paradisa | 001 [Dictated; Action]

[ The sound of rustling sheets, as if someone is frantically flipping through the journal. Kara is currently trying to figure out exactly how her journal works. It looks like a typical paper journal, right on down to its octagonal shape. But there was clearly more to it than that--it seemed to be a communication device. ]

Galactica, this is Starbuck.

[ She didn't expect it to work. Here she was, in some sort of fancypants room in some fancypants castle out of a children's book, on a planet with star constellations she couldn't recognize. Even if this book could broadcast anything she said...but she still had to try...just in case. Although it probably wouldn't to the right ~~people~~ toasters; but her surroundings were entirely too...foreign to be Cylon. Right? ]

Galactica, this is Starbuck. Confirm.

I blacked out. I was unable to shoot down the bogey. The storm it...[ should have destroyed her Viper. ] Look, I don't know where the hell I am, or where my Viper is, or how the frak I even got here. But I am ali--

[ She stopped right there, unable to continue. Was she alive? Could she say for sure? "I'll see you on the other side", she had said to Lee. Was this then...? ]

[Sigh. ] Well frak me...

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

...Oh. Yeah, I get it. Drinking the blood of innocents and all that. Scaaaaaary. [ In other words, she doesn't quite buy it. ]

Do you mean gravity? Because if you jump out your window, I'm pretty sure it'll put on a good show.

I don't drink blood any more, actually. I gave up three years ago.

I know what gravity is, thank you, and I don't particularly want to test it out.

You what? Don't you need that to live, or something? [ Now she's really skeptical. You're just one of those kids that likes to wear black a lot and act spooky, aren't you? ]

And hey that's fine with me...you just sounded like a skeptic, uh...

...what's your name again?

No. So long as we transfer the addiction onto something else, we're fine. [No that's Laci]

Corporal Maladict.

[ Oh, now this was getting interesting. A vampire that was a corporal ~~well the fleet had a cylon for a lieutenant, so.~~ ]

Like booze? Sex? Drugs? [ All great vices to have. ]

Coffee.

[No shut up, it's totally an awesome vice to have]

Just coffee?

[ Wow, that's boring. Sure, Kara loves coffee too but...boring vice. ]

Well, coffee and cigarettes.

That I can appreciate. Though I prefer cigars, myself.

[ And could sure use one right about now...]

Ah cigars. A rare treat for me, really. Army doesn't really make them readily available.

Well that's a shame. Tell those frakkers to get with the program.

Speaking of. This wishing thing everyone's been telling me about. I can use that to get smokes, right?

Don't think they'd appreciate that all that much.

Sure, if you want to. Depends on if you want to rely on the castle for things or not.

Why? There a catch or something?

I don't know, personally I think were will be one day, some disagree. Your choice.

I hope the motherfrakkers don't turn us all into frogs.

[ Might be worth ~~stealing~~ procuring her own smokes, then. ]

And another thing--where's the bar?

[ Priorities... ]

I think that's just a wizard thing.

Which one? We have several.

...The one closest to room 324.

That would be the Death Match, then. Go down a floor and you're there.

[ Death Match? Sounded like her kind of bar. ]

Where are you? Want to join me?

I don't drink...alcohol.

Give that up, too?

[ HOW CAN YOU NOT DRINK BOOZE. ]

No, vampires in my world just don't drink it. It disagrees with us.

Oh, well that sucks.

You could still get a coffee or something.

Well, yes. Luckily most of the bars have coffee. In fact, the Lux does it even better.

Where's that?

[ Maybe she can get one of those fancy coffees with whiskey in it! ]
