"Would it be a bad idea to show it to him in the brig?"

[thinkering]

"Prrrrrobably."

[mxglam]

"Awwww."

[thinkering]

"Yeah, I know."

[mxglam]

"He was angry at Rewind before, now..."

[thinkering]

"...now let's hope they Birdcage him."

[mxglam]

"Yup. It might be useful to publish funny videos of him, so he won't be able to command as much respect as he could before..."

[thinkering]

"I make a habit of that."

[mrglam]

"Yes, I've noticed. It's why I love you." Pause. "Well, it's one of the reasons."

[mrglam]

"Yeah, of course, and in any case it's not like musings about humiliating him will change anything."

[thinkering]

"Indeed not." Yawn. "I think I'm crashing. G'night."

[mrglam]

"Good night, love. Sleep well."

[thinkering]

She squeezes his hand and goes to meet up with her dad and bounce home.
