He is a god of the Void and the sea from a world where religion is outlawed. [A sigh. ] So barring evidence to the contrary, I would assume that this is a matter of two very incompatible life experiences smashing into one another poorly.

Of course. I'm not about to gaslight Simon via his warden.

[ He snorts at the very idea. He shakes his head. ]

If I had to guess, [ very much honesty, though he mostly sounds tired ] I would say that he had no idea that someone might react with such ferocity to him. And he believed his own actions to be entirely neutral.

[ A finger raised. ]

To be clear, I don't think them to be neutral. And I have no doubt Simon felt attacked by it all. [ The hand is turned. ] But I don't believe there was intent to provoke for any reason, other than a desire for interest and interaction. More talking, to be clear. Nothing like this.

[ Only the smallest of eyerolls. ]I'm giving you my opinion, Miss Shaw.

The fact that I can phrase it without sounding like a jackass doesn't make it less honest. Specificity isn't an attempt to save your fragile feelings, I assure you.

Forgive me: a thoughtless jackass.

[ The eyeroll is not abating. ]

Excellent. Anything else you need or want from my side of things?

I was waiting for it, actually.

[ There's the distinct impression that Vincent is rubbing his temple. ]

No, I don't think he knew that at all, actually. His understanding of normal interaction... suffice to say it's non-existent.

And I doubt he 'broke in' so much as he probably appeared out of nowhere. He's a god, not a cat burglar.
monsterstoyou: (not that again)

[personal profile] monsterstoyou 2026-04-21 03:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Right. So. Where are you going with this?
monsterstoyou: (pb: wary)

[personal profile] monsterstoyou 2026-04-21 03:31 pm (UTC)(link)
[ A very flat look. ]

Yes [ He says it slowly. ] Which is why I am asking questions. What response were you expecting, exactly?
monsterstoyou: (pb: eyeroll)

[personal profile] monsterstoyou 2026-04-21 03:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Which is why I didn't say: why are you telling me this? [ Annoyed. ] I said 'where are you going with this?' as in 'is there more? do you have further specific issues? are there specific requests you have' because I am his warden.

If you're going to read between the lines, do it properly.

A point of order: he has appeared in one room. And unless the system has changed at any point, he shouldn't be able to do so unless the door was open or he is on Simon's room filter. Simon also didn't kill him at that point, so it is only a contributing factor, not the primary one. Nor has he mentioned from what you've said that Sider has done so again. Or that Sider harmed him, took anything, or otherwise damaged him or his property.

[ A hand raised. ]

Sider's personal boundary issues are something I take seriously. And have already taken steps to address and will continue to do so.

But considering that Simon is the one who killed someone in this instance, and that I found them in a hallway, nowhere near his room, giving no indication that there has been a repeat performance, I'm a little curious that this is the sticking point you have about the situation when Simon, again, violently murdered my inmate, something you've yet to indicate that you take seriously.

[ He's listening, but it's obvious at a few points that he's made certain decisions about her and her opinions. Mostly that they're based on her own conjecture and not on anything he's said or done. ]

Right. Well, you've proven yourself delusional twice now and that's my limit. Thank you for the assurances that someone is looking out for Simon. Good day, Warden Shaw. And good luck with your surveillance.

Excellent! So you're aware of your tendency to make things up to suit your narrative. Glad to know.

Again, good day.
