[Kitchen Warden Filter]

So my inmate, Ben - he's the kid that looks like Dean and's been running around introducing himself as X5-493 - needs a job. Neither of us are particularly picky in where he ends up so long as it'll keep him occupied and get him working with other people. He's never really had a "normal" life, and I think giving him something to do and making him keep a schedule'd be good for him. He follows directions and I think he'd be a decent fit wherever you guys would need him, honestly.

The one thing I just wanna put out there so everyone's aware, he can be a little unstable. Before he got here, he used to nab people, tattoo them, arm them, and then release them into a forest, where he'd hunt them down and kill them by breaking their necks. I completely understand why that's not exactly a "gee, I really want this kid on my shift in the dining hall", but I figure the more people know what to look for, and the more people who're keeping an eye on him, the easier it'll be to contain a situation if we have to. And I really think giving him something to focus on for at least part of the day that gets him interacting with other people learning a skill might cut down on the free time he'd have he might otherwise be using to cause trouble.

And I understand discretion's kinda a complicated thing here, what with the floods and whatever kinda suspending free will sometimes? But I'd really appreciate it if you don't let him know how much I filled you in on this. Believe me, it'll be better for all of us in the long run.

Ben? That's his name....

I am acquainted with him and willing to take him on for the dinner shift. I recently lost two workers and would appreciate the additional assistance.

[imfollowinghim]

Sounds good. I really appreciate it. How well do you know him?

[truth_is_cold]

I've spoken to him a few times and was one of the people to deliver him to the infirmary. I know him as well as he's allowed me to know him, which isn't much.

Thanks for looking out for him, he just told me about that when we got assigned. You'd think the Admiral would let people know about medical conditions the second they showed up here.

[truth_is_cold]

The Admiral likes to leave a host of unnecessary surprises for you to discover on your own. This was true of me as an inmate and a warden.

He's not so unstable that I can't handle him. I should be able to keep up with him if he were to try anything and my people are genetically inclined toward intense emotions. [Which it's obvious Rhade works at regulating his.] I'll keep an eye on him. He's a curious young man.

[imfollowinghim]

I've noticed.

Thanks. I don't want to over mother the guy, but I'd be lying if I said I was totally comfortable with him just wandering around unsupervised for most of the day.

[truth_is_cold]

I generally don't like the idea of sitting around and doing nothing anyway. I think giving him a job to feel useful in would be good for him. [Even with the access to knives. Look at his other workers :|]

[Anyone who starts a fight at dinner is an idiot, basically.]

He's never worked in a kitchen before, but I figure that's something you guys are used to coping with, and he seems like he'll be a fast learner.
