driftfleet | 001 - Video/Action

Who: Chloe Price and open!
Broadcast: Fleetwide, accidental
Action: For people on the Marsiva, if they like!
When: Right now! And on until shuffle

[There was a young woman with blue hair passed out on the floor of Marsiva. She looks maybe nineteen or twenty, her clothing seems to be a tad damp, and she shifting occasionally as if having a nightmare of some kind.]

-on't you forget about me..

[The words come out in a mumble against the floor, and maybe it's the way they sound in a spaceshiip that yanks her out of her sleep, but a second later her eyes flare open and she sits up in a shock.]

WAIT I- What? [Whatever she was expecting, the Marvisa was clearly not it, and after a quick, panicked look around, she scrambles to her feet.]

Okay, calm down. Maybe this a good thing. Okay. Okay [She is clearly talking to herself, with no idea anyone is watching. Trying to calm herself down, probably.] Still alive. What does that even...

[She finally seems to have noticed a nearby window and the void of space beyond it because she freezes, then immediately darts over to it, staring out for a long breath, one hand coming up to press against the glass, making sure it was there.]

...What the fuck. Am I in space?!

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Yeah, I guess so... [He says wit a sympathetic nod.]

At least there's a lot of worse places to be stuck than exploring outer space.

...Yeah. I know that song. Trust me.

Better here than before.

[She kind of says this last part to herself.]

[It's an awkward silence for a moment. Because he has some idea of her situation, even if he hasn't exactly made head or tails of it. But saving Chloe was the priority in that dream world and now-]

Yeah - we're safe here, at least. No real crazy dangers or anything. So, um, let's make the most of it!

Except for the whole space bit, right?

[Hmm.]

Do they have space suits? Can we go outside?

Right - there's still space itself. [He admits with a chuckle.] When you're here long enough, it feels like you're just going through a weird ocean.

But there's apacesuits alright! We get to go outside, just not very far. ...But where you are now? You're pretty much stuck there until the shuffle.

Till I get 'assigned,' right. [Ugh. Waiting.] I can four days. [She makes it sound like a prison sentence though.]

Then I get...what, randomly stuck on someone's shift? Any way to go to one I want?

Right!

Um... There are transfer forms you can use to go to the ship of your choice! I... just actually don't know if you can get those forms before your first shuffle.

Well I've got plenty of time to poke around and see if I can find them.

[She sighs.]

Why does Max have to be on such an artsy-fartsy named ship?

[That's more directed at the universe than at Kurt.]

Happy hunting?

Heh, maybe she's just drawn to the artsy-fartsiness.

[That...was actually exactly right.]

...She seriously is. She's a pretentious photographer.

[It wasn't too far of a leap, between her camera and her whole museum motif to her calibration room. Kurt softly chuckles.]

That would explain the camera!

[Chloe grins.]

Yeah. She basically never doesn't have it. I know she keeps it next to her bed at night to take morning selfies.

Ha! Really? ...Wait, what's a selfie? [That's one he's never heard before.]

You don't know what a selfie is?

[Okay. Even if he was from some weird world...]

How are you friends with Max?

No, for real! I mean, I think I can kind of guess at it. Me and Max, we haven't talked that much... I can't remember if she mentioned one before!

Uh. [So weird.]

You know, like when you take a picture of yourself?

Yeah!

...

...Is that it?

Yeah, that's it.

I mean, not when Max does it, she does all this crazy art shit that makes them look amazing.

[Which was to say, Max was just good at photography, but Chloe was willing to blame crazy art shit for it.]

I... You don't mean like with paint and stuff, right?

...Sounds pretty cool, though! I'll have to check out more of her work sometime.

No, like, with light and angles and...I don't know.

If I knew, I could do it right?

[She grins.]

So... She's just really good at taking pictures! That's still cool. That stuff takes practice!

Yeah. She was goin' to school for it and everything.

Bright future, I guess. If she weren't trapped in space.

Whoa, cool!

Well... She'll get back to it someday. I'm sure of it!

I guess. Is there a big audience for photography out here?

Um... There might be? I can't really tell.

But hey, outer space! Infinite possibilities and all.
