006 ☀ video ☀ FORWARD-DATED to a few minutes POST-JUMP end

[tumbleweeds]

[ There are a few things everyone might notice about this video post. One is that there's no way Jaye could have gotten from the medbay to the kitchen on the 001 passenger floor this quickly. Two is that her hair looks both dirtier and longer than usual, and instead of either happily mussed or neatly groomed, it's just a complete mess. Three is that, judging by the way Jaye sort of seems to be wobbling back and forth on the floor and has burst capillaries in her face, she was just rather sick and might be so again. Likewise, anyone who looked around before or after the jump may have noticed that Jaye wasn't there -- didn't go down, didn't go into the gravity couches, and that Faith Lehane was looking after her animals. ]

So. [ Her voice is hoarse, quiet, and the rasp is completely new and sounds painful –- in fact, she has to pause, clearing her throat for a moment. It doesn't go away completely, but she's a bit louder, at least. ] I-- [ and she winces ] sat out during the jump as an insect. Don’t do that. It was a month. Everything was red, copper and salt, until it ended.

[ It hurts to talk, and Jaye takes a moment to rub at her throat. ] Want a shower, food.

[ She pauses, glancing away from the camera for a moment. Her eyes aren’t exactly wet, and maybe it's from her earlier vomiting, but either way... ] Missed you guys. [ And she cuts the feed. ]

((ooc: MCU!Tony will be getting her from the kitchen and carrying her down to medical. Her replies will probably come from after she's there and probably be in text form. If your character wants to go visit her there (or fuss at her or whatever), I'd be up for it, but be warned that she's having a bit of a hard time talking at the moment and will set Faith on you if she feels shitty.

Also someone might want to clean up the 001 kitchen. ))

It couldn't have just felt that long because of the form you were in?

[tumbleweeds]

my body changes. my mind doesn't.

[olympicgrade]

No matter what you turn into? [ That's definitely piqued Olivia's interest. ] How long have you had this ability?

[tumbleweeds]

about eight years

[olympicgrade]

And you've always been able to turn into any sort of animal? Even if you've never seen it in person?

[tumbleweeds]

since i got the ability, yeah. knowing what they look like definitely helps but i don't need to have stood before a live one, no

[olympicgrade]

What about other things? Can you shift into other people?

[tumbleweeds]

just animals

[olympicgrade]

Are there others from your world capable of the same sort of thing, or is it just you?

[tumbleweeds]

yeah, a few. depends on the gift they've given

[olympicgrade]

[ She nods slightly. And while she definitely wants to know more about Jaye and where she comes from, she's got the basics now; may as well let Jaye rest. ]

Alright. Thanks for entertaining my curiosity and make sure you get some rest.

[tumbleweeds]

will do
