[ Okay, so in the grand spectrum of things, this could be a much stranger or worse experience for Harry Kim to have.

Alien prison? Nothing new there - and this one is much nicer. Trapped in a simulation? Also, not a unique experience. Bracelet monitor? Please, it's not even intrusive. Orange jumpsuit? Honestly, who could possibly care about what they're wearing in these circumstances?

All of that doesn't mean that he doesn't immediately set about figuring this place out, though. He needs to get out of here and back to Voyager. Even if it doesn't appear as immediately dangerous and malicious as other situations in which he's found himself trapped, he can't just settle in and stay here. So you can find this new arrival exploring every inch of the dome that he comes across, starting with sector 4, where he arrived. ]

[ Eventually, he turns to the network for information. ]

Hello? My name's Harry, I guess I'm the new guy, and from the looks of this communications network, it seems like we're all in pretty much the same situation here.

[ He pauses momentarily, pursing his lips and arching his brows. ]

So... this is some virtuality reality they've got running here.

[ That's one way to break the ice - but this is what he wants to talk about. ]

Certainly seems like a lot of trouble to go to for a bunch of criminals.

[ There's a small smirk there - he's managing to keep his cool so far. ]

And - well, it wasn't exactly my plan to show up, but thank you.

It does. It seems rather arbitrary.

No one of us planned on it. [Pretty sure.] But we're here. We should make the best of it.

That's always a solid strategy, I think.

So, going out on a limb here, I'd assume some attempt to figure this out and leave has been made at some point?

[Yenyoji is leaning back in a chair, feet steadying her from falling over somewhere off-camera, and she is holding the device above her head for the best possible angle.]

[Her ears tilt forward before relaxing again, and she beams in a bright toothy way. And she is very excited to share something with this newcomer.]


There's an entire blood bar for vampires.

[Oh yeah.] ... Also, well met! I'm Yenyoji.

[ The neat thing about having spent the past several years on the wrong end of the galaxy is that non-humans aren't that startling anymore. Of course, it never really stops being interesting when you encounter an entirely new one. He offers a smile back... ]

It's nice to meet you, Yenyoji.

[ ...though the smile is just a bit wary. ]

Um - where do they get the blood?

[Just as brightly:] I have absolutely no idea.

I presume from people, or beastkin, or voidsent. Those are the usual sources.

[She realizes suddenly how macabre this is for a greeting, and doesn't exactly care, but she also doesn't want to give the wrong impression.]

Oh, but I don't drink the stuff. I more use it for alchemy than anything! But on its own? No thank you.

[Well. That sure is formerly-fellow-ensign Harry Kim. Unfortunately, his video doesn't tell Chekov whether or not he remembers the City and, by extension, him.]

Ensign Harry Kim? Of the Voyager?

[Disappointment it is!]

I knew you—or I knew a version of you, I should say. [He should probably ease into this, especially since the Voyager crew took the Prime Directive fairly seriously. Should. Won't.] This was in a different prison universe. Captain Janeway and Commander Chakotay were there, also... and B'Elanna Torres, although I didn't know her well.

I'm Lieutenant Pavel Andreievich Chekov.

Most of the advanced ones do - especially if we're actually part of the illusion ourselves.

We don't have anything this advanced at home. Or even anything like this. Just video games... and those look really silly.

[ Thank you for filling out his Trekkie bingo card. ] Agreed. Even with confirmation, it's difficult to remember that it's all an illusion.

[ Honored to be of service, Reid. ]

It's definitely advanced. [ Even by his standards. ]

It makes sense that it feels real, though, if our presence here is part of the simulation itself.

Considering that reality itself relies entirely on our perception of it, it shouldn't be that surprising that we're tricked by this.

[ Harry doesn't initially get what she's asking - he'd begun looking in another direction first, and hadn't noticed the shop. So when he glances up at the question, he's visibly a bit confused. Then he glances over his shoulder - and sees the shop.

Yeah, don't mind the somewhat flustered look on his face when he turns back. ]


Uh - no. No, I mean... I -

[ So smooth, Harry. ]

No?

Welcome, new guy. I'm Kitty... the other one. It's a long story.

And, yeah... this pretty much surpasses most VR I've seen back home.

So, where are you from?

[ Other one? Well, okay then. ]

Yeah, it's definitely advanced.

[ Even by his standards - but he has to be careful about what he says, of course. He's starting to get the idea that not everyone here is from the same reality or point in time, which means prime directive rules are in effect - at least for now, just to be safe. ]

Originally? Earth... South Carolina.

[ More recently, well. That's a complicated question anyway. ]

Earth. So you're from a place that is aware of life on multiple planets, I'm guessing.

I'm from Earth, too. Originally, Illinois.
