Thanks, Miss Persson. It's good of you to let me talk to him about it. And thank you for answering my questions. I'm glad to have some answers.

From:

Oh. It's.. Well, I'm not certain it's the same place.

Are you lying about White Castle then? Someone warned me that the inmates can lie quite often.

From:

How do they know what colors the dots are if they can't see color themselves?

Yeah. It is.

Me too, Eddie. Thanks.

From:

Wardens lie just as much as the inmates, kid.

From:

I heard that too, actually. Yeah. I'm well prepared.

From:

Knowing the basic truth of this place isn't really 'well prepared'.

From:

Then what is?

From:

Well, has anyone told you what floods are yet?

From:

..No, they haven't. What are floods? They involve a ship, right?

My name's Chromie, I'm just another warden! You'll be paired up, not to worry, everyone is eventually. For now, just settle in and get to know your colleagues and the oddnesses of the Barge. You're going to have quite a lot of free time.

From:

There's number codes for colours. I presume that's how they know. Or they have an answer key, perhaps.

From:

Of course. And if there's anything else you need, please don't hesitate to ask.

From:

That's good. I'm actually quite used to a good deal of free time-- Do we have a field of some sort?

From:

....

I was never very good at art. It wasn't the colors; I suppose I didn't take it very seriously when I was younger.. and I wasn't very good, you understand. I'm not saying.. My art isn't like your color perception. I only meant that all of us aren't very good at some things -- outside of Kath, maybe. She was good at everything. -- But you shouldn't feel badly about it.

From:

I don't. I never have. In my world, I am very good at seeing colour.

Here... It's only when people try to make me feel bad about it that I do, but even then, I realised that whatever colours I see doesn't really matter.

From:

You're right, it doesn't. If they try to make you feel badly about it again, you should tell them to bugger off. It's not their business anyway.. the colors.. or whatever someone's not good at.

From:

I am good at seeing col...

I already did. If it happens again, I'll say it more forcefully.

From:

Oh, sorry. You are good where you come from you said? Yeah? That's good. Yeah. That's really good.

You do that.

From:

...It's only compared to the Previous that I'm rubbish at seeing colour. Not that it actually matters, but... at home it does matter, that's all.

From:

That's excellent, that you were good there. What about Jane though? It sounds like she wasn't quite as gifted.. or is it number of colors more than the percentages? I barely understand that in our own system. Education, you know.. number of top marks versus the rank of the marks themselves.

From:

It's definitely percentages. Although, colours have heirarchies. Grey, Red, Green, Orange, Blue, Yellow, Purple, Ultraviolet. But you get to be a Prefect if you have the highest colour perception.

But Jane's a better person than I am. Colour has nothing to do with it, really. It just makes you think you're better than other people.

From:

I'm not sure I understand that.. So you weren't better than anyone, you just thought you were?

From:

Kind of. Flood are where the Admiral decides to fuck with everybody on the boat. One of them turned me into a moose.
