[The video clicks on, and hey Barge, it's Peter again. He looks a lot less sweaty, exhausted and covered in blood than the last time he made a post, considering the cuts on his face have been cleaned and bandaged and he's gotten some sleep, but he still looks a little like hell and he knows it.

At least he was smart enough to make this post when he wasn't all rambly thanks to painkillers, right?]

Hi, uh, take two, I guess. [And that would be a sort of self depreciating smile.] My name's Peter, I'm a warden, and I guess I'm gonna be here for a while.

[... Wait no that's not right.] Not in the infirmary, for a while, I mean, you know, on the Barge. For a while.

Sorry for making kind of a scene the other day, things got kind of crazy before I got here. [Which is the understatement of the century, but. Anyway, moving along.] And thanks for all the offers to help out. I definitely appreciate it.

So, uh, if there's anything I should know about working here, let me know? Thanks.

[Filtered to Tim and Alex]

Thanks for getting me to the infirmary. Sorry if I got any blood on you.

[Spam for Banner]

[Peter wasn't dumb enough to try and sneak out of the infirmary until he got the all clear from the infirmary staff, and on top of that, he really was kind of exhausted. Spending most of the previous night trying to save the city while getting the crap kicked out of you was not really something most people just walked off the day afterward.

Still, he wasn't really planning on spending the entire day napping, and when he caught sight of the doctor who had treated him, he perked up a little and called out to him.]

Hey, uh, Doctor Banner?

It's cool, I was more worried about you passing out on us.

[Private]

So what happened?

[Peter's had some time to think about how to answer this, and it's not really the best excuse ever, but it's workable, maybe. Assuming Tim doesn't ask too many questions.]

There was an attack on New York City by this um- [Okay, this actually sounds fucking ridiculous.] Guy who mutated himself into a giant lizard. I kind of got caught in the crossfire.

... Believe me, I know it sounds ridiculous, but that's seriously what happened.

[peektuttut]

[Tim still calls bullshit B(]

...It doesn't sound that ridiculous. I'm from Gotham.

[most_feared]

Pretty basic. There are floods and breaches. Floods are where the ship's not changed, but you are. Breaches involve you and the ship being changed together.

You doin' a lot better there, Slick?

[myresponsibility]

Think so. I'm not getting blood all over the carpet anymore, anyway.

What do you mean, we change or the ship does?

[most_feared]

I mean bodily or mentally you might be changed into something you're not mentally. This can be very much for the worse, so be prepared to be accountable for any actions that might occur during the ship's influence. Most people acknowledge the ship's at fault, but the inmates aren't here by choice and get tired of things happenin' to 'em.

When the ship changes, we all become a part of a- well I guess it's an alternate universe. A little pocket of reality where we're some other version of us, all from the same place.

[tolaywaste]

Yeah, I'm not gonna hold that against you, you were getting blood on everything.

"Things got kind of crazy?"

private

[myresponsibility]

Good point. [He should probably figure out if there's any carpet cleaner on board for his room or something. B(]

Yeah, there was this uh... guy who mutated himself into a giant lizard and kind of attacked New York City, and I sort of got caught in the middle of it.

[See, crazy.]

private

[tolaywaste]

That's, uh. That's pretty crazy.

So where'd the gunshot wound come from?

[Oh yay you didn't die after all, that's wonderful!]

You look better. Feel okay?

[myresponsibility]

[Peter appreciates your support, Cass. B(]

More or less.

[onceandfutureprat]

Are you certain you're alright?

[myresponsibility]

I'll be okay. The doctors here seem to know what they're doing.

[honeyimhome]

The floods can be a laugh and a half.

[Her tone is dry, but there's definite relief on her face. He doesn't look one hundred percent better, but he's .. not looking like he'll pass out right away, either.]

[myresponsibility]

[It's amazing what some sleep and medication can do for you. :c]

I've heard. Were people really like, five inches tall the other day?

[thirtyfiveminutes]

Welcome aboard, Peter. I'm Adrian. [He is quite worried about those cuts.] Are you all right?

[myresponsibility]

I'll be fine, thanks. Nice to meet you.

[aggravating]

Huh. Didn't realize the barge was combing preschool for wardens, now.

[Butthurt? Why no, of course not. Why would he ever be butthurt?]

[myresponsibility]

[Why with the butthurt, Tony.]

High school, actually, but who's keeping track?

[maidtoqueen]

Are you okay?

[myresponsibility]

Doing better, thanks. What's your name?

[strangehistorian]

Hello! Glad to see you're being tended to.

[myresponsibility]

Me too. Thanks.

[lastincident]

[ Bruce glanced over, from where he was putting a few items back in their locked cases. ]

Yes, Mr. Parker?

[myresponsibility]

[Peter's half tempted to say Peter's fine, smiling sheepishly, but genuinely.]

Thanks for patching me up.
