I did not get near as far into this story as I thought. I've got a lot to post before I even get to write new stuff. Also, here's a thing to show time gaps, cause you guys would probably really appreciate that:

“Ben has decided upon a couple possible answers ta yar predicament.” Shammy announced later, as I sat gulping down a fast-cooling meal, made out of the meat that Captain Glubby had taken earlier.
“Fire away.” I muttered through the food.
“First, ya can go out and about, provided ya wear a leash.”
I choked on my fork, and had difficulty swallowing my bite.
“Next, he’s offered to build you a more comfortable housy to stick ya in forever.”
I spat out small chunk of meat. “Well that’s nice of him.” I said, sarcasm littering my words.
“And finally, he’s willing ta let ya out into da Galleries and let ya try yar hand with da girls, or ‘them.’” He paused. “Personally, I’d go with ‘them.’”
“Personally, your leader is junk.” I said.
“Well…we can’t exactly let ya run around the brickin’ place like this never happened.” Shamrock stood up and leaned on the wall, shivering a bit.
“Ya were willing to do that before I mentioned the Hulk.” I gave him my best bored/rethought-prompting stare.
“The Hulk changes everything.” He swiped his hands, clearing the air around him.
I decided the bold approach was my best way to get to the bottom of here. No more faking sanity. Actually, I was going to try that a bit. Sweets memories were now going to become mine. “Shammy…I know things that you’re going to need to know.”
“Let meh go grab a scroll.” He stood up.
I crossed my arms. “You’re only getting this stuff out on a couple conditions.”
“Oh, Ben’s gonna love this. Negotiations give him headaches.”

“Oh…I’ve got a headache!” Ben announced.
“We ain’t even started yet.” Shammy glared at him.
“Well, I do.” Ben frowned at his second-in-command. “You’re supposed ta be meh loyal sidekick!”
“Little Sham.Shamli…Shamiam Turner…” I recited off, grinning. I was going to enjoy this.
“What?”
Not speaking to you. My trial’s about to begin. This is darned inconvenient.
“I wanna know every word that comes out of their mouths.”
I groaned, then realized the entire room was staring at me. “Oh, hey, let’s get this started, bruh.”
“Bruh?” Ben paused shuffling needlessly through previously organized mostly-empty scrolls.
“Yeah, man.” Gangster mode on.
“Okay…” Ben stared at me oddly. I no longer cared if I was considered insane. It was fun, actually.
“That’s creepy.”
“So, ya have stuff ta tell us, but ya refuse ta cause…why boi?” Ben glared at me. He was wondering why I had to be so difficult. I was wondering if he had any hair under that hat.
“Bet he doesn’t, whoever he is.”
“Well, Ben my man, I’m sick of the Cooler.” I stepped out of my little box, and the gathering gasped. “And this is the only way I’m gettin’ out…feelin’ me?”
OOC: Trust fall that my previous part isn't going to be rejected...I really wanted to finish out this scene.
“Well, there’s always the leash…” Ben glanced at me, then at the defendant circle, then back at me. “Uh…could you step backwards twice?”
“Yeah, I could. Not gonna.” I took another step forward. “Ben, you think this place is bad, eh?”
“Yeah.” He said, keeping a careful eye on my feet. He was clutching his hammer like a weapon.
“Well, things are gonna get lots worse, dig me?”
He just blinked.
“The monsters…that was just a foretaste.” I turned to face the gathered users. “No longer will we be safe during the day, maybe not even during the night!” I kept going in my circle, meeting ever user’s eyes in turn. “We were sent here because we were rebels. We tried to escape to here. They were glad to see us go, our oppressors, but first they stole our memories. But one among us didn’t ever lose theirs.”
Everybody turned to look at their neighbor.
“Well, who?” Ben leaned forward.
I stepped up on the gild edge of his podium, and leaned in close to him. I grinned wide. “Her name is Sweets.”

*Does a happy little jig* I'm bad at expressing my joy in words, so instead I'll just hand you a pie.
