driftfleet | Video + Marsiva

Who: Kitty Pryde
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Marsiva, hospitality deck
When: Current

[It starts recording without her realizing it. She's exploring her new surroundings cautiously. She places a hand on one of the cots and then pushes it through as if the cot weren't there at all. She removes her arm and both it and the cot are unharmed. Just testing her powers, don't mind her. She got worried when she realized her claws were missing.

Then she gets a better look at her communicator. It's a different model than she's used to.]

Is this another prison?

[It wouldn't be the first time the AIs sent them to a new facility. A space prison is as fitting as anything else, but there's usually some kind of message about it. This feels different.]

Is anyone from the Defense Force around? [Pause.] Or the X-Men. [She couldn't really be home though could she? In space?] Or anyone. Preferably someone with a light. [She can't find her lighter, but she still has a pack of cigarettes on her.]

(OOC: So, the coloring they used in AoA often makes her hair look reddish or blond, but I doubt the post-apocalyptic reality was really where she was going to start dying it. If you have known a Kitty Pryde, please just assume she looks like her—possibly younger or older. Shorter hair though. <3)

I'm a friend of Rogue's.

I'll count that as good. I am too. A version of her anyway. What's your name, friend-of-Rogue's?

James Barnes. Pleasure to meet you, miss.

Kitty Pryde. I guess I could have introduced myself. It's been a long time since I was doing one of these.

Where are you from, Miss Pryde?

Not sure which answer to give to that anymore. Chicago. [Suburb, please.] Earth. Most recently an underwater, intergalactic, multi-dimensional prison. You?

Brooklyn, New York.

What was this prison called, if you don't mind my asking? We have a few experienced multiverse travellers around.

[She perks up a little at that.] MarinaNova Asylum. Have you heard of anyone else being from there? [Because as much as she's trying to take it all in and as good as it is to see some other mutants again she's worried about her people. She'd grown pretty protective of them and close.]

No, sorry, first time I've heard of it.

[It's like the hope just dissolved right out of the air!] Of course. {Sighing.]

Are you a mutant, James Barnes of Brooklyn, New York?

[ He almost snorts. ]

No, miss. We don't have them in our world — well we don't call them mutants.

What do you call them? [Tread carefully.]

Enhanced individuals.

Oh. Sounds better actually. Kind of sounds like it was on purpose though. That's usually a very bad thing where I come from. [Thinking of the horror show that is the Beast's lab.]

I've heard. I'm sorry.

For what it's worth, there's nothin' like that here.

What is here? [She got so caught up in other X-Men she sort of let the mission slide. Learning everything she can.]

A very varied population, who are used to people with powers.

What about our captors?

The Atroma? We honestly don't know much about them.

Not even a mission statement? My last captors at least had a party line for us even if there was probably more to it.

How about escape? Is anyone working on that?

There's the reality show part, but between you and me, there's nothing dramatic going on here.

As for escape, working on it, not getting anywhere.

Are people working on it individually or as a team? [Because that would be a team she'd want to be on even if the last one only got her here.]

Individually. You can always assemble a team.

[Don't tempt her. Actually, she doesn't need much tempting. She's pretty team-oriented. Even if it doesn't help get them out it's kind of replaced the concept of family for her.]

Just like prison. [Actually, she was the third leader of the force, but she'd been about to start it when Gino beat her to the punch.]

You can be my first recruit. Call me something appropriately powerful and official. [Not entirely serious. She is still getting her feel for the place.]

Aye aye, captain.
