driftfleet | Suddenly Seymour (001)

Who: Seymour Krelborn and you!
Broadcast: Yes
Action: Marsiva
When: Right now

[Seymour wakes up slowly, and at first he doesn't even realize anything is wrong until he suddenly realizes that he had no memory of even trying to go to bed last night with... everything that happened.]

I don't remember...

[His vague confusion quickly grows to near-panic as he realizes he's in a completely unfamiliar area. He almost jumps out of his cot and tries in vain to find some sort of exit to this place.

Of course that stops as soon as he looks out of the window and notices that he is in space. He barely keeps himself from screaming as he tries desperately to now look for anyone else on the ship.]

Hello? Am I dreaming? Or dead?

... Twoey, did you do this?

[He didn't know why Twoey would want to trap him in space, but why couldn't they? They could apparently grant wishes and can talk, and Seymour really had no idea what the extent of their powers were.

... Dear god did he just fall into a trap?]

[Well that makes Seymour pause a bit. While he's happy to see more people he has no idea how this girl got "I know your father" out of anything he's just said.

He tries so hard to seem casual about it to not disappoint her too much, but it's too awkward.]

Your father? I'm sorry but you're one of the first people I've run into.

But you said - Tui?

[Or something similar enough that automatically heard his name in the word. Regardless, she takes a breath and crosses her arms (a gesture of determination rather than frustration) and looks at him.]

I'm sure I'll find him soon. He can't be far. But... I don't think we've met.

I did, but...

[He looks at Moana in confusion. Surely she can't be talking about his Twoey. She's both too gentle and not a plant to be Audrey II's daughter.

He supposed, maybe, that her father is someone like [Insert Name Here] II, which could still justify that nickname. Either way he feels really awkward asking about that.]

I don't think we have. I'm pretty sure I would have remembered meeting you. I'm Seymour

[Not meant as an insult at all. Moana just looks pretty well put together and, besides Audrey, virtually no one on Skid Row was put together at all.

Also no one in their right mind would wear an outfit like that in New York in the fall.]

[She almost lets it go, but something about his first response makes her head tilt slightly, and she continues.]

Tui is my dad's name, but I guess you're talking about someone else.

[More importantly, she nods to his greeting, answering back.]

My name is Moana. You... wouldn't happen to know anything about how we got here, would you?

Probably. What's he like?

[Seymour do you really need to make sure if this human lady's father is a plant?]

No idea. One moment I was awake in my room and the next... I'm here. I didn't even feel tired at all last night.

[Given the last interaction she had with her father, there's a small sigh.]

Strict. [A small pause.] But... Responsible and caring, too.

[There's no mention of plant-like behavior, so he's probably good.]

I was on a boat. Now we're in the sky... It doesn't make sense.

Definitely not my guy then.

[In no world is Audrey II caring.]

It really doesn't. I was just sitting down, I don't even have any memory of even thinking about falling asleep before waking up here. I have a really hard time believing this is really happening.
