[ so baby's gone. the one person she had any kind of rapport with. sweet pea doesn't know whether to laugh or to cry. she had done a bit of both and wondered when the hell she turned into such a sensitive flower.

baby's departure doesn't mean shit in the long run. sweet pea's still here and she still needs to get back, though it seems more and more like she should only wait until she is sent back—because she has to be. she cannot entertain another thought.

but it's only now hitting her how very alone she is. no family, no friends. no rocket, no baby, not even amber or blondie. she keeps to her room, cleaning her weapons. when she feels in control, she turns on the tablet. ]

Babydoll's gone. [ sweet pea manages to keep a brisk tone of voice. it's even convincing. ] She said she'd had some things going with some of you. Whatever it was, let me know and I'll do my best to hold up her end of the bargain.

[ a little pause. her otherwise professional veneer cracks. ]

If you didn't meet her, you missed your fucking chance.

Think we can we move our practice up to today? I could use the exercise.

[ alisha gets kidnapped today but w/e w/e she knows babydoll and it's enough for her to pull herself out of her little hole prior to the snatching and say something. ]

Shit. Seriously?

[ well, duh, alisha. but babydoll was perhaps the first person she met in this place. she was the first person to make alisha feel like not all hope was lost. ]

Sorry you lost her. She was a really good person.

She is. [ the continued use of past tense has her about to scream. ] I haven't lost her. She'll be fine.

[ they're all getting out, all of them, they have to, they have to-- ]

[ sweet pea's tone of voice makes alisha wonder if she's living in denial about babydoll's well-being because something horrible happens to her. rudy's ahead of her time-wise. why can't sweet pea be of babydoll? ]

You from her home world or whatever the fuck it is people here are calling it?

[clario]

Yeah. We live in the same place.

[ "live" is used loosely. survive may be a better fit. ]

She said she was on a train before she got here.

[ alisha shifts slightly, a little uncomfortable. she doesn't like presuming the worst. she doesn't want to think that one of her first mates here is anything but okay. but she wants to know. and curse fucking simon for pressing that need to know everything into her. ]

Do you know if she's gonna be all right?

[ a train...? ]

Yeah. She'll be fine.
