Who: Sam Wilson (AU) and you!
Broadcast: n/a
Action: on the SS Bishop, around the Iskaulit
When: now and throughout the week
The SS Bishop
[ Sam'd barely woken up on the Marsiva before he'd found himself whisked away again, and honestly, he's not even surprised. Figures that he wouldn't have enough time to start to get his bearings before he's inexplicably brought somewhere completely new again; that's kind of par for the course of his life the last few years.
He can't even bring himself to be mad about the implant that he can feel just behind his left ear, the one he's guessing is responsible for the sudden influx of knowledge twisting around in his head. It's not like it's the first time that's happened, and at least it's a hell of a lot less invasive than what the Capitol'd done. There's a part of him that's aware that he's probably just deflecting, trying to focus on anything else to keep himself from going down that path, but he doesn't really care right now.
It's hard to keep himself from panicking, more because he's alone and he struggles with self regulation these days than anything else, but he's doing his best.
Mostly that means he's turned all his attention to exploring the ship he's ended up on. He can be found in the armory poking at weapons he doesn't fully understand, as well as helping himself to the sidearm he can make sense of; in the kitchen rooting around in the pantry and fiddling with the machines he's pretty sure make more sense than they should; or roaming the hallways, eyes flashing red and pupils dilating as he scans the walls like they've got secrets he can discover if he only looks long enough. ]
around Iskaulit
[ Most of him doesn't really believe this is the Capitol, not after the way the war'd gone, but there's always the chance that Snow or someone else had some kind of messed up last resort plan, and this is it.
It's enough to make him paranoid about, well, just about everything. He's not sure he really expects to find any more answers on board the Iskaulit than he did on the Bishop. But at least it's bigger, and eases some of the claustrophobic feeling of being trapped in addition to giving him more places to explore.
The garden... honestly just makes things worse, at the moment, and Sam isn't there very long before his wings start to itch under his skin. He'd wanted soothing, but instead he finds himself getting a little more agitated, and he takes off to the gym to get some of the violence out of his system. Sam turns his attention to one of the punching bags built for enhanced strength, going not quite full out against it, but pretty close. He'll slow down at the arrival of anyone else, clearly wary and uncertain though he musters up something like a smile and a casual "hey" in greeting.
Eventually he makes his way to both Malum and the Space Bar, less out of a desire to drink and more out of falling back on the habits he'd had while in the Capitol. It's a little different when there's not a crowd of Capitolites to disappear into, but he slides into a seat anyway with a nod in greeting for anyone who makes eye contact. ]

She also wonders if he could just be glitched out of remembering his time here. After all, she did run into Sam Winchester in the gym while he was glitched younger not too long ago. Maybe the Atroma are amusing themselves with a new running joke.]
It's nice to meet you. Again. How long has it been? Weeks, days, hours? Did one or seven of the Avengers fill you in on this place already? [She couldn't remember seeing anything public on the network but it's been a couple of hours since she checked.]
no subject
[ And it doesn't surprise him at all that there's other Avengers here. Of course there are - the Capitol'd collected them, too, although this doesn't exactly help him be certain they aren't somehow involved. He's not sure what he thinks about the idea of meeting any of them, though, especially when he's not sure if it'll really be them. ]
'Bout a day, I think. And no, you're the first person I've really talked to. [ He hadn't made himself known on the network; made him feel edgy even being connected to it for too long, if he's honest. ] But I bet I can guess - it likes to mess with the people here for the entertainment of whoever the hell's watching and thinks we should be grateful for the opportunity?
no subject
Sounds like you've been in one of these places before. It's my second. I'm not sure if the Atroma want us to be grateful, but they keep a fairly low profile. [Or at least a few and far between one.] This is supposed to be a reality show and we're the reality.
no subject
I'd wonder why all these all powerful groups always seem to think reality is so damn compelling, but even I gotta admit it seems like most of our lives are pretty damn weird. [ And that was before he ended up in Panem. Of course, it could be different here, but even if this isn't still the Capitol, he kind of doubts it. ] What was the first place you were at like?
no subject
It was a prison. I mean, they all are, but it also called itself a prison. Except instead of steel bars and concrete walls it was a small city underwater with a dome over it like some kind of inverted snow globe. We had a lake and an arcade and a ton of restaurants. All kinds of things really. And then some days it would rain fruit punch or you'd turn into a turtle or we'd be attacked by dinosaurs or it would flood until almost all the air was gone or you'd spend a day speaking in rhymes or wake up believing some new history of who you are for a day. Turned out the whole thing was a shared virtual reality projection in our minds while our bodies were held in stasis pods. So...it was like that. Weird.
no subject
That's... a lot, that's like trickster god levels of what the hell. ]
How does here compare with all of that?
no subject
Here is better than the prison. At least the weird is fewer and further between. We've had some attacks though.
Did they bring people back too? Where you were with the killing? [Bring them back to life and make them do it again?]
