( action | oct.03 ) arrival

medical bay | escape from alcatraz
[ If Scott had to choose a way in which he'd wake up on another planet, completely cut off from his home, his family, his pack, then being licked by an eager dog is most definitely his welcome of choice. He's always been fond of animals, and as frazzled as he is (largely convinced this is some strange nemeton-induced hallucination), the presence of a dog by his side, barking and pawing at him does wonders to calm his nerves.

At least until he notices the glowing eyes in the rest of the room, his heart promptly freezing in his chest. Because the thing is, that while Scott loves all animals, the feeling is most definitely not mutual.

It's only thanks to his werewolf senses that he manages to react in time, hearing the first warning growl and how many eyes is that even, before he's scrambling to his feet and getting the hell out of dodge.

He bolts through the door, barrelling into the hallway with no remorse. ]


Sorry! Sorry, sorry!!

kitchen | got a booty like a cadillac
Oh, sorry.

[ It's all gone so wrong.

There's probably a map on the device that URSULA had given him, and he's young enough to be able to figure out these newfangled gadgets, but he's still here, slumming around blindly like a plebian. Which means that he's made about five wrong turns into the kitchen while carrying all his stuff. It hadn't been so bad until the mattress had decided to inflate himself the moment he'd stepping into the fork and knife loaded space.

And now he's desperately trying to manoeuvre around the kitchen without his mattress destroying everything that stands in its path. (Another pair of mugs go clattering toward the ground.) ]


Oh—I'm really. [ He winces. ] Sorry, I didn't mean to trap you against the wall.

[ Or maybe he did; teenagers are kind of the worst. ]

[ please feel free to leave a blank comment and i'll write you a custom prompt! or vice versa, just hit me with anything and i'll roll with it. i'm always down to plot something out as well. c: ]


edit: i'm an idiot that didn't think of this sooner, but i realised that it might be handy to have a permissions post regarding scott's werewolf senses. if you have time, please consider filling it out!

[ She was trying to think of a way to wrap a sandwich, but if he's fine with rice, she perks up and nods. In the dry supplies brought back as salvage by the rest of the crew, rice had been there, though she's not sure they have a ricemaker. Hmm. Stovetop it is.

Making these decisions, her response to his question is a tad delayed.
]

Huh? Oh, no, not like that. You have to concentrate on what you want people to say, or to see! I've sent mental pictures like that before. It's pretty cool.

[ She gives him another small, reassuring smile. She would reach out to touch his arm as well, but he's new, and he's apparently able to transform to some degree, so she doesn't want to startle him if he doesn't like space invasion. Her mental voice reaches out to him, sounding like her spoken voice, only with an added feeling of reassurance. ]

I can speak to you like this, but I have no idea what you're thinking. It's just another way of having a conversation.

Uhm —

[ wow space how do you describe space?? ]

— really big? Everything is a lot further apart then you'd think.
braavado: (Sounds easy enough)

It might make things worse. [She laughs a little.] There's a lot of people coming in and out of this room, you know? Maybe not the best place to camp out.

There's a few rooms open, though. You can probably choose one of those for yourself.

[ Kara grimaces a little. ]

Sorry I don't have anything cooler. I was asleep for the journey.

Glad to hear that.

Rooms are that way [ she gestures to the left. ] there's plenty to do here, if that helps a little.

[ for eve's part, it's clear she's very grateful for the chance to catch her breath. she knew she was never good under pressure and she feels ada's growing insistence to switch out and let her deal with this.

ada means well, she really does. and much as she's tempted to, eve doesn't want to surprise him any further by, apparently, changing personalities at the drop of a hat. before he got his answers too. ]
She wants to make this world more… suitable for life, I believe? Make the environment more habitable for people to live on.

Hence some of our arrival here. We help look for supplies, search for new areas, research plants and animals we discover, look into mysteries and solve them if we can. Things like that.

[ well- the others and her sister, ada, do at least. (the most eve has been doing is making a tapestry to hang up on in the recreation room soon.) ]

If you want, we can sit there- [ here is where she points to an empty table nearby. that should accommodate them both and leave room to spare. ] -while we speak. I think there's a place for you to set your things down too.

Good enough to tell your friends from other people, do they wear a really distinct perfume?

[He has no idea werewolves are even a thing outside of stories.]

[thanks for considering makoto into the machinations of an escape. if this base ever starts burning and going to hell, makoto will be sure to find scott so he can be dragged out to safety.]

[but, for the time being, he's just more confused than anything else; everything is happening too fast!]

Uh... They're usually really friendly!

[what he saw just now, though, it was the picture of a hellscape kind of thing]

Perhaps they were--hungry? [more importantly (after a hiccup)] Are you alright?

[thankfully scott's impact with the door means that makoto gets a heads up before he, too, ends up close and personal with it from the momentum. he gets to put his hands up and cushion the impact.]

[scott's life is miserable right now, is what makoto thinks as he glances down.]


...you can't say you're alright now.

[calmly, and with no cats in sight, makoto untangles himself from this furry mess and steps back, until he can get on his haunches and properly help scott sit up a bit.]

[hiccups at least gone from the surprise, he looks the other teen over.]

Is your head spinning, or do you think you can stand just fine?

[personal profile] splasher 2016-11-02 03:06 am (UTC)(link)
...just a bit.

[shocking, but it's also a good sign that scott's only damage seems to be mishearing what makoto said initially. at this point, so long as they aren't in "danger" is a good thing.]

That was quite a shock. I don't know what came over the cats. --my name's Makoto. Are you new to the base?
armoured: (silly] holy fuckballs)

[personal profile] armoured 2016-11-02 10:44 pm (UTC)(link)
W-What?!

[He falters a step before he can stop himself, nearly crashing right into the wall before he manages to right himself and keep going. His voice, already high pitched, just gets higher out of nerves.]

Of course I sweat! I'm just not sweating right now, it's... uh, I'm really cold, you see, and so-- uh...

[ABORT!]

Maybe they didn't like the sound. Cats are fickle like that.

[makoto, pure as can be.]

[he takes a moment, sitting back on his knees, and allowing scott some time to catch up with his senses.]


I bet you have tons of questions. I could answer some of them.
armoured: (gen] note)

[He's not an idiot, he can tell from that expression that his lies haven't exactly been accepted, but at least Scott isn't pushing it and letting them move on.

He will grasp that conversation topic with both hands, thank you.]


I'm not sure exactly, but it's pretty deep. I got lost trying to find my way back here one night, it's so dark this far down, so be careful if you go out into the ocean.

--that's a horror movie I decided I could live without.

[flatly, because he doesn't like being reminded of spoops]

So, no.
