5th Tail - Filtered to Wardens Only

I've been thinking a lot about how I'm going to help Facilier.

Part of why he is the way he is, is because he's been marginalized. And while I can't say I've had as much direct experience as he's had with that kind of situation, my mother certainly has. He's made choices that grant him power over others because he's felt powerless himself.

I don't think menial labor is going to be a productive part of any rehabilitation I offer him, but I do want him to take on some form of responsibility in which he has to care for someone or something's well being even in some small degree.

I don't think he understands that loyalty and friendship and love of any kind can make a person inclined to act without expectation. That you can do things for other people without expecting to get something in return. I'm pretty sure these are the core problems, but I'm not sure how to go about addressing them.

Any advice, especially from wardens with a lot of experience, would be super helpful.

Hunger Games? Do I even want to know?

Kyle Blackson. Well met, Kira.

Probably not, given that it's entirely probable that someday we might actually get people here from that world.

Thank you for suggesting stuff, Kyle. It's been really helpful!

Right.

And sure, sorry it's not so relevant for the time being. I'm still kind of new at this. As in, today new at this.

Wow, really? Well, we're all new once. I practically never left the deck when I first got here. Welcome!

Um, no, not exactly. I mean, thanks, but. I was an inmate here for a while already. A long while.
