[ The video feed clicks on as Ororo wakes, with the sound of her cape's wrist bangles clattering against whatever assorted metal fixtures there are on the bed as she gets to her feet. It's quiet aside from the background noise of the Hospitality Deck, with Ororo silently assessing the situation she'd found herself in. Was it a kidnapping? She could see the void of stars and space through the large window - had she been pulled into another intergalactic issue? Ororo frowned, the sparks of lightning crawling along her skin making the video feed flicker with static. ]

[ Assuming that there were other X-Men with her here somewhere (nine times out of ten they were pulled into these things together), she decided to go looking for them and regroup... or at least find someone on the Deck to question. She takes the communicator with her just because it looked useful, but neglects to switch it off or anything - so between brief moments of static from her lightning, it happens to pick up her movement and voice as she mutters to herself: ]

By the Goddess, I do not have time for this. I have a school to run!

[ there is literally nothing better for Chara to do at the moment, stuck on the Marsiva the way they are, monitored for whoever is watching to see. there's no way they can hunt out any weapons to replace their confiscated knife with eyes on them, because there's no way to make it not look suspcious for a ten-year-old to be gathering sharp implements.

they may have to play the normal, friendly child card for now, but at least without anyone else from their world here, they don't have to act like Frisk anymore.

so! they actually pay Storm some attention when she marches out onto the deck, peering over curiously from a seat they've taken to watch outside as the ship moves. ]

Did you just wake up here?

[Ororo stops short at the sound of such a young voice.]

I did just wake up, yes. [They're so calm about this too. How odd.] And you? [They didn't seem to look like they were behind all this, so as much as looking to a child for answers might be... strange, it was better than nothing.]

I woke up here yesterday. [ they're still in the pajamas they had been wearing when they'd been taken, even. ] I think there's a couple other people too.

[She looks around, there are a few others around the deck, but most were keeping to themselves.]

It seems like it, yes. But - you're alone?

Here, yeah. Apparently, I was here before so there's some people that know me off the Marsiva, but there's no one I actually know from home.

[The strangeness of that entire sentence aside... Ororo frowns in concern for a moment. Then she offers the child a small smile.]

That sounds rather lonely. Would you like some company? I just woke up here myself.
