Jay was mumbling and muttering in his sleep, though he was very nearly awake right now. He felt wet, but not the good kind, and cold, too. He didn't open his eyes right when he woke up so he imagined, incorrectly, that he had fallen asleep outside RST video again.

When he finally opened his eyes, he became conscious of the rain and mud all over himself, and sat upright, scratching his eyes. He looked around and saw...trees. Green stuff and trees.

"Shit Silent Bob that Bangladeshi Ganja we scored last night is the madness. We're not even home." He expected no answer, after all Silent Bob wasn't big on the speaking thing; but when he looked around again, he realized no one was there. Jay stood up, trying to dust mud off his pants - yes, he's that stupid. He started walking away from where he'd been, only in circles. "Silent Bob? Yo Lunchbox! If you's taking a piss behind some tree and I come look for you and find you with your dick out, I'll fucking kick your ass!"

Silent Bob, however, didn't come out from behind any tree. And as Jay took a few steps back, possibly to appreciate how alone he seemed to be in a strange place, he tripped on something and fell on his back.

"AH! FUCK!" He screamed, pulling a small box from under his back. It said "survival kit" and "Vas Captio". "The fuck is this shit?"

"Seven seas?" Kaylee shrugged after her repetition of the ancient phrase. "My ship, Serenity, she flies. We were out in the Black, and then I was here." Spinning around slightly, she demonstrated by pointing with one finger where she had come from. "Well, there."

Something was not quite right here, and it was temporarily dampening her cheerfulness. But not quite enough to even bring her down to the level of 'normal' happiness of other people. Her gaze bouncing between the strange man and the strange woman, as if watching a dueling match. One hand went to her chin as she listened attentively to their conversation, looking for some sort of clue that could tell her where she was.

"Y-you're not human?" It was not so much fear, as much as a mixture of fear and curiosity. Mostly the latter. The only thing she had ever heard of that was not human was a Reaver, they used to be human. Long ago. Before they changed and became monsters. Although Laura Moon did not seem anything like the savage Reavers who plagued the 'verse. "I'm Kaylee Frye, you can call me Kaylee." It took a second, but she replayed what the woman had said, and blinked twice. "You can feel us? Like a Reader?"

Candy? With delicate movements, just in case she somehow broke the foreign little container, Kaylee opened up the package and withdrew one colored pill from its contents. With a small grin tipping her lips, she popped it into her mouth and her eyes widened. "Oh! This is good!"

"Verbena," Kaylee answered honestly, and when the reaction she got was not what she had expected, she elaborated. "Out on the Rim? The Alliance just set up a new metalworking factory there. They supply all the parts for the Alliance's use?" She had heard of neither Jersey nor West Virginia, but she did not know every town or city in the System. It was doubtful anyone did, even Mal.
