[Loki's having trouble sleeping. The turbulence has his heart racing and stomach dropping with every sudden motion, and while he knows the likely reason why, he's not about to admit it. And while the Navarch's offer of medication is kind, he's not so certain he wants to knock himself out entirely while he's paired with his current inmate.
So he's up. And tense. And looking for a distraction. Perhaps he's not alone.]
Is anyone else awake? I'm not one for pills, unfortunately, so I haven't managed a single wink. And now I am just terribly bored.
Who's up for a chat? We're all still fairly new here, after all. Can't hurt to share the basics with the group, yes?
For example: Why are you here? Or why do you *think* you're here, at any rate. That should get us through the rest of the night on its own, for some of you.
But I also have time to hear all about your tragic childhoods and major regrets, if you'd like. Might as well get started on graduations while we've got the extra time. And what better time for baring your soul during a bout of insomnia?

But the Navarch picks specific inmates. Ones who can improve, in theory. Go back to their reality better than they left it.
How are you with change?

You think that you're special?

Though it sounds patronizing when you put it like that.
More than usual, anyway.
I just mean to say that it would be a colossal waste of time and energy to offer a chance at betterment to someone completely incapable of it. So clearly there is something in you that is worth dragging out into the light despite all the darkness surrounding it.

How poetic. Tell me, what justified the time and energy spent upon your darkness?
