I used to run drills aboard my ship. I know there are a few soldiers or former military here and convenient obstacle courses on which to train. If there are willing participants, I would like to start running some weekly drills again. [He may have other intentions that he wants to use this for as well.] I would like to give the training simulator some real use.

[And another thought.] I- [And he's thinking of requesting company again for that night. The network erroring made him feel a little out of sorts in a very lonely Nietzschean way. He decides ultimately not to, however.] -I suppose that will be it.

[Private to Iris | Audio]

[Since she's suitably matriarch-like and doesn't seem to be lacking in experience, he has a question for her.] May I ask you something? Depending on your number of courtiers in the past I thought you may have some reasonable advice.

Could pick that shift up, if you don't have anybody. Paid enough attention when I was doing it. [Being in charge for real makes her a little nervous, but she needs to keep doing, have excuses so Ladd has to go to the kid, not her.]

Something up?

No. I was just [feeling lonely] wanting sex. It will pass. How have you been?

[Whether he's deflecting or telling the whole truth she couldn't tell you for sure, but has a guess.]

So nothing I can help with.

[let's be real she probably would if Ladd wasn't in the picture but let's not even go near that]

Amanda call you up? [She's actually pretty good today.]

Maybe we should test that training simulator out, see what it can do before you start putting poor, unsuspecting souls through your bootcamp.

[Ben has been quiet since the communicator malfunctions; difficult to say whether or not he noticed his clone around the network, if anything came of the conversation with the girl on the phone. If he even answered her.

Yes, sir. No, sir. Today I feel alright. Dinner service made me feel useful. Tonight I learned a new chess strategy. No, sir. Yes, sir. He stays mostly out of the way, five minutes early to every deadline and never any backtalk.

Today, he shows up at Rhade's door with decided purpose, drawing up short to a correct, precise attention stance just to one side of the doorway, eyes unfocused into the middle distance as is exactly proper.

[He saw the exchange, but he's still not certain what to make of more than half the things he's learned in just the past couple weeks; about himself, about how Rhade really doesn't think he's a lost cause, how Max thinks he can turn it around.

In its way, it's a lot of pressure - he tries to be good. He's certain that he's broken. Ben enters as bidden, three even steps with none of his usual visual trace of the room; he doesn't smile.

Am I intended to report for the training sessions, sir?

It's an unusual question. [He looks for the easiest way to turn the situation around.]

Let us say you've had an admirer for some time, but you only just realized it. They're not particularly someone you can feel that way for, but don't want to lose their friendship.

How would you best address the situation and preserve the individual's feelings- hypothetically. I can't imagine there's any perfect way to go about it, but there must be some way such a situation somewhat comfortably.
