[Sam Tyler] Well, hello there. starborn_scribe March 30 2007, 17:42:47 UTC
Sam hadn't meant to have a kip. After leaving the control room with its horror movies/surveillence video he'd grabbed a bite from the canteen, then retreated to the room in which he'd awoken. He poked around long enough to ascertain that he shared the room with DCI Hunt, and that neither of them had many belongings. (Another layer to the mystery,) Sam had sighed. Then he lie down to shut his eyes for a few minutes.

Judging from how the lights had dimmed and his stomach rumbled, a few minutes had turned to hours. Getting up and visiting the loo brought a sense of deja vu from the morning. Sam ignored it the best he could and set off for the canteen.

When he rounded the corner just before the canteen's double doors Sam nearly collided with a curvaceous brunette. He jumped back with a chagrinned smile. "Pardon me, Miss...? Er, I don't believe we've met. I'm Sam. DI Sam Tyler."

He tried not to ogle. Really, he did.

Aeryn was getting frustrated. There were signs to the canteen that she'd started to see; but nothing showing her where she could wash her clothes.

In frustration, she'd bundled everything up in her jacket and held it under her left arm, her right hand automatically resting on the butt of her pistol.

~What was it John said?~ she mused as she walked these dingy corridors ~It'd be a bad idea to try and take that pulse pistol from you. Yes, maybe it would.~

She decided to head for the canteen, but there were a lot of thoughts going through her head by now, all of them questions, but no answers. She knew her name, she sort of recognised John's face; but that's where the memories ended and snatches of nothing started.

When he rounded the corner just before the canteen's double doors Sam nearly collided with a curvaceous brunette. He jumped back with a chagrinned smile. "Pardon me, Miss...?

Sam's brow knit as he tried to make sense of the woman's speech. A few of the words sounded like English. The rest was unlike any language he'd heard. "Eyes" and "here" came through loud and clear, though.

Blushing, Sam shifted his gaze up to the gorgeous (and dangerous-looking even if she hadn't had a futuristic pistol on her hip) woman's face. "Yes, of course," he managed. "I, er, I'm afraid I don't understand you..." Sam stopped his rambling. If he didn't understand her, chances are she didn't understand him. (I need to find Daniel, or one of the others who speaks several languages.)

Keeping a polite distance between them, Sam gave her an equally polite smile. He took a step toward the canteen, motioning for her to follow.

"Tyler", she called, trying to stop him running off. "Sam Tyler."

She knew that he would likely be stunned by her understanding of his name, but she shrugged as he turned to look at her. Her face was vaguely apologetic, "Tara or Doctor.." she said, then continued "Chris." She was trying to tell him who she had encountered so far that understood her.

They entered the caf hand in hand, heads bent towards each other as they spoke in hushed tones. There was an intimacy about them that was evident to even the most jaundiced eye.

"... just the night before last by the looks of it. I mean some of it adds up but..." They looked up as if noticing the others in the cafeteria and Rose's words drifted off.

The Doctor grinned at Aeryn. "You're looking better. More refreshed at least. How's the arm?"

Sam stopped in the entrance to the cafeteria to look back at the woman. "Those you've met, I take it." She nodded as the strode into the wide room.

A familiar male voice called something unintelligible. Sam turned to find Chris and Rose holding hand and standing close. (Another happy couple.) Sam was surprised at the bitterness tinging the thought. He deliberately pushed it aside. "Chris, you speak her language?"

A grateful smile of relief snuck up on her as Aeryn saw the Doctor and Rose. The Doctor grinned at Aeryn. "You're looking better. More refreshed at least. How's the arm?"

"Much better, I think" she replied, "just a little stiff, but nothing some exercise can't heal. I might just be lucky to find someone to spar with, too."

Something had started to feel wrong with the way she was talking. It was as if something else was forming some of her words... but wasn't doing a good job at it. She frowned, then gestured to Sam beside her, as she continued to address the Doctor and Rose "Can you thank Sam? For showing me the way?"

Although the DI's original introduction had been somewhat stiltdd, she did find that she liked his humble attitude at least a little.

(OOC: Again, bold words are in English.. :D)

Thankfully Chris's and Rose's incessant banter didn't aggravate Aeryn any further. No answers were forthcoming, however, and they were obstructing the hall. "Let's continue this in the canteen, shall we?" He strode into the room, expecting the others to follow.

Chloe glanced again at Rose. She was awfully cute. "It's too bad you don't have a twin," Chloe said. "It would brighten the place up considerably."

Then she followed Sam into the 'canteen.'

Claude made an awful face at the other him, clearly saying what he felt about being called scruffy without giving in to cruder means.

He turned around to face May, his hands reaching up to run through his shaggy hair as he quickly schooled his face into something resembling 'friendly'.

"You can ask, yeah, but the answer's no. I don't remember a thing." He turned to blink at his 'twin'. "Does he?"

"No. Not bout myself. Blank page, that. But I have medical knowledge, a clever blue torch I seem to know how to use, knowledge of alien languages, and technology... when somethin' triggers it." The Doctor crossed his arms and grinned ( ... )

((OOC: Hey, it's 75 degrees Fahrenheit outside, I just got back in, I'll just respond in order. Rethreading to move the action to the cafeteria, hallway people can trickle in.))

"However, it's fantastic to be understood at last. Thank you for your help earlier."May felt a twinge of discomfort at the reminder of the stunts she'd pulled; she hadn't quite come to terms with what she'd been able to do quite yet. But the thanks was genuine. That alone sent a warm feeling through her, so strong it washed the discomfort away. Almost as if getting thanked for saving someone was a rare occasion, as if she'd done it before without even a simple "thank you ( ... )

Now that everyone had finally moved into the canteen, Sam followed May and Aeryn into the kitchen area. The aroma of marinara sauce made his stomach rumble. "Smells good," he told May. Something seemed to be missing, though. Sam started searching the cabinets for any sort of spices, feeling daft even as he did so.

Before long Sam found a shelf full of DHARMA-brand dried spices. He selected thyme and garlic powder from the collection, grateful that DCI Hunt wasn't about. (Flavouring spaghetti sauce? That would get me called 'poof' yet again.) Pushing the thought aside he turned to May and gestured at the pot of simmering sauce. "D'you mind?"

May shrugged. "Be my guest."

"Thanks." He stirred some thyme flakes and a liberal amount of garlic powder into the sauce. Once that was done he set the plastic containers aside then looked for the newest arrival. "Pigeon" slouched in a chair, arms crossed. "So, ah, Pigeon, where were you when the amnesia hit?"

"You're welcome. And if you're any good at improvising with food, I could use some help in that department."

"Really, I'm only any good when protein wafers are concerned. But I will try and help you." She offered a tired smile. "I can at least hold that for you" she gestured to the spoon and tried to make it a joke.

Except that the strain was starting to tell... that and the strangled noises emerging from her stomach.

OOC: Coming in from here.

For someone with very little in the way of conscious memory, Jon was sure he didn't forget faces that quickly.. and yet here were even more people he could have sworn weren't part of the great WTF gathering earlier on.*

Shaking his head, he waved for the scientist to follow him into the cafeteria. "Is McKay around? No? Oh. Anyone lost a Radek Zelenka? Ring any bells? And please tell me that's for general consumption."

In all his grouching earlier, he'd forgotten about food. Now that he could smell some.. let's just say his stomach was keen.

*OOC: has Jon met Hiro, John or Aeryn yet? I'm pretty certain he hasn't met Claude..
