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.

Thats ok!
[He gestures to his arm, which has a 006 etched on it.]
But I'm damn sure you're newer than me.
[It might be a bit of posturing, frankly. Alex is never the best with first impressions, especially when it comes to girls.]
no subject
Just don't confuse that with lack of experience.
[ all teresa has ever known has been mazes and prisons and mysteries involving your captors. thankfully, the strange comfort she feels in the air doesn't send her into a frenzy talking about it.
she closes her locker, leaning her shoulder against it to look at him directly. ]
So, has anything changed since you got here?
no subject
[He shrugs, looking over at her. She's pretty, but there is a toughness there. Reminds him a bit of Raven, in some ways.]
Yeah. It's--
--complicated. We keep getting pieces of the puzzle. But none of them really help us with the bigger picture. Or really say we're going towards anything good.
no subject
[ she smiles a little, lips just turned up at the corner. the feelings of familiarity are mutual, and it's probably why she's so keen to find out what he knows. ]
So, not much. I guess we'll have to keep gathering them. There has to be a pattern somewhere. [ she pauses in her thoughts to hold her hand out. it wouldn't hurt to have more friends here. ] I'm Teresa by the way.
no subject
[Alex runs a hand through his hair, letting out a frustrated sigh.]
You don't want to hear about my theories.
[They make him sound crazy. And it means he usually has to think about all the memories that got jumbled into his head, memories not his own, the horrible things that happened to the people who were here, in the past.
But oh--her hand is out. He takes it, giving it a quick squeeze.]
Alex Summers. Sometimes go by Havok. But--uh--Alex is fine.
no subject
No. I mean, yes, I want to hear them.
[ there's an eagerness and genuine curiosity in her eyes. teresa has her own theories, many of them not doing too well, and she knows this isn't a mystery she can solve by herself. anything could help — any kind of trigger. ]
no subject
[Alex has to put a hand up; she's making him nervous. He has good control of his powers, but the existence of them, the way he gives off a higher ambient temperature--all of that makes him really nervous when people he doesn't know get really up in his business.]
Were you around for the dreams? The dreams that weren't our own?
