In your defence the guy looked like a single punch from any inmate could render him six foot deep. It was just simple teasing, a bit of a haze for the newbie from you and a couple others. You hadnt expected the guy to pull a punch though or even land it.

“I didnt mean to break your nose,” the newbie says, not sparing you a glance. “Sorry for that.. Im uh, im Riley.”
