Suddenly Seymour (001)

[dontfeedplants]

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?]

Romance? This seems like a really bad place to fall in love.

[Said the guy who decided that "Like two seconds after she found out her boyfriend vanished and might be dead" would be a good place to confess his love to someone.]

But I guess as long as it fades... I gotta admit, I kinda like the idea of traveling through space, even though I had to be kidnapped to do this.

[morphitudinous]

I feel the same. I always wanted to see the stars, new planets, new ways of life...it's been a little disappointing so far, but I have hope. Just as long as the next planet isn't underwater.

[dontfeedplants]

Disappointing? Even with the kidnapping, I feel like it wouldn't be that disappointing.

[... Wait what about the water?]

You were on an underwater planet just now?

[morphitudinous]

Fortunately, I wasn't, but the rest of the crew was. I beamed aboard just as we were leaving that system.

As long as I don't have to encounter giant fish up close, I think I'll be happy out here.

[dontfeedplants]

...You're afraid of fish?

[Huh, he's never heard of that sort of fear before.]

[morphitudinous]

...actually, yes. It's not as bad as it used to be, but I received an awful bite as a child and I've never really warmed to them.

I can face them! I'd just prefer not to.

[dontfeedplants]

[Okay he can get that at least.]

Gee, I'd probably feel the same way about fish too if that were me. Of course I've never exactly felt fond of animals in the first place, so I would have stayed away from all animals if I got bitten by one.

Not that I really hate animals, I'm just more of a plant person.

[morphitudinous]

Oh, really? What sort of work do you do with plants?

[dontfeedplants]

Oh I'm just a florist, myself. I have personal interests in more exotic plants but I haven't been able to work with them professionally until recently.

[... Although he really doesn't wanna dwell on that so he's gonna try to... gently direct the topic away from the exotic plants.]

Actually, do you know if we can have plants up here? It would feel so dreary here without some.

[morphitudinous]

Yes, I believe so. This particular ship's a little dreary, but others have collections from all the planets they've visited. They're definitely interesting.

[dontfeedplants]

[He looks thoughtful.]

Maybe I'll try buying some plants if I ever get the money to. I imagine it'll get pretty depressing up here without some.

[... Safe ones.]
