Story time, boys and girls. [ said in a sarcastic tone of voice, as Dorian leans back in a chair. He's filming this from his apartment in Maurtia Falls—the wall behind him is completely blank, no pictures and no mirrors. Physically, he looks fine (doesn't he always?), though his hair's a bit of a mess and there's just something in Dorian's eyes that screams "I am so fucking done with this." ]
Since arriving here over a year ago, I've been attacked, immolated, had my hand bitten off, coerced to jump off a building, beaten up, manipulated into hallucinating people from home, immolated again, and beaten up again—all of this from different people. A few days ago, I was gassed and then someone attempted to blind me by slicing my eyes open with a knife. [ said all too casually, as if he's talking about the weather. ] The funny thing is? All these incidents were caused by different people.
Add in me, who killed someone while hallucinating, and what's our common thread? We're all ticking time bombs, just waiting for somebody to flip the switch and watch us go off. I'm starting to think that the Porter picks people less for who would make a good hero and more of who would make a good weapon. [ He makes a finger gun and points it at the screen. Thankfully, Dorian's a bit too dignified to make a 'pew' noise as he mimics firing said finger gun. ] Just point and click, while the potentially psychotic people with potentially lethal superpowers get rid of your problems.
And before you point out that some people were possessed by the Hornets when they beat me up or made me jump of a roof, I know... [ and there's a pause, while he counts on his hands, ] four people who definitely killed someone back home, myself not included, and at least five people who it really wouldn't surprise me if they did. Probably more—I really need to make some less trigger-happy friends. Considering there's about two hundred of us tops, that's still a worrying amount.
[ He fixes the camera with a lovely little tense smile. ] Food for thought. [ there's a pause, as Dorian thinks things over. Is he missing anything? ] Oh! New people, hullo there, my name's Dorian Gray and yes, the swear-ins are usually this terrible, though this one was particularly nasty. Anybody know who caused it?

["A prison isn't a business, Wells" it sort of is.]

We have the capability to deal with these threats better than them. We only don't do it because we rely on this entity that can't do much for us.

[Yeah, he's not going to deny that for a second.]
However, I think a good enough cause can bring about the inspiration needed. Crane isn't going to be the last to pull something like this. I've only been here for a couple months and I can bet he wasn't even the first, right?

[Not even in regards to outright murder, but really making sure that person is never a substantial threat to the public again. Of course it's not entirely his business when he isn't on the side of the righteous, or their enemies.]
I do hope the imPort prison does come back into fashion one day. I do honestly find it a stronger option, even if frowned upon.
[Take it from a guy who illegally held meta-human prisoners in his lab - sometimes these things are just necessary evils.]

[ cause yeah, Dorian does NOT LIKE THE IDEA of going back to prison. ]
