twentieth 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 



Yͨ̉̈́͏̮͙́ͅơ̻̞̤̺͕̬͙̯͐̒͆̚͘ͅu̵̪͕̼̣̙͙ͮ̆͊̓̿͌͢ 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 ã̖͉̱̟̞͓̜̠l͚̼̹̟͎̙̘͍ͮ̅ȯ̧͆ͯ́ͦ͏̦̱̥n̛̹̖ͫͪͥͯe͛͌ͫͦ̒ͣ͂̕҉̠̯..


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 y͏̵͟o̡͘͡u̶̧͘͟r̨̀́̕ welcome party.

I have read of you in history books. And there are others even further ahead of me.
ridesthesun: (Leaning forward)

History books? And...further ahead? How much further?

Millenia. And Solo and Luke are decades still.

[Which... not as huge a difference, but it was an eventful period]
ridesthesun: (Warning you)

Millenia.

Can you prove this, Senator?

[She doesn't feel a lie, but...]

Unfortunately, I have no documentation available.

[This was easier when there was the "you should look older/younger" factor at play]

If I recall, House Panteer was on the throne of Alderaan in your time.
ridesthesun: (Haughty)

[personal profile] ridesthesun 2013-06-20 05:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes...they are.

[She shakes her head, perplexed]

Forgive me, I don't...think you're lying it's just a lot to take in.

My house has ruled for centuries in my time.

[One little succession crisis a couple decades ago aside...]

It gets very overwhelming. I don't think any two of us are from the same time.
ridesthesun: (Headtilt)

[personal profile] ridesthesun 2013-06-21 07:18 am (UTC)(link)
I imagine that makes gatherings a little confusing then, keeping it all straight.

To put it mildly.

[He's still not sure what to even call Luke.]
ridesthesun: (Looking away)

[personal profile] ridesthesun 2013-06-24 10:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Well Senator Organa, is there a protocol or procedure I need to be observing, as a new...arrival?
bailedontheempire: (Default)

[personal profile] bailedontheempire 2013-06-28 03:29 am (UTC)(link)
You'll find a cabin with the number from your tattoo. But no specific procedures once you've retrieved the effects from your locker.
ridesthesun: (Hmmm)

[personal profile] ridesthesun 2013-06-30 06:41 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you. I...suppose I should take care of that then. Thank you Senator. I'm certain I'll speak to you again soon.
