[ The comms device is on for a few moments, the picture bouncing around one of the rooms like a merry go round, before it finally it settles on a messy long-haired young man. His eyes squinting at the device for a few moments. Not in confusion, more in annoyance. The camera shifts again as he lowers the camera enough to rest on surface before he’s leaning forward.]

First of all. Fuck this place. And fuck whatever bought us here.

Because while wondering around in space sounds like a fun idea. It’s less appealing in practice.

[ His voice is slow and careful, there’s almost held back humour at the whole situation. Because of course this would fucking happen to him. There’s a lull in conversation there, as if he expects someone to answer him. With no answer he continues.]

Fine. Does anyone have a beer at least? Because this shit isn't exactly the easiest to swallow.

Out of curiosity, if someone were to have a certain...affliction. Does anyone have any idea what this fun little ship would do to it?

There's a bar here, actually.

[extrabraincells]

The miracles never cease. I feel like that should have been apart of the welcome wagon.

I know, right? It took me two weeks to figure that one out. And, like, six months to find out there's pot growing here too.

Gonna have to be more specific with that affliction.

[extrabraincells]

Vague is better.

[avengeful]

Alright, fine, I'll just assume.

The medical bay probably has medication for people who are having trouble with itching in weird places.

That depends what kind of affliction it is.

[ elena herself is a vampire, but she knows a couple werewolves and a vampire-werewolf hybrid, so... she might be able to help, either way. she could at least direct him to someone who might be able to help, if it's one of those things. ]

I've set this channel up to be private, so if you don't want to say where everyone can hear, it's safe.

Depends, what sort do you have?

[ Peter's not exactly the type to spill his beans about his own supernatural status. It's something that's apart who he was and it's something he knew to play close to his chest. But of course someone has to go and change the game by throwing him on the ship.]

Just because you put a private video up doesn't equal trust.

I'm a vampire. The good kind, I promise. No interest in eating anybody. There's synthetic blood in the medbay, and sometimes some of my family get blood bags in their lockers after jumps and we use those.

[ elena's used to secrecy too, but she's been fairly open on the ship. she'd had to vamp out in front of people in the bridge and after that... well, it just didn't seem like lying or dodging the truth would really get her anywhere. ]

I showed you mine, you can show me yours. I won't tell anyone, and I might be able to help.

[invisibilitea]

Space beer.

[extrabraincells]

Come again?

[slipperysoul]

[ ... that was amusingly not vague enough. ]

Kind of really depends on the affliction.

[extrabraincells]

[ He'd rather not hang up a huge sign saying "I'm a werewolf. Ask me how."]

So people keep telling me. I just wanna know if it's been know to drive people crazy.

[ Or wolves. In this case.]

[askedtobe]

No beer, but there's always shitty coffee.

[extrabraincells]

So this space beer is a lie? Should have known.

[unbalancer]

[ a) you've met, so she's already interested. not like that. but b) your affliction talk raises alarm bells. unlike sam winchester down there, this doesn't scream std. ]

You make yourself sound like a character in The Crucible.

[extrabraincells]

[ It's comforting to know someone at least doesn't think he's got one.]

Yeah. I have no idea what that is.

[doggedly]

Space beer isn't any easier to swallow than the rest of it, mate. But don't worry, you'll get used to it soon enough.

[A beat.]

'Affliction'. Are we talking about hemorrhoids, or STIs, or something more dire and serious, 'cos I think the ship leaves most 'afflictions' alone, or it heals them. Depending.

video:

[extrabraincells]

Does it get the job done at least?

[ His eyebrows go up at that.]

Yeah, really regretting using that word right now. I'm going to make this loud and clear. I don't have an STI. That's not something I'd lead with. I meant more in the terms of the ship messing with your brain.

[surrogates]

Affliction? [ really. ] That's the descriptor you're going for?

[ really. ]

voice » locked

[extrabraincells]

Yeah. [ really ]

Sort of deeply regretting it now.

Peter.

[ derek sounds a little exasperated. first impressions aren't his forte. ]

Which affliction are you talking about?

auggielocked;

[extrabraincells]

Have we met?

[ Because hey, he's heard about that happening here. He's just going to lean forward a little.]

Moon cycles. I broke my leg once, it still hurts during the full moon. [ Best cover up ever. Nope.]

[nightblogs]

tell me ur not undead

[extrabraincells]

Nope. Do I look it?
