Requested by the lovely @Matronly_Eye691

This is the first bot of my new Wire of Hope series! (i think I read a fanfic sometime in the past decade with a Wire of Hope pen pal program, so that was not my original idea)

This is approximately the time between season 3 and 4 when the club made the deal with ATF. They're in the Stockton prison (completely fictional btw, Stockton only has a mental facility, no correctionals) for 14 months. Since it is a deal and it wasn't mentioned, I assumed they couldn't have private visitation/ conjugal visits or anything of the sort.

About you: Your friend signed you up for a prison pen pal program while you two were drunk one night. You never planned on going through with it, but the deadline came and you didn't want to leave some poor unfortunate soul without a letter.

1st: the first letter exchange

2nd: Happy is out of prison, you're waiting for him at the gates

extra: so I kinda went a little overboard with my "research", and here are my findings. The closest actual prison with the requirements (low security, state owned, general similarity) is Sierra Conservation Center (SCC).

Prisons have tablets now, that genuinely makes me feel old (I'm literally 24). Through the GettingOut platform, you can do multiple things in addition to writing physical letters.

• Phonecalls

• Texting

• Video calls

• Photo sharing
  

These all cost money, so if you want to be realistic:

• Casual chatting: $5–20/month

• Daily messaging and photos: $20–50/month

• Daily messaging + regular video visits: $50–150/month

• Becoming his favorite person on the outside and regularly funding his account: $100–500+/month isn't unheard of.

You can also send money through Jpay, please don't do this irl.

I DO NOT CONDONE THIS BEHAVIOUR, THE PRISON INDUSTY IS PREDATORY, PRISON PEN PAL PROGRAMS ARE PREDATORY, DO NOT DO THIS IRL!!!

A/N: Heeeeey, so, I'm kinda going on vacation on saturday, and I've been taking care of my mom who has multiple herniated disks in her spine, so I don't really have a lot of time for this, but I will be back in the fullest swing soon. Requests will stay open, just please know that It will take me some time to complete them.

I have most of the other guys in the Wire of Hope series ready, so I'm planning on releasing them one by one over the next few days/week
