Who: Jeyne and YOU!
Broadcast: N/A
Action: S.S. Blue Fish, S.S. Iskaulit, Anywhere
When: Jan 6th

Iskaulit

[Since hearing of it from Beverly, Jeyne visited the gardens at least twice in a week. With her lessons in medicine increasing, it seemed a wise idea to test the various plants and determine what sort of use they might have. With small samples, she is able to experiment and test, all mainly with herself (as she wouldn't want to subject anyone else to this.) Some plants are recognizable or close to what she knew in her world. For the rest? It's a guessing game.

Her latest project is a sweet smelling salve. When not attempting to mix it with other plants, she rubs it gently on her wrists, smelling the aroma with a small smile.]

Blue Fish

[From one type of experimenting to another. With very few patients to treat, Jeyne has begun to occupy herself with different skills, determined to learn them and no longer be a wastrel. She practices her cooking when able, sometimes not burning the meal and slowly making something that looks nearly appetizing. She continues her lessons with Beverly in medicine, dutifully taking notes. When not with Beverly, she reads over all the information she compiled, committing it to memory and practicing in her head. There are times when she wanders to the cargo deck, toying with her bow (sans arrows), muttering to herself as she works at her aiming.

It's a bit difficult without a target or arrows, but she doesn't intend to injure anyone...even if it would help improve her medical training.]

Comments

[passingthrough]

If he did it over opposition then it's probably even more important to him. [Though she knows how much it hurts when someone does decide they don't want to be with you anymore.]

[goodandtrue]

I hope so.

[She pulled herself back from that vulnerability, forcing a smile to her face.]

I'm sorry. I shouldn't burden you with any of this. I am being silly.

[passingthrough]

We all need someone to talk to sometimes. It can be easier with a stranger. Or with someone who already knows what happened. Today, for this, I'm both. It's not silly or a burden.

[goodandtrue]

What would you do in this instance, if it were Winn that had done this?

[passingthrough]

Oh, wow. I mean, Winn isn't from back home. I met him here, but if I disappeared for awhile and then returned to find out he'd been upset and drunk and hitting on someone then I don't know. [But she looks thoughtful, trying to answer as honestly as possible.] I'd probably feel bad for him that he was hurting like that and also a little insecure and jealous about whoever he hit on. But I'd want to be with him and work through it.

I've also told him before that if we get separated that I would want him to find happiness and love again. But that's a lot easier to say without thinking about returning to find him actually doing it. And you guys never had a reason to have that kind of talk and you're different people in a different place in your relationship with different circumstances.

[goodandtrue]

At least I know I am not being completely irrational. [Even though she knew that she'd have to move on from this soon. It was in the past. Kitty had the right of it, Robb had been lonely and drunk. Could she really fault him for missing her?]

Thank you. [For the advice and for listening.] I should probably return to my room. I'm sorry for the response I gave you.

[passingthrough]

Sure. I was going to work out anyway. And don't worry about it. I think under the circumstances you've been great. For what it's worth I'm glad to meet you. I was happy for Robb when I heard you were here. Not that I want anyone abducted from their world of course. [But as long as that decision is out of their hands there are some people it's better to see than others.]

[goodandtrue]

It's better I am here than where I was. I don't mind being brought to this world.

[Even if Robb wasn't in it.]

I truly would like to meet with you again. I harbor no animosity towards you and should like to be friends.

[passingthrough]

I hear that a lot from your world. [So much like her own that way. She smiles at the other girl.]

Then we should meet again. Friends are always good. I hope things go well with you and Robb. [She stands and nods.] I'll see you.
