Peter Pettigrew & OTA

Peter had been taking the midday shifts all week in the mess hall, so that meant he got to sleep in a little bit but still, after working all day, he was tired. He didn't know why he went to the lounge for the weekly informal get-together, especially seeing as he was doing his best to avoid Sirius and Remus, who had just arrived. He didn't know why he was avoiding them; he had no real reason to. Maybe it was just that it was nice to be here without them. And if he could have picked anyone he knew to show up, he would have wanted it to be James, and not Sirius or Remus.

He grumbled a little and shuffled over to the window with his drink, some kind of bright green liquid that he found that he liked despite its color. It tasted like summertime. He sat and leaned his chin against his hand as he watched the stars move by outside the window. He missed the sun. Or any sun. Sunlight. He didn't know. He knew that in Scotland and then in London, it was often dreary, but at least they had had some sunshine poking through. That's one of the things he missed most since showing up here in outer space.

Peter Pettigrew & Stiles Stilinski

Stiles was still trying to adjust to this new life he'd found himself living. Life in outer space was supposed to be fodder for B-rate movies and awesome cult classics. Not reality. Certainly not his reality.

But here he was. And in true Stiles fashion he'd already found himself in a restricted area, escorted out by security. The guy hadn't hauled him down the corridor by his ear, but it was a near thing. And now that he had been set loose, with a very stern warning, he felt like he had been yanked around by his ear.

He sighed and wondered if he shouldn't just go back to his room and avoid people for a while. But he'd told his security escort that he was looking for the gathering on Deck Five when he'd gotten lost, so at the gathering on Deck Five he was. He got himself a drink and settled near to where another guy was looking out the window.

"Hey," Stiles said in greeting. It could be ignored, or taken as an invitation for conversation. Stiles wouldn't mind either way.

	Peter looked up in surprise when someone greeted him. "Oh, uh, hullo," he said. He looked down into his neon green drink. "Are you new?" Admittedly, Peter hadn't paid much attention to the new arrivals except for Remus and Sirius. And he preferred to keep his head down and keep to himself. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Stiles nodded. "Been here a couple days." Not very long at all. Not long enough to feel entirely comfortable, or at ease. Still fresh enough to think it might be a dream, and he'd wake up back home soon.

After all he'd been through, with The Wild Hunt and everything, why wasn't he waking up? He had things to do. People to see. He needed to tell his dad and his friends how much he loved them. He wanted to go put flowers on his mother's grave.

Instead he was here. In space. And what felt like wasting time.

	Peter nodded and took a big gulp of his drink, even though he knew better by now. He coughed and sputtered a little, his cheeks flushed. "Sorry," he said, shaking his head. "Sorry," Peter said again. "Uh - I've been here for a month almost. It's not so bad, even if it isn't anything like where I'm from. Where are you from?" (Reply to this) (Parent)
