[ Grace actually got here a while ago. Apart from a brief encounter with one guy by the inmate cells, she's been drifting around, invisible. Watching. Not talking to anyone, just observing. One guy got handcuffed to the cafeteria tables. It very much reinforced her resolve about staying invisible for a little while.

But she hadn't been lazy-- Her first goal was to raid the research library to find some stuff written by people who are way, WAY more experienced than her about this whole situation. She's spent the past few days reading in her room.

Probably now that she's more acclimatized, it'll be an okay time to try to communicate. Safer. Via text. ]

hello

since arriving here i've been trying to read more about what the experts in the field recommend to assist with prisoner rehabilitation and reintegration. a lot of it seems... difficult to implement, at least immediately

but one of the things they discuss is the option of Group Therapy and i was just wondering if there was anything like that already available

it seems like it could be helpful

I'm really, really tired of people acting like I'm insane for pointing out that this place is fucking sketchy.

So, nobody believes I don't deserve to be here. OK! Fine!

Imagine one of the inmates doesn't. Imagine it's because of a computer error, or because someone upstairs wanted them out of the way. Or because someone just mixed their name up with someone else. Or because the person making the checks about who's good or bad has a bias or a prejudice. Make someone up if you've already decided you hate us all individually.

Would that inmate be able to convince anybody - ANYBODY - that they were innocent?

I hate this. It's scary. I'm tired. I didn't do anything. I want to go home.

Coffee would be great.

[ Where they can TALK. Like THERAPY. NOW who's the winner!! ]

I just wanna chime in here and say I also haven’t don’t anything incarceration worthy. Both for the record and so that you can see that there’s a pattern.

You can just ask her to have coffee with you too.

I don't want coffee, I just want to be on the record.
