Completely ignoring the rape, there's something naive about this. Yah they're in prison, these people most probably have done something to be there, but room #2 gives off found family vibes??? I could be wrong since it's this early but aren't the dynamics between gray hair and long hair somehow cute? Big shy introverted guy under the protection of the most feared guy in the area. Fearless newcomer leads big shy guy, but both of them follow long hair's word.
Even in the dialogue and the way they speak there's something youthful and even warm(???) sometimes. Idk if I'm the weird one for interpreting it this way but I find it impressive the author got to pull that off despite such a brusque/harsh background of the story.
