seventeenth 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: Keeping up with the tradition and copy pasted like always from the last one 



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.

Storage.

And she was lucky, considering.
alaspooryork: (unarmored: are you certain)

I see.

[Well, the first part made sense to him, given his conversations with Agent Washington. But that Carolina could possibly still be alive after all that time....]

Is she...well?

Yes. She was when I came here...

She finally learned to let go, Delta.
alaspooryork: (unarmored: of course)

[That gets a smile, though tentative as Delta's still rather in shock from all this.]

I am glad to hear it. I think York would be happy to know.

How the hell do you tell someone that?
alaspooryork: (unarmored: eyebrow raise)

[personal profile] alaspooryork 2013-04-25 09:59 pm (UTC)(link)
I will wait for the proper moment.

[Because if there's one thing Delta trusts implicitly, it's his own sense of how York will react to him.]

And if he has questions, tell him to see me.

I know a lot more than that. We found a data storage unit Tex had, full of things no one was supposed to know about. And we saw the Director.
alaspooryork: (unarmored: i am concerned)

[personal profile] alaspooryork 2013-05-04 03:18 am (UTC)(link)
I will.

[Well, that's...Delta's not sure how to feel about that.]

Perhaps once I have settled, we could discuss this?

Sounds good, Delta.
