I'd rather be left alone.

Right. I probably shouldn’t feel relieved by that answer but I do. I just… hope Rich is still around.
Really? I guess it could be for some people. Knitting? *smiles slightly, amused* At least you found a hobby, especially given the alternative. And yeah, I get that. At least…
Yeah, I guess. Probably wouldn’t feel too happy about it, huh? *chuckles dryly* I d… if Rich doesn’t come back that’s his decision. Worrying won’t do me any good.
I’m sure he’ll appreciate the scarf, especially if you’re making it for him. He sounds like a good master to have. *twitches a little at the nudge but smiles anyway* I… Uh, w-well, thanks. You’ve been a good friend to me, Marlon, I appreciate it. Wait you were in the circus? *smiles, slightly awed and surprised* That must have been exciting, what kinda stuff did you do? *clears his throat at the question and rubs his neck, shrugging* I was… I just did a few cleaning jobs… Not a lot to say really.
Hmm… alright, Robin… run along now… it was an… interesting chat but I’m bored now..
Now you’re learning…
What’s your name, kid?
I’m Robin.
It all depends on the master, I think. Your master can punish you any way he pleases. And given your master is Rich, that isn’t something you’re like.. ever, gonna have to worry about. So ya needn’t worry.
I mean, for a while, I can’t say I was having a good time. I was actually finding the whole thing to be a little on the boring side just because I wasn’t doing much, and I wasn’t interacting with that many people. Got left to knitting, of all things. But given the alternative. It just depends on which masters, and slaves ya interact with. But anyway, you’re welcome!
Right. I probably shouldn’t feel relieved by that answer but I do. I just… hope Rich is still around.
Really? I guess it could be for some people. Knitting? *smiles slightly, amused* At least you found a hobby, especially given the alternative. And yeah, I get that. At least I’ve… made a friend here, if you don’t mind me calling you that. And, er, not to be nosy but what did you do before you came here?
You’re not making any sense, kid… most of the masters here are influential, rich men… people who would be missed if they were kidnapped…
Why would they kidnap someone rich who would spend money here? Pretty sure most of the slaves are just… kids off the street and what not.. kids who wouldn’t be missed so there’s no one out there looking for them and putting the island at risk.
…
I see. If that’s the way you think I don’t think there’s any use in wasting my breath trying to get my point across to you.
Yeah, as in that. -Chuckles; I didn’t have to keep it in or anything but, ya know. -Gives an amused shake of his head.; Yeah, I’ve just observed enough to know better? I mean, as far as I’ve heard.. Punishment can get into like cutting and shit. So as far as punishments go, a little paddling and pluggin’ isn’t that big of a deal. It is, but it isn’t. I mean, I’ve been told that things generally aren’t all that bad, as long as you don’t fight against the place.. and I haven’t had a bad time.
Yeah, Honesty is a good way to go. -Chuckles; I’m sure I can say the same.. Place like this, a little silver lining is a very good thing. Just gotta make sure ya interact with the right people.. Well, actually. I guess it doesn’t matter who ya interact with as far as Dante is concerned. But ya know what I mean.
J-Jesus Christ, I… I know this might sound selfish of me, and it’s probably gonna sound like a dumb question b-but, eh… if you’re… claimed, can you still get punished like that? I’m not gonna be rebelling or nothing but it’d be nice to have the knowledge.
I can see how you’d have had a good time though, I was actually enjoying this place up until that announcement about the paddling. But I think I’ll try to keep my interactions to a minimum, I’m not a big peoples person anyway. Thanks for the heads up though, Marlon.
