forty-fourth 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: Awareness comes to you slowly in the smothering quiet of the blue fluid. In the light piercing through from the medical bay you realise there's a shadow, a figure stood at the glass of your gravcouch, a hand pressed to the surface just above your face. Fear spikes through your gut as waves of alien sensation crash into your mind, a rage that feels endless, all-consuming, furious, molten hatred that you know is for you.
When the fluid drains, door sliding open to deposit you on the medbay floor, you remember it. Remember it coming again and again, like a nightmare that plagued your sleep over and over, leaving you with no respite, no rest. Days. Perhaps even longer.
You remember that the light coming through from behind the shadow was red.
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.
----------------
YOU͘ ̨WAKE̢ ̧UP ́IN DA̛RKN̢E̕SS̶
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.
YÓU̴ ̧ĄRE NOT҉ ̷ALǪNE҉
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.

Lockers
He'd skipped the showers, choosing instead to use his powers to blast off most of the goo (some of it still stuck in his hair, but he'd deal with that later).
For now, he'd changed into his own clothes after some trial and error with the lockers and was trying to determine whether to simply leave or try to be less obviously out of place.
He chose the latter, sidling up to Ward at random. He crossed his arms over his chest, glancing sideways at the other man and quirking one eyebrow. "If this isn't the most inane excuse for a prison, I don't know what~ is."
It was a guess. Fates only knew what this place actually was. But waking up naked? Usually a bad sign unless there had been a women involved.
no subject
"You think it's a prison?" It seems a valid line of thinking, but he hasn't seen any guards - no one to offer structure. It seems a self-reliant system that just depends on the fact that you can't go anywhere. Even the blond wandering around to try and emphasize the importance of staying to the lower decks has damp hair. She was in the tubes, too.
no subject
"What do you think it is, mm?"
He wasn't exactly in a popular line of work. Personally, Ailanne was surprised to wake up in a prison rather than winding up dead. But he didn't expect anything better than a prison.
no subject
"This is only one part of this place," he assumes. There has to be more - especially with the number of people milling aorund.
no subject
Before his irritation can build too much more, he jerks his chin toward the area he's seen a few people vanish towards and not return from. While it might not be an actual exit, it has to lead somewhere else. The only way to find out where was to either:
a) grab some Fates damned idiot and force the information out of him with the point of a knife (or at the very least the heavy implication that there will be a knife if he doesn't talk faster) and the promise of a ton of misery if he doesn't cooperate
or
b) just follow the crowd and see what was waiting.
"I don't know what your plan is, but personally, I'm going to see just how much leash we've got."
It's not exactly an invitation or a goodbye, so whatever Ward decides to do, Ai shrugs and starts that way.
no subject
"Have fun with that," he replies. He's not planning on taking any group tours just yet.
