[Anyone who knows Jimmy at all might have noticed that he's been unusually absent from the Network lately. Ignoring new arrivals, and only talking to people sparingly- and it's always, always via text. In fact, Jimmy hasn't made a video post to the Network himself in several months, and it seems like that hasn't changed.

It's jarringly unusual behavior, but the sudden message that pops up on the Network this afternoon might be the most surprising thing of all, even moreso than the radio silence. No attempts at filtering, either.]

What do you think 'Hell' is?

Im really glad you think so.
I dont think Miseryville is a bad place, either.
No matter what people say, it never will be.

It certainly has an odd name. But home is home. That's what's important.

You're right. You really are.
I dunno why I ever let myself be convinced of anything different.

Sometimes we start to question things. But you'll be fine.

Miseryville is a strange name for a place, but one day I'm certain you'll get that ruler to come around. Or find someone better than him.

Well, my best friend is his son. One of these days, he'll take over as the ruler.
Maybe he'll end up changing things for the better. I dunno.

The new generation deciding to forgo the rules of the old? I like that.

I'm sure your friend will listen to you when it comes time.

[One can only hope, since it's common knowledge that Beezy running Miseryville as it stands would be far worse than even the worst Lucius can come up with, simply for the fact that Beezy would be content to do absolutely nothing at all.]

I think he will! He'll probably be able to change things if he really wanted, I think.

[Which he...doesn't...BUT OH WELL that bridge will likely never be crossed but Jimmy doesn't care right now.]

Maybe if I'm lucky, though, he'll show up here before all that. I think he'd like this place a lot.

[Well, hopefully Beezy matures or something so a crisis like that is adverted!]

Here's to hoping he does want to change it.
