1 - I think it better in times like these...

[cujothebigreddog]

[Hendricks has been doing his backreading. Strange days. He wonders how common they are. ...and look, people are the same all over, from any culture or technology level. He's not surprised that the Stanford Prisoner Experiment was invoked recently, although he's more surprised that on the balance, there isn't general rule by the more literally super-powered. That's something worth having some renewed faith in.

Also he's going to have to pay attention to the rights of non-humans-- the vampires here aren't the Black court scourges or the White court soul eaters he's used to and he has to be better than preconceptions to do this job. He'll have to figure out how to talk to the local werewolf about what form her theriomorphy takes, because she seems to be halfway between a Lycanthrope and a Werewolf in the terms of his universe.

He thinks all that and he says:]

Hey. Name's Hendricks. I'm from Chicago. New warden.

Nice to meetcha.

[And speaking of the local werewolf, she was not joking around about that whole "warden test" idea: she switches immediately before she replies. Let's see if he can see it...]

Welcome aboard, Mr. Hendricks. My name is Captain Angua von Uberwald, fellow warden. [And, because it is the warden filter...] And werewolf, incidentally, we may as well get that out of the way right off the bat. Vegetarian werewolf. Do you have any questions about the place?

[Warden Filter]

[cujothebigreddog]

Why vegetarian and just not burgers?

[He's interested in her specific ethics. And it helps him deal with being Cujo the Attack Dog if he can pretend his dumb questions are Socratic.

But then he just feels pretentious.]

I guess I don't have any questions yet. I gotta see what it's like for a while.

[scentbombed]

[Oh, good. She visibly relaxes, although the question makes her peer at the camera.]

Why would I cut out only burgers?

[Private]

[strangehistorian]

I think this is a very good idea. The testing, I mean.

[hunt4commonwealth]

Welcome aboard, Mr. Hendricks. I'm new here myself. My name's Dylan Hunt.

[cujothebigreddog]

Hi, Mister Hunt. What do you do for a day job?

[trenchcoatedly]

Welcome, Hendricks. My name is Castiel, and I'm also a warden. I'm from heaven.

[cujothebigreddog]

[One of the angels from his universe? Or another kind? Or Denarian, fallen but still technically angels? None of the Denarians he know of go by 'Castiel' and he hasn't met many of the fallen who bother to look human.

Then again Namshiel was a magic user who could change shapes easily and whereabouts-unkown, so let's stay cautious here. He grunts:]

From heaven. Like an angel?

[mightymorbid]

Man of many words?

[cujothebigreddog]

Wasn't part of the job description.

[nakesnakecobracobra]

My, you're a large one.

[ Medusa's been laying low since her last beating. So. Less trolling. ]

I am Medusa.

[cujothebigreddog]

Interesting name. You greek?

[hungryanhorny]

Hey. [Faith's just gonna look him over now.]

[cujothebigreddog]

[Oh, he sees your monosyllable challenge and he accepts it.]

Hey.

[flashy_magic]

You know, I think there might be a word or two you could cut out of your introduction to make it even shorter.

[cujothebigreddog]

You're kind of a smartass, aren'tcha.

Useless comment

[timesbureaucrat]

[Narvin approves of your snark, Drake.

But facepalms a little at the bounteous trust in people displayed further below.]

[strangehistorian]

Hi there! My name's Chromie!

[cujothebigreddog]

Hey. [He lifts a hand in the camera.]

What do you do around here?

[truth_is_cold]

My name is Gaheris Rhade. I used to be Captain Hunt's XO. Now I'm pretty much a glorified museum curator.

It's a pleasure. Do you have any questions?

[cujothebigreddog]

I do, I think. There doesn't seem to be any money. Is it just provided? Are there regulations on what you eat, what you take out of the library?

[most_feared]

Howdy.

Name's "K".

[Thorough introductions are thorough, right? Right.]

[cujothebigreddog]

Like the letter or like Mary?

[video]

[notthatfondue]

It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Hendricks. I'm Agent Carter, another warden. Any questions I can attempt to answer?

[video]

[cujothebigreddog]

I've got some of the bases covered. I'll probably have questions about day to day stuff after I've been here a while.
