First roll of the die

Jun 20, 2011 13:15

[Over all? Amelia is not enjoying her introduction to Paradisa a single bit. The idea that's she's been snatched from not just her motel room, but her entire world is bad enough. But she's also struggling to walk on something called a ship, without having to stop every five minutes to heave over the railing or into a bucket. The ocean may be ( Read more... )

[Kaylee hasn't left the belly of the ship since the attacks started. She's not quite as cheerful as she was yesterday. She's also distracted enough that she doesn't immediately notice the source of Amelia's frustration.]

[Amelia spends some time talking to the book, which feels as insane as it sounds. She'll look around every now and then, until at one point she spots Kaylee--who looks pretty miserable.

And Amelia can't blame her. She brings the book along, and makes her way to where Kaylee's perched. It isn't easy, and at the end Amelia all but crashes into the side of the cot.]

Ow!

[that gets her attention]

Hey! You okay?

thedicearecast June 21 2011, 05:51:16 UTC

I'm fine.

[Mostly. Amelia can't right herself right away for fear of retching, but if she moves slowly enough, maybe.]

I was going to ask you that, actually. With everything that happened yesterday, you didn't get hurt, did you?

onemanshort June 21 2011, 05:54:48 UTC

[a bit of a guilty look] I ain't hurt.

I was just hopin' that we'd get some time on a ship where we ain't runnin' for our lives.

Good.

[Amelia doesn't know why she looks guilty, but she's not going to comment on it.]

It would've been nice, but it didn't happen. I'm glad you're okay though.

I'm alright.

[she curls up a little on her cot, resting her chin on her knees] Figures. The time we finally end up on a ship, and it ain't even one I can be useful on.

thedicearecast June 21 2011, 16:52:11 UTC

At least you can walk more than five feet at a time. That's something useful.

[The fact that Amelia is still kneeling isn't unrelated to this.]

It's like the worst hangover I've ever had, times a thousand.

You've been gettin' seasick?

[D:]

...maybe I could look in the kitchen...see if there's somethin' that could help with settlin' it?
