[ 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?

Bonnie. You really don't want to know my dreams. [ He has no prince to be kissed by. A true tragedy. No talking about his actual dreams because they tend to be fucked up and all about freaky future stuff.]

I could ask you the same question.

You could, but I'm not the one asking vague questions and using terminology from the 1600's.

You're just the one hoarding old creepy leather bound books.

It's a family heirloom and if I were hoarding it, I'd have, like, seventy and I wouldn't be able to see the floor of my room. [ they'd probably also be dusty and gross ]

Now you're just using my words against me. [ He's just going to place a hand over his heart as if he's so hurt by that implication. And hey, at least they're not talking about him again.]

To be fair, that's really all I've been doing. [ But this conversation is lighter than some she's had this week. It doesn't suck. It's a little go-round-in-circles for her taste, but it gets her mind of things that suck/are really dangerous. ]

Good point. [ He's good at light talk. You should see him do few "fake" magic tricks. It'll entertain you for hours.] Can't say you're not skilled at it.

Everybody has to be skilled at something. [ she's skilled at ~~calling people out on hypocrisy and judging~~ using your words against you ]

You're right.

Never play poker against me. [ There's an hint of amusement at that. Maybe his lying, maybe he's not.]

I'm not much for poker. [ but her life is as high stakes as it gets. ] I see people pointed you to the beer.

Darn and here I was hoping for a game. [ Let's not play who has higher stakes in life.] They did. Thankfully. You want to grab one?

[ She will win. Every. Fucking. Time. (Probably.) ]

Don't take this the wrong way, but, I don't. Thank you for the offer. [ she really needs to keep her wits about her at all times ]

[ They might break even.]

I'll just not to be too hurt by the rejection Bonnie. [ But hey, he's just going to shrug. No biggie.]

[ Maybe. If they get to be better friends. ]

Do what you want, Peter. Good luck with that affliction of yours. If anyone tells you they saw Goody Martha with the devil, ignore them. They'll eventually be burned at the stake themselves.

[ There's always hope.]

I have no idea what the hell Goody Martha is. Good luck with that dusty book of yours.

Thanks. Something tells me I'm going to need it.

[ And then she disconnects the feed. ]
