[In the time since he was released from Zero, Scorpius has been spending the majority of his days in the library. The availability of knowledge from other universes is too irresistable to ignore, and much of his time is spent cataloging facts and figures he feels may be useful to him in the coming time]
The enormous accessibility of resources even to known prisoners on this ship continues to amaze me. I wonder if I might entreat on a warden who would be able to provide a personal databank? It's far easier than writing notes by hand.
Additionally, I would be interested to learn if anyone has bothered to map out the Barge's destinations ahead of schedule, or started to plan for each flood and port we encounter. It seems to be on a rotating cycle.
And there are still concepts I come across every day whose meanings continue to elude me. I have seen...[He pauses to double-check the name he's written down] Abbott and Costello's 'Who's on First' three times and each subsequent viewing leaves me more perplexed.
John, if this data reel is any indication of your species' intelligence, I don't know whether to feel superior or afraid.

Have you tracked Crichton's meal cycles yet?

But know that if I don't get that knowledge from you eventually, I will leave the Peacekeepers to their war and make my way towards Earth.

[He fakes a confident tone because on the inside he's trying not to shudder at the thought.]

[Shit.]
Well, maybe you aught to check out a book on contemporary ethics while you're over there.

But the library is quite large and I have a significant amount of reading to catch up on. I must be very careful about how I divide my time, lest I become distracted from my original goal.
Re: [Video / Locked]
Why don't you take up something exiting like knitting or needlepoint?

Seriously, Crichton? Seriously?
At last:]
...No. I think not. But thank you for the suggestion.

[He tsks.]
How about Origami?
[He's not going to stop, just so you know.]

When you're ready to speak more seriously about the only important thing that concerns both of us, I will contact you again.
