My inmate has made notable progress recently, but still has difficulty understanding certain basics of interacting with his culture. This I'm not sure that I can help him with because while I've gained some knowledge from ports and breaches, it's not a lifetime of familiarity and certainly not enough to help him with the basics of interaction. I grew up in an entirely different environment [a surprisingly healthy one] with different standards of interaction, more confrontational. There's a cultural divide that I can't help him with.

So I need help from someone from the early 21st century to assist him. His has minor differences to the ones that we've encountered, like a class divide with technological capabilities, stronger military authority, and different popular figures, but otherwise on basic interaction it would be the same.

I would like Ben's room changed to a hotel room appropriate to his universe, era, and geographical location if he should return.

Also, a sleeping bag should he decide he would like to entertain company again. [He knows Ben would probably sleep on the floor before sharing a bed with someone, otherwise he would have asked for a queen sized bed.]

[A flicker of silence, then he just turns it off because that is the most awkward conversation either of them could possibly have.]

How is Dr. Kozak?

What exactly do you need?

Dude, I'd help, but it wouldn't be much fun for either of us.

Also, I ain't all that great with culture to begin with.

Well, you were right about one thing, and... I actually have no frakking idea if you were right or wrong about the other.

[Dylan hears that not-talking. And he answers it with not talking about Magog babies.]

Want to shoot some hoops later?

[And ignore that weirdness that took place those last few days.]

Well, neither of us was affected by the flood. [From what he can tell it seems like most of the people who were are none too happy about the aftermath, so best to get that out of the way first.] He's been keeping to himself since his stay in Lakeside.

[There's been a subtle change in the way Kozak behaves around him, too; their routine isn't any different, but the undercurrent of tension their tenuous understanding of one another had been built upon has all but disappeared. Kozak's almost companionable, in his own way. It hasn't gotten him to talk about whatever it is he's either dwelling over or trying not to think about, but Perry's confident he'll get around to it in his own time.]

He's alright. Just needs some time to process, I think.

Granted.

Gaheris?

[Ben sounds... confused. And anxious.]

Something has happened to my cabin. I don't... think it's mine anymore.
