PODS | (open to any adult character who looks even remotely calm rn)
McCoy hits the ground hard, falling to his hands and knees, and for a moment he's so shocked he can't even breathe. He chokes on air, trying to gasp, then he coughs weakly, then explosively until the choking feeling eases. Catching movement in the corner of his eye he rears back until he's pressed up against what feels like a wall, heart pounding.
It takes a moment for his vision to clear, for the shapes to solidify into humanoids in much the same shape as he is. Queasily he fumbles for his communicator and that's when McCoy realizes he's naked.
It's like first year of undergrad all over again, he thinks, slightly hysterically.
The people he sees vary, some like him, with shocky expressions and unsure of what to do. Others are calmly going about their business as if this whole 'surprise! you've been kidnapped and stripped naked by aliens!' thing is an old hat to them.
"Hey," his voice is roughened from the tube that'd been stuck down his trachea, god damn it, "Hey!" McCoy barks out more forcefully, snagging the arm of someone nearby who looks way too calm, "What in the hell is this place? What in god's name is going on?"
[ I hope the grabbing is ok, I can change it if it's not! ]
LOCKERS | OTA
He stares into his locker. Of all the god damned ridiculous things in the universe-
"Well, thank god." he drawls, as he pulls out a familiar pair of black briefs, "I can rest easy now that I have my damn underwear."
