( closed ) lost research

who: Jim Kirk, Leonard McCoy, Peggy Carter, Re-L Mayer, Shai Ebbisaryn, Sans, Dick Grayson, Scott Lang, Yuuri Katsuki, Victor Nikiforov
what: a rescue mission
when: from May 15th through to the end of the month
where: abandoned area, along the river, the delta and the waterfalls; between the first and second walls
warnings: monster attacks, probably some injuries/blood, don't expect anything more than that; add any needed warnings on your own threads as needed, please!


Despite the risks, most of the journey was a fairly quiet one. A lot of hours walking, making their way along the riverside, trekking through the woods and across small clearings. When the sun set they'd set up camp somewhere, and as soon as it rose they got back to their feet and out towards the Delta underneath the waterfalls.

Jim made sure they had all they needed; maps, compasses, whatever devices that could help them navigate the terrain. As far as supplies went, they had plenty of covers and extra clothes to make sure they didn't suffer through the colder nights, but there were no luxuries out here. If it rained, they'd be mostly unprotected, and they could only shower and wash their clothes so long as they had the time and access to the stream of the river. There was plenty of food, hopefully enough to last them the round trip, but they also had a myriad of tools and weaponry needed for any hunting and scavenging so they didn't always have to consume from the food they'd brought along for the trip.

The creatures living out here were another concern, and on a journey this long, they were bound to run into something sooner or later. They should be packing enough weaponry to keep the team safe and everyone in one piece, though.

Hopefully, it would be worth it. Jim didn't even care if they didn't get their hands on any of that research— all he cared about was that there were people possibly lost and in danger out there, and he wanted to try and save them.

[ The peculiar skeleton who plagues their days with a seemingly inexhaustible bad puns and dad-jokes (and inopportune naps) doesn't seem to sleep much at night; while never volunteering for watch unless forced to, Sans nevertheless can often be found sitting out and, weather permitting, watching the night sky too.

On this particular night, Re-L gets around to it first. ]


Wouldja getta load of that? Never gets old.

[ Sans stands a short distance away, having made perhaps surprising little noise on his approach for someone who is little more than bones swaddled in track shorts, a blue hoodie, and fuzzy pink slippers -- and is rattling the ice cubes in a fountain soda cup in one hand, complete with a bendy straw.

Printed on the cup, barely visible between his white phalanges, is the name of a fast food shop back at the quarantine zone. ]

[ The fact that she can actually see stars is pretty much what draws her out when she definitely should be sleeping. She'll not be as sharp when she's lacking sleep, but.. well, there's too much curiosity in her bones to try and not take a look while she can. Previous to this, she's only ever seen a form of the aurora borealis and while that had been fairly magical...

Actual stars and space dust just seemed a bit more interesting.

Without shaking the cup she might not have even turned around, but the noise spurs her to, at the very least, pay a little more attention, brows furrowing as she turns to take a look at who she's seeing -

Oh, Sans. For a moment the cup doesn't really register, and she responds rather calmly. ]


I imagine it will eventually. Just not... right now.

[ He takes that even tone for a sign it's safe to approach, so he shuffles forward, slippers crunching over old leaves and vegetation blanketing their campsite. Much as Sans had been lining up for a joke about how the view was really 'out of their world', her answer takes the wind out of those proverbial sails.

Not one to really put a lotta effort into much, Sans's reply is a noncommittal: ]


Maybe, maybe not. I waited my whole life to see somethin' like this.

[ Without waiting for an invitation, he just parks himself. Yeah, right there on the ground. ]

[ The slippers were about one of the most ridiculous things she's seen on this trip if she's honest, but when it came down to it, it's his prerogative, and if he wants to die on the hill of wearing his stupid slippers, then he's free to it. Though she wasn't entirely sure how one does away with a walking, talking skeleton, but there's probably a way and it's most likely through his skull. Not that she was going to attempt, but it's just something she wonders from time to time. Meeting people of all kinds was a new thing for her, naturally, so the kinds of questions that came to mind for her probably seem...

Well, weird as hell if sh were to put voice to them. Thankfully she doesn't for now, instead focusing her eyes forward for the moment, angled slightly upward.

Saying he's waited his whole life, though - it gets her attention. She turns for a moment to look at him, as if waiting for it to be some kind of angle, before : ]


How so? Were there no stars where you're from?
