So.

Who promised you the world on a platter while you were here, that's what I want to know. Who promised you the rose garden and the happy ever after with lace and sugar and a ribbon on top without oh, I don't know... you not having to actually work for it at all? Which "they" walked up to you and said you had to trust them and they expected it from you? Mmm? Hell, I haven't even told Miles anything of the sort.

So some of you keep saying "they" lied to you. Some keep saying "they" as though it were some sort of curse word, but fact is, I don't know anyone called "They" here. And some of you keep acting as though you're being kept in jail.

I'm wondering here. Who?

First off, you little rat, if you really felt safer on the streets than you do here, I've got no illusions that you'd be back there in a second. Maybe the good food and the comfortable bed's made you soft, but you coming in here like you know something beyond a three-card-monte hustle and some sweet talking ain't gonna fly.

If someone wants to get you, boy - they'll get you. No matter where you are. Here, at least you've got folks who'll step up to take a shot for you and make sure you make it out alive. Out there, who do you have? And you'll say you don't got nobody, don't need nobody.

Bullshit. If that were the case, you wouldn't BE here. Somewhere along the line, you got noticed by someone because of what you are. There's folks who want to dissect you for it, some who'd conscript you for it, and some who'll just plain kill you for it.

No one's drafting anyone for a war here. You want to volunteer to go play with the deluded folks in the black leather with the expensive jet? Knock yourself out. But no one's forcing you to sign up with the damn militia. Don't recall anyone locking you in your room either.

You want to turn your nose up at what you're being given here, fine. Don't let the door hit you in the ass on your way back to the gutter.
