If Faye hadn’t known better, she would have thought that this was Earth. It seemed to foreign yet so familiar to her. Yet there were little things that reminded her that this was some place odd. The people were too stiff, and the men didn’t give her a second glance. It was more than a little disturbing.

She had waited in line because that was what everyone else was doing. With little more than a “welcome to Paixao, Alice!” she was given a computer-like device and a brochure, then led into the… city. Also disturbing was how they had simply accepted her word - Faye wanted to see if they’d ask for some sort of identification. They hadn’t, and she had entered without difficulty.

Jet. It had to have been Jet. There was no other reasonable explanation for this. Except, that is, if she had been cryogenically frozen again. She highly doubted that, so Jet was the one to blame. He must have dumped her here while she was asleep. Some backwater planet she had never seen before seemed to be the perfect way to get rid of her.

“We were getting along so well, too,” Faye sighed, crossing her long legs as she sat on the grass. Well, it had looked like grass, from a distance. Upon plopping down, Faye had discovered that it felt a lot like… plastic. That was new.

After Spike had left on his suicide mission (Faye scowled a little as she reflected), Faye had decided to stay with Jet on the Bebop. It was kind of lonely with only the two of them, but things weren’t too bad. There were always bounties to hunt. Faye had been keeping herself busy.

In fact, she was tracking down some idiot that had robbed three banks in two days on Mars. She remembered cornering him in an alley and finding out that he was just some punk-ass kid. Regardless, she had thrown him in the Red Tail and had flown back to the Bebop.

And then… ?

Faye rubbed her head angrily. “I’m not getting anywhere with this! This is insane, even for Jet’s standards! What did I do to deserve being abandoned in this dump?!”

She didn't give a damn about how loud her screeches were. No money, no transportation, no familiar faces. All she had was some dinky computer. Still hissing like a cat, she jerked it open and began to type furiously.

Jet could have at least left her some cigarettes.

((Sorry about my slow-ness~))

Blue couldn't help but sniff the area around, as indiscretely as possible. When she wasn't very discrete the first time people stared at her and called her crazy. No. Not dealing with the stupid intelligence of humans again.

Though that wasn't exactly true. Not all humans were stupid. Slaves to Jagara... slaves to Darcia... Bah. The Old Man was great, even though he wouldn't believe her about certain... things. And then that couple that wanted to go as far to Paradise as they could, just like Blue herself.

She wondered if they were here, too.

She snapped her head up and someone's crazy screaming. No one else really paid much attention to her for being crazy-like. Blue mumbled something in annoyance and then walked a careful, distant circle around the human and stopped on the complete other side of her, still with distance and mind. Careful.

"This place isn't a dump. It can't be. It's..." Tell a human the truth? Would she risk it? Maybe she was once a naive wolf who gave up her form in the old world anyway... Still... She didn't want to be the only one who knew. Even if she had to tell a non-wolf. "Paradise."
