arrival
Who: Bruce Banner + anyone else!
Broadcast: Yes
Action: SS Caprine
When: June 18
[broadcast; video]
[He's managed to make the transition to the Caprine without too much difficulty, but now that's he's "settling in", Bruce is realizing just what being on a ship long term means.]
So, this is it. We just play along with this show, act like nothing is wrong, and hope we eventually get to our destination? That's optimistic. How do you manage to live on ships like this for so long? I've never- This is... it doesn't seem like a good idea.
[He smiles uneasily. He has to resist the urge to pick at his own body, making him twitch a bit. At least he hasn't had any issues so far?]
The food isn't very good either.
[Action on the SS Caprine]
[At least he's used to lab work! Bruce is relieved that is assignment is something he's familiar with (although he did manage to fly a ship once...) and he spends a good amount of time poking around at the ship's equipment, testing both what it can do and what knowledge seems to come to him, because he definitely hasn't worked on a space ship like this before. Or worked around people this casually either. Not to mention the enclosed space makes him very aware of how tight it would be if he were bigger.
That's a great thought.]

[Even though he doesn't exactly raise his voice, the reaction is sharp, suggesting restrained panic and something else. Annoyance? Disbelief? He doesn't say what's on his mind, but the words have hit him hard.
He makes a quiet noise in the back of his throat, not quite a full groan but a stifled note beneath a grimace that resembles oh. After looking around him at the rest of the room he's in and finding nothing to help him, he looks back at Stephen.]
New worlds. As in planets nobody on board recognizes.
