.009 - lol he's not sorry at all for last week

[makeitwork]

Visitors, Jefferson's the name. I have traveled far and wide and I used to specialize in obtaining, uh... hard to find items. [Read: stealing] And I'm looking to come out of retirement. [Because thanks to Zev, he doesn't think he deserves his daughter. And if he's going to concede Grace to those people, then you better believe he's backsliding.]

Get me another hat. Get me out of here. Name your price. We can work something out.

Or you just might find out what happened to the last person that tried to manipulate one of me or mine.

And that? Was me threatening you.

Re: [Private]

[makeitwork]

Aren't you supposed to be a Warden?

[Private]

[mightymorbid]

A Warden protecting his Inmate.

Don't test me.

[Private]

[makeitwork]

Can't really protect her from herself, now can you?

[Private]

[mightymorbid]

You're right. I can't stop her from going to you. But I can hold it against you if you let her in when she visits, if you take favors from her, if you do anything but say "no" and go about your business when it comes to her.

Your Warden will be informed that the two of you are not to interact.

If you can't control your own Inmate, how can you think to control me?

[Private]

[mightymorbid]

Let me put it to you this way: Would you rather I start to think that you don't actually intend to harm her and that she's safe around you?

[Private]

[makeitwork]

What is safe?

[Private]

[mightymorbid]

Not using her magic would be a start. Not landing her in places like -- like that would go a long way, too.

Face it: you both stepped in it. You're showing no sign that you have any intention of stopping, either. I have no reason to believe you won't endanger her again.

[Private]

[makeitwork]

She wants to leave. She had the magic. I had the hat. You think we chose Wonderland? You think that was part of the plan?

[Private]

[mightymorbid]

Where did you expect to wind up?

If she wants to leave she has to graduate.

The same goes for you.

[Private]

[makeitwork]

I expected to have the choice. I expected the hat to be there.

[Private]

[mightymorbid]

Yeah, here's the thing: It never works that way. Never.

If it did, I'd hazard to guess you wouldn't even be here right now.

[Private]

[makeitwork]

You don't know anything about my hat.

[Private]

[mightymorbid]

It took us someplace where I had to ask xenophobic flowers for directions.

I've heard enough about it.

[Private]

[makeitwork]

Wonderland is not the hat. The hat touches infinite worlds. If there's magic, it goes there.
