Action: Hospitality Deck
When: Now!

VIDEO

[ The video starts suddenly, with Caitlin sitting straight up, eyes open and wide with fear.

More than what's warranted with waking up in a strange place.

Her head bows, her eyes going directly to her wrists. It seems she's checking both of them, rubbing absently at them, as if she expected to find something. (Shackles or handcuffs, that's what she's looking for.) If she's reassured there's nothing there, she certainly doesn't look it. When she looks back up, her gaze sweeping around the room, she's trying to place where she is, what's happened. This isn't Barry's lab at CCPD, it isn't STAR Labs, and it definitely isn't Zoom's lair.

It's a few minutes before she looks right into the camera, her head tilting with curiosity. ] Hello?

[ Then the feed cuts out. ]

TEXT

[ The text follows about ten minutes later. ]

This is going to sound odd, but: whoever or whatever brought me here, thank you. I need to get back to Central City, though.

[ There's some sense in what he's saying. It's hard to put away that endlessly hopeless feeling that had filled her before, and it would certainly be a lot easier if Cisco was here and she could lean on him.

But it may be a while before she can do that. So she'll wipe her face with the back of her hand, try to focus beyond this. ]

Okay. I — okay.

Right. ok so the asshole atorma people will make you stay on the Marsiva for a few more days but then you'll be assigned to one of the crew and I'm going to come see you, ok?

[ trying to make her smile, he suggests ]

we can do each other's hair or something.

Okay. Yeah, someone else had mentioned more "freedom" once I'm off this ship. Freedom being a relative term.

[ His suggestion definitely gets a smile. It's small and fragile, but it's there. ]

How unfair is it that you've still got better hair than me?

Hey it is nice, right? Wish I could get it this soft in my guy-form.

[ ... ]

is it weird that we're having this conversation? maybe it's a bit weird.

Weird? Maybe. But probably not any weirder than arguing about how many bugs Barry [ her voice breaks over his name, but she keeps going. ] swallows in an average day.
