[A - Network/Video]

[Oh man, not again. Being kidnapped by some unknown alien force really needed to stop happening. What are even the odds of that? Is there a card you can get stamped? And just in case waking up alone in this very stark room wasn't bad enough, his head was killing him. Probably from the alien lo-jack that he felt behind his ear. Or... that's what he assuming the bump was. But he could worry about that later. He needed to find the others.

Shaking off the headache he slipped off the bed to head for the door. It was eerily quiet as he entered the Hospitably Deck and he paused. The place looked abandoned. Oooookay. This isn't creepy at all. He scanned the area, searching for anything that remotely looked like control panel and made a b-line for it.

The feed flicked on to reveal the image of a young man wearing quite the colorful space suit. His expression brightened seeing that the video was going through.]

There we go.... Hello? Lance? Guys? Is anyone picking up this transmission? This is Hunk, Yellow Paladin of Voltron and I have no idea where I am. I thought I saw a sign that said 'Hospitality Deck' but there doesn't seem to be anyone here. I'd at least expect cupcakes.

Except there is some smooth jazz playing in the distance somewhere? Which just makes me being alone even creepier.

If anyone is getting this, please respond.


[B - SS Heron Bridge]

[There was a sudden new surprise for the crew of the SS Heron. With a flash of confetti and the fanfare of tiny trumpets, a very confused looking Hunk was now standing in the middle of their bridge. He barely had time to send a broadcast let alone explore the previous ship he was on before he was whisked away again. Man, today just keep getting weirder.]

Hello? Anyone here?

[He picked the confetti from his hair as he scanned the room. Defiantly not on the Castle, but hey, its not galra either so... glass half full? And wait a second. Does his eyes deceive him? Was that a plate of chocolate pudding? It was that moment his stomach decided to make it's presence known. When was the last time he ate? Honestly, he couldn't remember which means it was too long. You know, you can't think when your tank is empty.

Sliding on over to the plate, Hunk picked up one of the small cups and was instantly filled with regret the moment its contents touched his lips. Blech! That wasn't chocolate! It was just paste to taste like chocolate which is just an insult to real chocolate! A wave of betrayal washed over his face as he stared down at the cup in his hands.]

Great.... I'm missing food goo already.

[Hunk raised his head from staring down at his hands to see a woman walk in. She was the first real person he has seen since being here. Well, the people over the network were real but you know, they weren't physical. Thank heavens he was not alone here!

Casting glances between her out-stretched hand and his not-pudding cup, he place it back down on the plate before giving Jill a firm handshake.]

Hey, nice to meet you, I'm Hunk. I think I'm your engineer. [He gave her a relieved smile.] You're the first real person I've seen. You have no idea how happy I am to see you. The place I woke up at had no one.

[torsion]

[ Seeing someone in person is always very different than talking to them on the phone or texting them. It's a little like when she'd spoken to Chris, however briefly, before meeting up with him. It was a great relief, but not the same as seeing someone in person. Especially when you've been interdimensionally kidnapped.

Jill clasps his hand, but doesn't shake. Her grip is just strong enough; no struggle or intent to overpower. ]

Ha, really? That a code name? Well, all the same, welcome to the ship. Afraid I've not been here terribly long, but I can do my best to answer any questions you might have. [ The retracted hand settles on her hip, but she remains pleasant and light in expression and tone when she speaks. ] Well, there are several others. Think they might've all taken a shuttle to the planet we're near right now, though, so it might be a good time to familiarize yourself with the ship.

[legs4days]

Code name? [He stares at Jill a moment, realizing she meant his name.] Oooh, no. Hunk is a real name. You saying I'm not tall dark and mysterious?

[Hunk laughs, pulling back his hand to take a second glance at the bridge. So this will be his new home for a while. He'll defiantly will need to take a look around.]

Yeah that's a good idea. If I'm going to be this ship's engineer, I want to see what I'm working with. This ship has a kitchen, right?

[torsion]

Ha, well, you're an interesting kid that I don't know anything about that happens to be taller than me -- and you've got dark hair. Guess technically you might meet that criteria.

[ She laughs, no prickly nerves to it and all pleasantness about her. Jill's on the shorter side of average and if seen on a video or in a photo, people typically expect her to be taller. People also don't expect her voice to be as soft as it is, even as her smile reaches her eyes. ]

Well, can't say much about an engine room on my end, but I can definitely show you the kitchen. It's a little better than most ships and I guess we can upgrade it to make it better? [ She gestures, vaguely, as she begins off down the hall. ] Walk and talk and I'll show you the way? Haven't been here too long, myself, but I can do my best to help you out.

[legs4days]

Any kitchen is a good kitchen. I want to see what we have. I'm pretty handy with a knife. We don't have a cook do we?

[Hunk gave her a pleasant smile, nodding as he trots up beside her to follow.]

Hey, you've been here longer than I have so anything you know would be helpful. So how long have you been here?
