[001 🐚 Action]

Who: Jeyne and YOU
Broadcast: N/A
Action: SS Golden; SS Blue Fish
When: Oct 23

It hadn't been a great surprise when Jeyne had appeared suddenly on the Golden. For all of her intentions of begging to be at her husband's side, she inwardly knew that she would be placed elsewhere. For the few days she had spent on the Marsiva, as well as the brief conversations she had on her strange device, she had slowly become aware of how these Atroma intended to play. Nothing was about her comfort, it was about this show that they had brought her here for.

For her sanity, and for Robb's sake, she would need to make the best of this situation and allow herself to be moved around as a pawn once more.

She had at least been given a room of her own. For the first few days, she had wandered the ship, acquainting herself with her surroundings, but only when she wasn't with her husband. Traveling between the Golden and the Blue Fish was becoming a routine for her. While she wanted to remain with Robb, she had duties to attend to and couldn't neglect her own crew.

So mornings and evenings, she would travel between the ships, slowly become familiar with the faces she passed (even if she didn't know all of their names.)

Stepping through the sealed doors, Jeyne rested for a moment, catching her breath and regaining her composure. No matter how often she passed people or walked the distance between her ship and the Blue Fish, she still managed to become disoriented and drained.

Hearing another's approach, she forced herself back into composure, bringing a smile once more to her features. "Good day," she said, turning to greet the person that had interrupted her solitude. "Am I in your way?"

"You think it's overwhelming now," Espio said, shaking his head. "Just wait. And be glad you're not where I last was."

He folded his arms, leaning against the nearest wall. Now he'd found someone to grumble at, he could put off wandering the hallways for a short while. It wasn't as if he currently had anything better to do.

"You're part of our crew, aren't you? Name?"

"You don't wanna know," he answered, flatly. Being stuck in a post-apocalyptic wasteland where one had to have sex to stay real was not something to be discussed in normal, casual conversation. He offered a shrug.

"Espio the Chameleon. Pilot."

"'bout a month," Espio answered, with another shrug. "It's not terrible. There's food, for one thing. Weird, artificial food, but it's a step up I guess. Plus, it saves me from going bug hunting."

There were huge problems with this place that he could see - outright kidnap being the first, and every move you make being watched by someone being the second - but it was definitely a step up from the last year and a half.

"Just pretend you're not being watched all the time."

He was very serious. Despite his now mostly-human appearance, he was still a lizard, and bugs could be tasty. He never got anyone else to join him, though.

"I don't know," he answered, honestly. Monty had told him that the bathrooms and bedrooms were private, but he heard that from Renart and who knew where Renart had heard that? He wanted to believe it, but he just didn't know. "That kind of thing'd never make it onto mainstream TV where I'm from, but... aliens."

Oh, she must be from some world or time period without them. Like... well, most of Espio's friends outside his homeworld, actually. "Television," he clarified, and despite sounding thoroughly impatient, he continued. "It's a device with a screen, like the communicators, only it's mostly for entertaimment. Back home, most people had one. Only certain companies could show stuff, and there were rules about what could be shown."
