Meet N' Greet

[cityship]

Part of the crew might be gone, but life on the ship goes on. In fact, new people have woken up and, eventually, they've been spat out into the mess hall.

Maybe it's better to introduce them to some of the worst aspects of ship life first, right?

Anyway, the word is out that there's new people, and someone should probably go say hello. Before the n00bs mistake the glop for crew.

He obseves Rei for a moment. The ship is watching us? He looks from the walls to the ceiling then back at Rei. Talk about creepy. It was another thing for Ronon to hate about this place. Frowning in his usual manner, he slowly nods indicating that he gets it but doesn't like it.

"Jaime... I'll remember that. How many of us are here?"

"Enough to keep me from getting to know peoples' names. At least one hundred are wandering around, but there's the thousands of people trapped in the pods to consider too."

Rei clenches her fist thinking about the injustice of it all. "I'm still wondering why she'd need to abduct so many of us."

"That's what I want to know too. I think we need to rescue those people in the pods before we go. Some of them might have my friends trapped in them, judging from all the reunions happening in the room."

Ronon shifts uncomfortably. "Think we'll find out why we're here soon? 'You were chosen' isn't a good enough reason."

"A reunion's not likely for me, but I'll do what I can to help the others." The girl's abruptly seems to withdraw, arms folded and head twisted to the side. No, not likely at all when three out of her four closest friends are dead.

"We've been pestering her for a while with no answer. Talking isn't doing anything."

Ronon recognises that expression. He's worn it himself too many times to remember. "Sometimes people disappear from our lives but we live on for them. For their memory."

Ronon stands up straight. "I wonder why that is. Anyway," he extends a hand, "Ronon Dex."

Rei's head snaps up in surprise. She hadn't expected such a profound statement from the stranger. Instantly, memories of her friends start to flood into her mind. She pushes them back for later, unwilling to be overcome with emotion with the other around, but the brief image of her smiling friends warms her a little. "Every moment is for them," she whispers.

She stands and does the same, bowing her head. "Rei Hino. I guess I'll see you around?"

Ronon nods in reply. "Yeah, you will." And he means it, having enjoyed her company.

Ronon remained observant on his spot against the wall as she left to talk to another person.
