arrival, complete, day 12, ianto jones, sidney prescott

Who: Sidney Prescott and Whoever Decides to Play Greeter (Ianto would be awesome but someone nice please :) )
What: Arrival Post Scream 2
When: Day 12, 6:00am
Where: Somewhere Outside
Rating: TBD
Status: COMPLETE

After Sidney Prescott gave more statements to the police about having to kill in self defense she dozed off on the sofa in her tiny condo. That was when the planet decided to grab the pretty horror movie sort of target and plopped her somewhere on the beach. That was when Sidney came to and came to realize she was not in her condo or even in a building. Of course out of habit she felt for her hidden gun and realized it was not there. So she did what anyone in her shoes would have done, dove under some trees and watched the scenes around her.

"I guess it could be worse, Ghostface could be after me again" Sidney mused under her breath. But beyond the landing and sand in her hair she was otherwise in one piece, minus a few bumps and bruises of course. Ok, plus her clothes had taken a tiny bit of a beating in the process. But for now she was hidden among some trees and well after Ghostface has every reason to be scared out of her wits. So she did the one thing that made sense without her gun, she gripped a stick.

(tiny ooc about the stick: from what I could figure from the films Sidney is a prime choice for PTSD and the stick is just her reaction to landing here. so be ready greeter)

Now that the storm was over with, Ianto had taken to exploring a bit outside. The place was quite nice and Ianto felt he wouldn't completely hate staying here. He just hoped it wasn't forever.

He'd gone to the beach, soaking in the quiet and peacefulness as he slowly walked down along the sand, staring out at the water. In a way, it reminded him of being by the Bay back home. It brought comfort.

	Sidney was still ankle deep in a flashback when she spotted someone nearby. "Don't come near me you creep" she hissed, eyes blazing. She still had a death grip on the stick and by the looks of things it would not be a shock if anyone figured out she had just been dumped there by the planet. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ianto paused, frowning slightly when he heard someone speak. Turning around, he spotted someone attempting to hide nearby. "Hello?" he called out cautiously. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Dark hair poked from behind the tree,"Hi" came the shaken female voice tinged with an American accent. Sidney peeked out and she was ankle deep in a massive flashback, stick still in hand. "Ok no mask. So far so good" her eyes blazing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kingofcoffee 2008-08-23 03:34 am UTC (link)
	"Are... you alright?" He approached the young woman slowly and cautiously. She had a crazed look in her eye and a stick but Ianto wasn't worried about that. Compared to guns, aliens, lasers, and what else, a stick was nothing to him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	survived_scream 2008-08-23 03:38 am UTC (link)
	"How about just getting dumped in the middle of nowhere less than 4 hours after having to kill an insane killer in a ghostface mask in self-defense. No I'm no ok and I may never be" as Sidney slumped against the tree in defeat. "Look I'm sorry for the scare, just been living in fear of a killer for the last who knows how long" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

As soon as she said the words, Ianto got the vaguest feeling he knew what she was talking about... He felt like he'd been retconned, like he should know her, her face on the tip of his memory but unable to grasp it. He pushed the thought aside. She probably just looked like someone he'd seen in passing before. What with his memory, it sometimes happened.

Ianto didn't move for a moment, then slowly held out his hand. "I can help you," he offered.

The stick in Sidney's hand hit the ground at that same moment, part of her badly needing to hear that from someone. "Ghostface, still haunts me and my name is Sidney, Sidney Prescott. I was asleep in my condo and well you know the rest of the story by now" as she finally came clean. Her smaller hand reaching out, needing to regain that tiny sense of something she could not explain.

	"Ghostface?" Ianto asked curiously as he gently took her hand and helped her up. "What's that? Or who." He smiled, keeping his face friendly. "Welcome to the planet. I'll show you around... At least... the parts I've been to. I've only been here a few days." Ianto'd never told anyone about the planet before... He wondered if she would think he was insane.

"Ghostface is a serial killer, I've had to kill 2 different versions in self defense twice over the last 2 or so years" as Sidney told what she could of her story. "His thing was a mask that looked like a screaming ghost, kinda explains the name" as she realized this was not her condo. "Planet? Sounds like something out of a cheesy sci-fi movie, no offense. When you live in fear movies and tv become a friend" she was honest.

	kingofcoffee 2008-08-23 04:00 am UTC (link)
	Ianto laughed. "Yes, it does, doesn't it. It's all still a bit odd to me too," he admitted. "A serial killer? You've had a serial killer after you twice...?" Ianto sounded a bit incredulous but then, he knew anything was possible. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	survived_scream 2008-08-23 04:04 am UTC (link)
	"It just sounds like a really chessy late night movie for some reason and yes, twice over about a 3 year period. It's pretty hard to explain but I was always the target of choice" Sidney muses. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kingofcoffee 2008-08-23 04:28 am UTC (link)
	"Shall we go back to the main building? You can read the welcome plaque and then I can explain things a bit more." He motioned with a hand in the direction the housing buildings and main place were. If she wanted to elaborate, she was welcome to. Ianto wasn't the sort of person to ask constant questions. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	survived_scream 2008-08-23 04:40 am UTC (link)
	"Ok, guess there has to be more to this place than a beachfront crash landing" Sidney let Ianto led the way. She finally mused,"Guess I am more swered up than people think, I flipped out and grabbed a stick for pete's sake". (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kingofcoffee 2008-08-25 02:12 am UTC (link)
	"Well, if I had a serial killer after me twice, I know I would grab the nearest thing that could be used as a weapon to protect myself," Ianto noted as they walk. "Self preservation." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	survived_scream 2008-08-25 02:18 am UTC (link)
	"My usual weapon was a gun hidden under the bed but now that option is gone, that should explain the stick" Sidney admits. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kingofcoffee 2008-08-25 02:28 am UTC (link)
	"You shouldn't have any trouble here," Ianto told her kindly, hoping it was true. There didn't seem to be anything hostile, alien or not, running around so. As they walked, he studied her out of the corner of his eye. She looked young, around his age. Perhaps they had a few things in common besides having hostile people/things chasing after them.

	"Why do I have a feeling about that? Maybe my brain has been in fear mode a little too long" Sidney's eyes spoke more than words could. "I put life on hold, holed up along and can barely trust people" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Ianto was silent for a few moments, thinking about how to respond to that. He knew how that felt. However, he wasn't going to elaborate on why so he simply repeated his thoughts. "I know how that feels. I used to be like that. It took five people for me to trust again." First Lisa, then Jack after she was gone, then Tosh, Gwen, and Owen after Jack left. He didn't trust so easily still but he didn't completely close himself off.

	"My trust list went down to about 3 people, least till Ghostface killed Randy then it went down to 2" Sidney was thinking of Dewey and Gail mostly. "So me and trust, hard enough thing to face" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"As long as you have at least one person to trust, that's what is most important," Ianto said softly, thinking about the time he came to London. The only person he'd trusted was his mother, but that was something he could never tell her for her own protection. He hadn't had anyone to speak to about things, bottling them up inside.

With a pang, he wondered if he'd ever see her again.

	"I think you can offically add me to your tiny trust list" Sidney finally spoke. "You actually get what I'm going through on some level" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kingofcoffee 2008-08-29 01:29 am UTC (link)
	"I'm honored," Ianto said kindly, being polite. They finally stopped in front of the large plaque hanging up. Ianto held a hand up to it so she could read it for herself. "Here we are." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	survived_scream 2008-08-29 07:06 pm UTC (link)
	Sidney read over the plaque at least 3 times and her eyes said it all,"Ok, no offense but this really is starting to sound like a bad movie or me having a dream caused by something I ate". She then muses,"But in a weird way maybe this place has a reason for grabbing me hours after everything happened" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Ianto shrugged. "It took me at a very odd moment... but things worked out. I was waiting for someone to come back to me but found him here instead. He came from a different point in time; we all seem to be taken from different time periods," he interjected, "but now I know he still would have come back." A small barely noticeable smile slipped onto Ianto's face. "Things, so far, aren't so bad here... To be honest, it's a bit... dull when you're used to the lives we lived before we got here." 'We' meaning she and Ianto.

	"At least I'm not on the run from Ghostface here and we both have our stories" Sidney observed. "Maybe just maybe this place has a reason for yanking people like us, it sounds like this one movie Randy told me about once" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kingofcoffee 2008-09-01 05:07 pm UTC (link)
	"Hopefully you'll be able to find some peace here. It's a very nice place to relax when it isn't storming outside," Ianto commented. "It must have a reason for taking us. It seems like it's alive... I don't know why yet but there's got to be a reason." Unsure of what she was talking about, he asked, "What movie would that be?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	survived_scream 2008-09-01 05:14 pm UTC (link)
	"It's this really old movie we found on cable once, forgot the title at the moment" Sidney added. "But I did remember the tomatoes being alive of all things. As for this place you may be onto something". (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kingofcoffee 2008-09-01 05:33 pm UTC (link)
	"Attack of the Killer Tomatoes, perhaps?" Ianto questioned. "Or perhaps one of the sequels to it. There were quite a few." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	survived_scream 2008-09-01 05:37 pm UTC (link)
	"It had to be one of the sequals since the effects seemed to get better from the first one! But the plot was as lousy as ever" Sidney did crack a small smile. "I should explain, the MO of Ghostface was urban legends and horror movies so between me and Randy we know way too many plotlines". (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kingofcoffee 2008-09-01 05:47 pm UTC (link)
	"I see. Is Randy a friend of yours?" he asked. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kingofcoffee 2008-09-01 05:55 pm UTC (link)
	"Oh." Ianto was still for a moment. "I'm sorry. I know what it feels like to lose someone close to you." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	survived_scream 2008-09-02 12:33 am UTC (link)
	"You too?" Sidney decided not to push unless Ianto said more. "Between losing my mom and Randy I'm still trying to relearn things like trusting" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kingofcoffee 2008-09-02 01:45 am UTC (link)
	Ianto nodded in understanding. "I've lost quite a few people and been hurt by a few others... It took me a long time to learn how to trust again as well." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	survived_scream 2008-09-03 01:13 am UTC (link)
	"I'm in the same boat, me and trust are not exactly on speaking terms" Sidney was honest. Her eyes spoke more than words could,"I have nightmares, of Ghostface" (Reply to this) (Parent)

"Aaaaah, nightmares," Ianto said in a dry, sarcastic tone. "Lovely things, aren't they. I've been on more sleeping pills in my life than anything else." In his job, you couldn't afford to be tired on the job. There were tasks to be done, the archive to be kept upgraded, the Hub to be kept neat and in working order, coffee to supply, aliens to chase down... Sleep was needed and although he hated taking them, sometimes the pills were necessary in order to perform his job to the best of his ability.

	"So not fun and I was getting sick of even seeing a bottle of sleeping pills after the first few rounds of them" having been on at least 3 or 4 different kinds. "Let's just say I got really good at not sleeping to keep the dreams away, but life kinda took a hike in the process" spilling tiny bits of info about her time in emotional hiding.

	kingofcoffee 2008-09-06 11:27 pm UTC (link)
	Ianto nodded in understanding, silent for a moment before speaking again. "Would you like me to help you find your room? You should have one. I did when I arrived, even though I wasn't expecting one." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	survived_scream 2008-09-06 11:34 pm UTC (link)
	Sidney nodded,"This place is so big it screams "draw me a map!" but the gentle smile showed she was starting to let her guard down at least a little. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kingofcoffee 2008-09-08 01:47 pm UTC (link)
	After some searching that took some time, the pair managed to find Sidney's room. Ianto almost laughed at where it was. "You're right next to me," he said in amusement. "Should have just showed you where my room was first. If you need anything, feel free to knock. If I'm not there, then try room 202. It's just a few doors down this hall. I mostly stay there."

	survived_scream 2008-09-08 06:51 pm UTC (link)
	"Fate or the planet with a sense of humor after all" Sidney almost had to laugh as well. "I'll set up a board or something before too much longer but at least I know where to head if a nightmare does strike" since she knew it would happen before long now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kingofcoffee 2008-09-11 11:11 pm UTC (link)
	"Well, I'll leave you here so you can explore your room," Ianto said with a slight bow of his head. "I hope things go better for you." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Untill next time and thank you" Sidney spoke as she whispered,"As do I" before she parted. (I think we can call this done!) (Reply to this) (Parent)
