[David's about six months into his stay on the Barge and he's... frankly unimpressed. And a little bored. And a little annoyed with certain developments, so long as we're being totally honest, and after having a while to sit on it and think over the issue, he's turning on his communicator.]

In the past few months, two wardens have been demoted, [And both of them wardened people with his face, which is. Just weird. But there have been stranger freak coincidences in their lives, so.] and I've found myself wondering: why is it that inmates are subjected to such heavy questioning and scrutiny when they first arrive, and afterward, while wardens are almost automatically afforded a certain amount of trust by their peers?

Obviously, for the most part, it would seem that that trust hasn't been misplaced, but two demotions is still less than reassuring. Why should one put trust in any warden when they, too, have the potential to become an inmate?

I'm simply curious.

[Maybe.]

Warden's are admitted on a criteria. Any trust lies solely with the likelihood Warden's will continue to meet that criteria.

But everyone, wardens and inmates alike, have the potential to change for the worse and harm you in the transition. You might as well not trust anyone at all, regardless of whether or not they deserve it. Do you agree?

Well, that-- answers a facet of my question. Not exactly prime material for discussion, though, to repeat what you assume is common knowledge.

What do you require from someone in order to trust them?

You're going to receive a generic answer for the second question if you don't let me play my part.

Add a disclaimer next time.

[Sadly he's not even done yet.]

Charming smile, you have there. You should show it more often.

[Except the way he speaks indicates the exact opposite feeling.]
