Hey Admiral, while you're scraping the bottom barrel of hell for inmates, why not grab Attila the Hun while you're at it? Fuck this place. Even Arkham does a better job.

Nah, only Wardens do. [Shakes his head at the mention of Megamind and rolls his eyes.]

I'll let you in on a couple of fun facts. The first being to ignore that dumbass. The guy rambles on so much I swear he must get off on the sound of his own voice. The second is that everyone here who is an Inmate with some kind of special ability has had it restricted in some way. Unless their Warden decides they are being responsible. So if they fuck up, it will probably be restricted again. Guess what that means.

It means that the Inmate's sucking the Warden's dick just to get their own goddamn powers back.

[Laughs and it's just a little off kilter.]

Yeah, there is that. It's also good news for regular humans. My abilities haven't been restricted in anyway because I'm all human. I've trained in a whole lot of things. You're looking at a guy who trekked across multiple universes, and kicked all kinds of alien ass with his bare fists.

[Donna and Kyle were there with him, but he was still able to hold his own.]

Dude, that is the most badass thing I have ever heard in my life. I respect that. Shit, I bet you could beat up any number of these fuckers without even trying!

You got it. [Smirks.]

For those who can get the jump on me because they have had their powers unrestricted or they are a Warden? If they become a problem then I'll find a way under their skin. If they beat the shit out of me because I ran my mouth, there are going to be consequences. There are some Wardens here who actually give a fuck about their job, so they'd want to make sure there are consequences. I'm good with a few broken bones that'll heal up quickly thanks to the special medical equipment they have here, if it means getting someone's powers restricted, or a Warden being demoted.

So you start fights because they can't take away physical ability, but the guys you take on get their powers reduced and aren't as threatening.

Fuck yeah. That's awesome!

Exactly. [Grips the cell bars and a large, vicious smile crosses his lips.]

That's the beauty of death not being a permanent thing here; it balances out a lot of things. If you're smart, can handle pain, and know how to push people's buttons, you can make this shithole work for you.

Jason, that's me. I can help you! I'm not all that great at fighting yet, but I can piss people off like you wouldn't believe and I can take a hit!

[Looks him over. He doesn't want the kid getting himself messed up on his behalf, but he has potential.]

Maybe. You're going to need to be able to take more than a hit. You're going to have to hold your own in a fight, so you can really push people, and wait for them to make a really vicious strike. If you're up for some serious training, that will really push you, then you've got a shot.

Yes. Yes. Dude, I can do this! I'm ready. Fucking let's go!

If you want to get started, then use this down time as a way to start building up some physical strength and stamina. How many push-ups can you do?

...Real push-ups or girl push-ups?

[Facepalms.] Real push ups. If you knew the girls I know, you wouldn't differentiate between the two.

Oh.

[Fuck. What's a high, impressive number? Chris thinks hard, unwilling to admit the last push-ups he did were in junior high gym class]

Seventy, eighty? I lose count.

[Stares at his scrawny build and then eyes him.]

Oh yeah? Put your device down on the ground so I can see you, and then demonstrate thirty for me.

What, right now? I'm talking to you. I'm not. What? The shithead in the other cell'll look over.

Uh huh. I've actually got a couple of things I've got to do. When you're out of there, we'll talk in person, alright?

[Work on those push ups in the meantime.]

Sure. I'll come find you.

[Because if he'd been made to do push-ups, he thinks he could manage about six before falling over]
