thirty-first jump;
CHARACTERS: Any and all.
LOCATION: Gravity Couches and beyond.
WARNINGS: Maybe some swearing, or even some violence, and more than likely some implied (and possibly explicit) nakedness.
SUMMARY: Another month, another jump, another round of new faces.
NOTES: There is something very easy about waking from the gravcouches this month. The sensation of being watched is absent, and so is much of the sickness - even for those characters who entered Engineering in February. Instead the jump feels comfortable, the stasis fluid warm on your skin, the medbay lights not too harsh as you emerge amongst your fellow passengers. The sensation may be unnerving in its strangeness, but there will be a deep feeling of being well-rested, calm and content, that will not be completely lost no matter how much you question it.
----------------
You wake up in darkness.
There's a breathing tube jammed down your trachea, and you're suspended in a tube of clear blue fluid. Upon registering your level of consciousness, the gravity couch drains the fluid surrounding you and retracts the breathing apparatus; the doors in front of you open, and you're deposited on the floor of a stark, sterile medical bay.
You are not alone.
There are others who have come before you, others who are awakening beside you. Some may be familiar to you, perhaps even friends. Others have much less amiable plans. Some are merely alien and inexplicable, but there are always those who might mean you harm.
After you catch your breath and your vision returns, you notice a number on the inside of your forearm. Maybe it's a familiar number. Maybe it means something. Maybe it's just a number. But the number—completely unique to you—is a tattoo, and it does not come off.
If you enter the room adjacent to the medbay, you will find a small locker with your number on it, surrounded by rows upon rows of identical lockers. Inside, you will find a few of your personal items, a communications device, and a ship's uniform in your exact size. The comms device is fully powered and connects directly to the ship's network; it's your only means of communication beyond physical conversation. Upon turning the device on, a neutral, automated voice will say, "Please take the blue lift to the passenger quarters." Any other attempts at communicating with the rest of the network are met only with static.
This is your welcome party.

i've done that way too many times
She stands up now though, slipping her purse strap up over her shoulder. "So I'm going to I guess figure out where I'm supposed to stay," she says. "Y'know, assuming there's a bed and not just another jello pod."
But before she goes... "I'm Sally, by the way." Not that he even cares. She just... kind of wants to know who he is so she can check up on him later. And, y'know, make sure this face-breaking isn't a regular thing.
high five
"They are functional," he says of the rooms in the passenger quarters. Functional is not pleasant or luxurious, but miles better than goo-filled pods. After a beat: "Severus." ... Is his name. It's a weird name, yes.
He taps the number on his locker. If he has a number on his arm, it's covered up. "These are like phone numbers," he says, "on your communication device." Which is not an invitation to call him, but it's the only helpful bit of advice he can think of that's not 'By the way don't go wandering you might literally lose your mind and/or be eaten by manticores', so.

Severus. It's... different. Not so great. Better than something stupid like Danny, though. Maybe she's just biased.
His 'phone number' comment has her looking at her own arm again, running over her number again in her head. "Got it," she says, offering a grateful smile. "Thanks. I mean, for humoring me when, let's face it, you'd proooobably rather be putting your face back together."
no subject
He just nods after, simultaneous permissive and understanding. It's fine, and-- well, she's a good sport for rolling with his attitude, even if he almost never factors that into how he mentally scores people. He thinks he'll go find a mirror and play damage control before he leaves the medbay, probably. Enough people have seen this already.
