Who: Misty Day
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Marsiva
When: January 5

[A woman wearing all black lies face up in her bunk, perfectly still, her arms straight out by her sides. It's impossible to tell if she's breathing or not, but surely she must be, right?

Right?

Watch long enough and you'll see her come alive, shooting straight up with a gasp that becomes a heart-wrenching sob. Tears stream down her face and she rocks back and forth. She's saying something over and over, but the only word that can be heard clearly is "No, no, no." This goes on for a long minute before she really seems to realize where she is.

Or rather, where she is not.]


Cordelia?!

[She scrambles out of the bed and stands in the middle of the room, calling out in her thick Louisiana accent.]

Zoe? .... Myrtle?

[She sinks back on to the bed, clutching her head in her hands, her breathing becoming increasingly labored as she tries to fight the panic.]

Shit, shit, shit. Oh God, please, help me. This ain't right at all.

[Not knowing what else to do, she assumes her prior position, closes her eyes, and starts to chant. Those from Earth might recognize it as Latin.]

Spiritu duce, in me est. [Deep breath.] Spiritu... duce. Spiritu - [Another sob and she rolls over on her side and curls into a fetal position.] No, no. I can't... I can't go back there.

[He nods, smiling warmly.]

Stop by any time. I'm sure everyone else on the ship would be glad to meet you as well.

I think they are. My cousin Nanako is on the ship, too - she likes everyone.

Sometimes, yes.

[There's a slight strain evident on his smile. Nanako isn't exactly from the same world as Souji; his Nanako died, and this one didn't.]

I don't think there's really any sort of pattern to who shows up here, though.

[There are a few Souji could do without having to see again, too. Namatame, for example.]

Then I hope you don't have to see them here. And you can change ships, too, if you don't like the crew you're assigned. But I hope you get along with everyone.
