Yes, I do see why you'd think that. A tempting trap so many inmate overthinkers fall into. It's only the impulsive ones who get out lickety-split after realizing they hate the consequences of what they just did and they never even want to do it again. Anyone calculating enough to see the pattern is a little more inured against change. Observer effects, etc.
It has got you started on your path, I imagine, actually putting some of what you're capable of on the table. Pardon the pun. But if I were a gambling man I'd give you at least another year.

I wasn't told the details of your punishment, but you're quite right that she wouldn't be fazed by the physical pain of your experience. Unfortunately, I don't control John's reaction. I do think my disappointment will matter to her as well, albeit to a lesser degree. Would you say that what you want is a consequence that gets a reaction from her?
