[Anyone who's met Jacobi for more than fifteen seconds would be forgiven in thinking that this isn't Jacobi. This isn't the same man who packed explosives gleefully while being a sarcastic brat all at the same time. But Jacobi knows this. He knows what this is. So he's cheerful in a way that he had to once be literally programmed into.]

Hey guys! This isn't so bad, right? We're definitely going to be alright, aren't we? I mean! At least we have some food and water and a place to sleep! That's progress and something we can look forward to! We just need to work together and keep our chins up, right?

[It's easy to play the part when he isn't actually with anyone else. But Jacobi is frayed at the edges, and he knows that this won't last. There's even a time when he wishes for the regulator again. The very thing that had taken his freedom from him. And those times are when he paces his room like a caged tiger.

And that room is as much his prison as he makes it. Jacobi doesn't leave his room except when forced to work or forced to sing or forced to be social. He will take visitors, but he won't be pleasant to be around. He knows he can't graduate that way, but it just feels so good to be angry. Especially at first.]

I know, but it's hard when you're shy.

Re: Video

[mrballisticsdummy]

Are you shy or just weird?

Re: Video

[everythinglost]

Can't a person be both?

Re: Video

[mrballisticsdummy]

Okay smart-butt [UGH], assume for the question that the two are mutually exclusive.

[The not-swearing really does make everything more embarrassing.] Oh, definitely weird.

[Truly the worst part about this place.]

Now see, that's where I would have put you. So it's hard to put yourself out there because you're a weirdo. That's fine. Lots of people are weirdos who live perfectly normal lives.

Isn't there something contradictory there? I think it's in the part where it's hard to put myself out there. I've always thought that that's much harder for normal people.

Normal people? Eh, I wouldn't really know.

And here I thought I could learn from you about how we could get out of here - I mean, become people who the Nurse can proudly release.

You can learn how to do it superficially! Which - uh....seems just enough.
