thirty-fifth 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: You wake feeling cold and alone. There is a strange sense of emptiness, and the jump holds no surprises for you. There is nothing buffering the jump sickness and disorientation for you this month, and those still suffering the lingering effects of August's plot may find it more difficult than usual to get through the post-jump routine.
New arrivals will find messages spraypainted across their lockers telling them not to follow their tattoo numbers, and instead to find a room on Floors 001-010.
----------------
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.

And then there's the last bit. Treatment is familiar, something he thinks about and talks about every day, but the context isn't quite right. He ignores the urge to look back towards his locker and the kit tucked safely away there, gaze steadier on her as he tries to work out what she means. ]
No, I'm treated. I mean I've been treated— sorry, you said everyone got sick?
[ Still polite, but the confused edge gives more strength to his voice. ]
no subject
[The towel around her body is secure; she adjusts and tucks it anyway, a little physical reassurance where there's none to be found mentally.]
Listen, are you quite sure you're alright? They're under a lot less strain now, there's no need to hold off getting help. You look half dead.
no subject
It's all completely familiar, just one step off. The situation's so bizarre that when she says he looks half dead he actually laughs, one short, clipped scoff of amusement.
But this isn't funny. She clearly assumes he has what everyone else had, and while correcting her is probably the polite thing to do— ] Yeah, you know what, you're absolutely right. I'll just... get my things up to my room, then be right back down for a check-up.
[ This can't possibly backfire later, right. ]
