"I'm not luring you anywhere," Rook repeats, voice almost gentle. "You can stay right there if you want. I'll stay right here. I can't reach you from here, see?"

He gestures (slowly) to the inmates around them, none of which are paying them any mind, beyond maybe mild disinterest. "I've been here all of a couple weeks, I don't have any 'ilk'. I also don't know who you are, or have any reason to want to get rid of you. If I did, I would've let the guards do it. I just wanted you to get away from the fence so you didn't end up in the SHU or worse."
