And that isn't everything but it's more than enough. I'm done. If I stay on the fucking ground long enough maybe kicking me while I'm down there will stop being fun.
He pulls on a t-shirt and scrubs his hands through his hair before he answers the door, though nothing can quite shake off the impression of someone who hasn't really slept properly in a few days.
The cabin isn't much to look at. It's sparse and simple, with very little about it to indicate who it belongs to at all. The couch has a few claw marks in the front of one of the cushions and the small table in front of it has a neat stack of five empty (used) foam coffee cups. The bed is entirely unmade, and there's an open book pages-down on the pillows.
From Earth, then. It hasn't really mattered much here, but Alexei's knowledge of Earth comes mostly from movies and things like this. The lack of interest was clearly entirely fake, as he focuses on the screen and listens to the oddly soothing voice of the narrator.

Date: 2025-04-24 11:11 am (UTC)This place has a way of encouraging friendships and then taking them away.
I'm not leaving you alone, but I'll let you be by yourself if you want.

Date: 2025-04-29 01:07 pm (UTC)Jacob lived in a hotel room, so he doesn't quite notice anything too unusual about it. He understands the need for it sometimes.
He sets the player on the table in front of the couch.
"Well, come on. This is the distraction. It's a movie player. Brought a couple of documentaries."
no subject
Date: 2025-04-29 01:10 pm (UTC)He drops into a corner of the couch and pulls his legs up, wrapping both arms around them and huffing out a breath.
"Fuckin' nerd."
As if he doesn't like documentaries.

Date: 2025-04-29 01:12 pm (UTC)"Yeah, fuck you. They're good."
He settles on the other side and starts the movie.
"This one's about the arctic ocean." He picked it specifically.
