I knew it.
[ hyde's got his sunglasses on, but even those don't conceal the suspicious squint he's sporting. when he speaks the tone is all excitement, words tumbling out in a rush. his hair still damp, and there’s the faint suggestion of smoke as he gestures. in the background someone’s moving around, though hyde doesn’t turn to watch. a shirt flies past his head and lands on the bed behind him. ]
This is a government experiment, isn't it?I knew it, I knew these existed, and no one ever believed it! I knew NASA was a front, exploration my ass, they're using space just for this mental shit, aren't they? Did you stick a tracking device up my ass when you tattooed me, huh? Huh?
[ there's a pause, the first stirrings of uncertainty, maybe fear. when hyde takes a pause, it’s the first time the person in the background becomes visible, finally fully dressed and tired of hunting for a blowdryer, to see who he happens to be talking to. she leans over his shoulder, eyes widening immediately and a loud gasp following ]
Oh my god, Steven! There’s people in there! [ her nose wrinkles a second later] And they’re so weird looking.
Wait your turn, Jackie! I’m trying to make a point. The future’s full of government stooges, whatever, we’ve got to document it. [ for all his obvious irritation, he doesn’t flinch away when she puts her hand on his shoulder, leans in close to look. ] Hey, who's in charge here? Is this transmitting? Hello? Why even give me this thing if you're not gonna answer me?
[ ooc | the blue font is jackie burkhart! ]

[She'll actually laugh a little, and that's- probably the most genuine smile anyone other than Hyde has seen out of her in some time. Yes, Neal, this is like a dating profile, tell her everything] You seem to have pretty good taste too, so what else do you like?
I know, but it's so hard. They should be more appreciative, you know? It's not like we're getting paid to brighten up their pathetic lives. I'm doing them a favour by being in the same room as them.

[ and then the bff5evaship of jackie and hyde and neal and moz was sealed the end. ] Good food, good wine, expensive clothes and more expensive art. [ wait for it. ] And beautiful women, of course.
[ good LORD ] You pull it off masterfully, all the same.
no subject
[And it was beautiful and amazing for pretty much them only, the rest of the ship wished desperately for a self destruct sequence] Definitely have good taste. Is good food actually in space? There's no money.
[Which she still thinks is a crime tbh] Thank you! So do you!
no subject
no really. it's canon. ] But for you, there's no charge so money isn't needed.
[ basically the world is doomed and these two are why, the end. ]
no subject
[Because clearly she doesn't have any, and then there's a beat. She likes you, so she's willing to admit how much of a mooching problem this might be if you really make this an offer] Because I can't cook. That's what I had servants for.
[You know- Before her dad went to prison and they had no money. But at least when the world ends, it's going down like a classy fucking party. Is it bad taste to make jokes about getting a band to go down with our ship? meteors are our iceberg]

[ jackie you get him.
and now, adopting a conspiratorial tone: ] I know it's not exactly haute cuisine, but I do have a waffle maker and I figured out how to fake blueberry syrup almost exactly... the maple's still a little off.
Sometimes a little comfort food is called for.
no subject
[Instead of you know, calling immigration like they should? She has never met another person who's understood her so well before and actually on the same page. She's in love.
She's a little in awe ngl, she didn't doubt your skills but- waffles] And you know just when those situations appear. What's the status on whipped cream?
[She's saying yes but she's curious anyway]
no subject
[ dear jackie how awesome is he, right
p fucking awesome yeah neal thinks so too. ]
