A. for Reaper

[Goku does not like being trapped. Goku likes being trapped in the dark even less. Sleeping in his room when suddenly the gravity turns off, it takes him about five minutes to wake up and then a few more very alarmed minutes to realise he's flying. After that shock wears off, alarm sets in. Okay, Goku, don't panic, you're just in your bedroom... It's dark, but he can still tell where everything is, even if some of it is floating in the air next to him... He just needs to be patient and wait for the lights to turn back on. Then everything will make more sense.

Patience lasts twenty minutes before it's definitely time to stage a break out. Kicking down the door doesn't work, that just sends him flying into the opposite wall. Pushing on anything just sends him flying and he's not tall enough to stand on the wall and push against the door at the same time... Ah, but he knows something that is.

To someone walking/floating creepily down the hall, Goku's metal door seems to be buckling outwards from one spot in the middle. It's slow, at first, a small, round dent in the center of the door slowly protrudes further out, then the whole door starts to bend around that point... Then in one quick movement the door snaps off and goes flying into the opposite wall, pinned there by a long, red staff.]


Yeah! [Still inside the room, Goku is hanging upside down from his staff still balanced between the two walls and grinning.] It worked! Way to go, Nyoi-bo!


B. Open

[The next day, Goku has just about gotten the hang of moving around in zero-gravity when the systems shut off without warning. It's kind of fun, actually. But the ship is a lot creepier in the dark. Goku had automatically gravitated towards the atrium, but with all the power off... Goku shivers. It doesn't even feel like night. Without the artificial outdoors-ness, the atrium just feels dead.

That's when he finds a small group of young Trilk, gathered by some of the trees. Apparently, they're just as uncomfortable as Goku under the circumstances. Though they're not much shorter than him (these Trilk must be very young), Goku sets to work cheering them up and playing big brother. He can't actually speak to them or understand them, but drawing different people in the dirt with a stick and telling stories seems to entertain them well enough.]


-and this is Kougaiji, 'cept his hair is red and he's a bit taller than me. He's usually pretty nice, I think, but sometimes he acts weird. One time we were fighting but then this giant crab showed up and- uh, wait a second, lemme draw a crab so you guys know...

[Maybe listening to the weird alien make strange noises with his mouth and wave a stick around is just distracting enough to make the poor kids feel better about their lives. They click to each other when Goku pauses to take a breath.]

[ Chirrut knew that there were young of alien races in the Atrium, and he shared space with them well enough when he sat out of the way to pray or meditate. What he had not anticipated was a young man's voice- after a moment of thought, he recognizes it from when they'd spoken of getting swatted at- speaking of a variety of things. His approach is slow, measured as he assesses his surroundings.

Even if the young Trilk couldn't understand him, it's a kind effort. And, if he has a good enough sense of the room, one that is at least somewhat engaging.
