forty-third 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: As you emerge from the grav couches following the jump, the chill of the medical bay pales in comparison to the hollow feeling that settles deep within your chest. Grim and foreboding, the grip of isolation spreads through you like a gnawing void, as though you've been left behind. That nagging sensation of neglect that comes from someone turning their back on you only worsens as you move through your routines, leaving you feeling distant, disoriented, and unwanted.
New arrivals will find messages spray-painted in red across their lockers telling them not to follow their tattoo numbers, and instead to find a room on Floors 001-010.

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.

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.

Did someone- Someone else from these pod things write it there?

[Fewer every jump]
The numbers on the tattoos mean we add an extra deck every jump. And that leaves us all too spread out to protect properly.
no subject
Oh... I guess that makes sense.
Isn't there some kind of security force or whatever? From whoever's in charge of this place? [That's how it works on TV, anyway. And really, that's Hiro's only frame of reference.]

[Because it's important]

So I guess everyone here has one, huh?
no subject
[And this seems like a moment for introductions, since he should clear one thing up]
I'm Bail Organa. I'm with the Communications department.
no subject
Oh- Uh, I'm Hiro Hamada.
no subject
I'm afraid this isn't the safest of places. But we manage.
[What choice do they have?]
no subject
... You said you're with the Communications department, right? Does everyone here have some kind of job?
no subject
no subject
Okay... So what does Communications do?
no subject
[Okay and some monitoring and compilation of databases]
no subject
Wait a minute. You've actually had external contact? With what?

And those DUPR guys didn't really help clear anything up at all, huh? Are they still around?
