Room 209, Sunday afternoon

Mar 12, 2006 12:44

After a trip into town and then some time spent shooting things because she can, Aeryn decides she might as well do some other things she's been putting off, and checks to see if her E-mail access had been restored. Not that she likes E-mail anyway, or figured anyone would be sending her anything ( Read more... )

Before heading to Angel's party, John tucks the sea monkeys under his arm and heads to Aeryn's room so they can visit. He's got the food tucked in his pocket again.

He knocks quietly and waits.

She answers the door, sees who it is, and lets him in without a word, settling back into a cross-legged position on her bed.

"Hey," he says slowly, setting the sea monkeys on her desk. "Thought you might want to see the little guys. I brought their food so you could feed them."

Re: After Cameron can_be_more March 12 2006, 22:53:52 UTC

"Thanks," she says quietly, looking up just to watch them from where she's sitting.

Re: After Cameron whitedeathpod March 12 2006, 22:55:30 UTC

John kicks her door closed with his foot and puts their food next to their tank. "Everything okay?"

Re: After Cameron can_be_more March 12 2006, 22:57:11 UTC

She considers how to answer that for a moment, and shrugs. "Nothing's different," she says.

Re: After Cameron whitedeathpod March 12 2006, 22:58:45 UTC

"You weren't this quiet the other day," he says. "What's happened?"

Re: After Cameron can_be_more March 12 2006, 23:03:17 UTC

She could shrug again and not answer, but she knows that isn't productive, and all it will do is make her feel four years old and stupid. "I found weapons hidden in the Prowler," she begins.

Re: After Cameron [NFB] whitedeathpod March 12 2006, 23:08:15 UTC

John frowns at that. "Weapons? You brought some back with you?"

Re: After Cameron [NFB] can_be_more March 12 2006, 23:10:21 UTC

"Apparently. They don't exactly give you things like that while you're under arrest." Not that she isn't glad to have them.

Re: After Cameron [NFB] whitedeathpod March 12 2006, 23:11:59 UTC

"Okay." He scratches his neck just for something to do. "Did finding them...upset you?"

Re: After Cameron [NFB] can_be_more March 12 2006, 23:15:24 UTC

"Not at all," she says, and if she's hesitant about saying more, it's because she really doesn't think he wants to hear about it. "They would have been put there by the person who helped me escape."

Re: After Cameron [NFB] whitedeathpod March 12 2006, 23:16:46 UTC

He frowns again. "Who helped you escape, Aeryn? A friend?"

Re: After Cameron [NFB] can_be_more March 12 2006, 23:22:20 UTC

"I suppose after all of this, he could be called that," Aeryn says slowly. "He wasn't my commanding officer, but one of a superior rank in a unit I was working alongside."

Re: After Cameron [NFB] whitedeathpod March 12 2006, 23:24:35 UTC

"Hmm." He leans against her desk and looks at her. "Did he ever tell you why he helped you escape?"

Re: After Cameron [NFB] can_be_more March 12 2006, 23:29:12 UTC

It takes her a minute to be able to answer that. "Because it was the right thing to do," she says, blinking hard. "Because if that was what happened to me, then I belonged somewhere else."
