[Wrath has bounced back from the strain of the all-out evacuation and watching the world get destroyed--and some other personal stuff--reasonably well. Probably because she's already survived her own apocalypse, and she got to feel like she was helping people. Which is all she really wants to do anyway.

So with things settling back into her normal routine, she's spending time in the kitchen, sitting comfortably on a chair with her painter in her lap, drawing. She's also gotten back into her normal training routine with Officer Snuggles, using the cargo bay for exercise for them both when she can't be bothered to go to the Iskaulit.

She's also taking the First Officer thing very seriously, which means she's spending a shift on the Bridge to keep an eye on things, and making rounds on the ship fairly often to check in with people. Crew is important, after all.]

[Picasso... that's a name she recognizes! Old Earth artist, still super famous. And THEY WHAT?]

What? Where? When? Where is it?

[ A few names and faces have changed on the Heron, but that's really nothing new. If you've survived a few months on the Heron, congratulations! Welcome to the ship of misfits, your captain is quiet and lurky most of the time, but cares for his squad deeply.

That being said, Bucky can be found in several key places throughout the month. He's a man of routine, so at any time during the day, he can be seen roaming the hallways, making his rounds and looking for anything out of the ordinary-- particularly late at night when the ship is mostly silent. More and more, the kitchen is a good place to find him, either refueling with coffee or sitting at the table reading a book. Or perhaps even cleaning his arsenal of weapons, spread across the table. (Seriously, how many knives does this guy own?) A small boombox sits nearby, playing a collection of songs they may have heard before.

Maybe you'll catch him in the wee hours of the morning in the cargo bay running on the treadmill or doing too many push-ups. ]

[Natasha came by to spend a little time with Barnes, maybe read together, or if she's lucky convince him to read to her while she dozes off. His voice is comforting to her, and things are better but she could use the comfort. When she finds him doing push ups, though, her plans get postponed in favor of watching him workout.

She leans against a store of supplies, staying silent though she figures he knows she's there.]

[ Really, he's coming in because his favorite cup is void of coffee. At first, he does little more than glance at Sawyer and his book as he goes about the motions of making fresh coffee. Once it's brewing, he turns his back to the counter and leans against it, crossing his arms in front of him. ]

Good read?

What? That's silly. I'm not Picasso. He was a guy. And he did cubism. Like really well.

Um. My name's Wrath. And I do neo-impressionism?

Oh. Sorry. I... sometimes have a hard time understanding people when they don't say exactly what they mean. It's because my brain is full of holes.

Nice to meet you Sawyer! Oh, right, you're the other security person on the ship. That's great.
pain_train: (grin 4)

[personal profile] pain_train 2017-10-16 05:18 am (UTC)(link)
I... guess not? People don't get a lot of what I say either, so maybe that's just normal. [Erm.] Like... I've had a lot of head injuries? And then um... I mean, I don't really remember this, but people I trust told me I got my memories wiped a shitload of times and that kind of fucked things up in my head too.

Means we can be an effective team when something needs to get its head kicked in.

If it's just the once you're probably okay? Like if you haven't noticed short-term memory problems or anything. I think it gets more fucked up if it's like a bunch of times and they do a lot of recode grafts because you just end up with all these... loose fragments that don't mean anything.

Well, you gotta work how you can. But I can help you with some stretches...
pain_train: (why would you do that)

[personal profile] pain_train 2017-10-19 05:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Does it? Wow, that really sucks. Though you're not even that old, are you? [He doesn't look old.]

Oh. Okay!
pain_train: (Default)

[personal profile] pain_train 2017-10-22 05:57 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, that's really young. I think... um. I'm forty-five? That's what my medical record says. [She just only remembers about a quarter of that with any clarity, so...]

Um. It's okay. I just don't get stuff sometimes, but it doesn't bother me. So don't worry about it!

[personal profile] pain_train 2017-10-24 05:56 pm (UTC)(link)
45 is like barely middle-aged anyway! [That sure makes two of you.]

Okay, I'll definitely ask. That's nice of you. [She's been asking less and less at times just because it gets awkward, so total permission is awesome.]

[Oh boy, the past few days still weighed heavy on the Yellow Paladin. Seeing the meteor it the planet, knowing his friends were still on it and being powerless to stop it… It was a very real, terrifying experience. So Hunk did what he does best to relax and recenter himself. Bake.

And a lot of it. Hunk was off in his own little world, wearing crisp white apron, surrounded by copious amounts of sweets, way too much for one normal man. He counted his blessings that the Heron had a decent kitchen to work in. It wasn’t a 5 star restaurant but having powdered eggs was better than that artificially flavored gel they tried to push off as food….

When he wasn’t drowning in pastries, Hunk retreated to the engine room to toil away at some experiments Pidge and himself had planned. So far had hadn’t made much progress with finding out how the implants worked. Even so… it was something to keep his mind busy.

Something like that. It's all... relative. Like you're more the sum of experiences and that doesn't directly um... what's the word. Correlate? With age. I think that's it.

[And if a lot of your experiences have been taken from you, well...]

Oh yeah, definitely not. Like... I only met people from Earth when the Immune started showing up in my city. It's gotta be cool to be from Earth though!
pain_train: (that's interesting 2)

[personal profile] pain_train 2017-10-30 09:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, my friend Delta talked like that all the time. He was super good at math. [She misses Delta.]

Um, they were people from like other worlds and times that somehow got brought to the city? It was weird and complicated. But they were immune to the dysthrophe and we weren't. They weren't happy to be there, though.

What kind of wacky shit?
pain_train: (that's interesting 2)

[personal profile] pain_train 2017-11-04 06:00 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, kind of? I guess so. Huh. But I mean... it was a little different cause people here can do some crazy shit, right? No one could where I'm from. Like they'd say they could shoot lightning bolts out of their ass back home, but no one could in my city.

Well I mean... conspiracies aren't crazy if they're true, though.
pain_train: (swallow sadness)

[personal profile] pain_train 2017-11-08 04:53 am (UTC)(link)
I think they were blocked? Cause like everyone knew what they should be able to do and stuff, they just... couldn't.

Huh. That sounds like what Erik and Charles talked about kind of. [Saying this more to herself, though she's not really thinking that Sawyer probably didn't know those friends of hers] Losing your memories is scary.
pain_train: (Default)

[personal profile] pain_train 2017-11-12 05:16 am (UTC)(link)
Guess different shitty places work their shit in different shitty ways.

[She brightens--she misses Charles, but it feels good to have other people around who still remember him. Makes it all seem more real for someone who's always doubting her own thoughts.] Yeah, that's him! He was my friend.
pain_train: (swallow sadness)

[personal profile] pain_train 2017-11-18 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
[Her smile falters. She misses Charles, so much it hurts. And Erik too. She'd finally stopped feeling like he hated her.] I mean... he was okay when I last saw him. But he's been gone for a while I guess.

Bad timing, I guess. He was... really great. Too bad you didn't get to know him. [Some day she'll stop feeling sad. Not today, though.]
pain_train: (i wish i could remember)

[personal profile] pain_train 2017-11-25 10:18 pm (UTC)(link)
I really hope so! I mean, unless he went to a nicer place. But I even worry about him if he went home, because... I don't know. It sounded like he didn't really have anyone to tell him not to be a shithead and that it's okay to have feelings and take care of yourself.
pain_train: (i wish i could remember)

[personal profile] pain_train 2017-11-26 06:24 am (UTC)(link)
I hope you're right. But like... it took me and Winter and Hank to try to wrangle him here and he didn't have his whole school expecting him to be perfect. Ugh.
pain_train: (understanding)

[personal profile] pain_train 2017-11-27 04:48 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, that's him. But Hank's just one guy, and he's got his own shit to deal with so... I worry about him too. Though not as much as I worry about Charles.

Hank didn't have nearly as much of a hurfdurf problem as Charles.

I try not to most of the time. Worrying gives you wrinkles anyway.
