eighteenth 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.

[He seems happy enough to hear that; his smile spreads a bit across his face. You'd think the kid just learned Santa would be around this year for once. Oh, did you have something to do, or anything? Because this kid's just standing here looking mystified by his possible future chin fuzz.]

Cool...

Beards are cool.

[ It warms the depths of Bones' soul to see that, honestly, and it takes him a moment to just take it in because damn if the wonder on a little kid isn't one of his favorite things to see. But then he snaps out of it and remembers, right friends, find them. ]

They really are. Listen kid, as much as I wanna stay and talk, I've gotta go find a friend or two of mine. You got someone here you can go to? If you do. Just go to them right now. Because I've got to hurry up and find him before he does something stupid. If he's here.

[ OH RIGHT. ]

Who're you finding? I'll tell you if I see them!

[Because I might as well be helpful if I do, right.]

[ Right. ]

A guy named Jim? Kirk. He's a captain, even if he acts more like a kid most of the time.

[Oh!! He beams a little.]

I think I see him on the net, sometimes! I never talked with him, though.

But he talks on it.

I think you'll find him here. I bet!
