PORT ROYAL DOCKING PLOT : POST 1
At the university, Halloween was second only to April Fools' Day for people playing pranks on each other, so I woke up on Halloween morning ready to be on my guard. I figured whatever the station had in mind for us (if anything) it wasn't likely to be something I'd find funny, and I wanted to be ready for it, whatever it was.
It hadn't occurred to me that what the station had in store for us wouldn't be something that occurred on board. I hadn't expected the station docking announcement to play, and I sure as hell hadn't expected the world to dissolve around me when I was halfway to the hub to see what was up. I'd never transported before-- it had always been my choice, before, and I'd never planned on going anywhere the other guy might make a mess if I could help it-- but I had just enough time to figure out what the lurching feeling in my stomach probably signified before the station walls vanished.
When I blinked away the sun glare I found myself staring out a window at a bustling city full of people dressed like they were definitely not from 2012. "Well, this is... interesting," I said, turning around to the roomful of Proserpinians who'd apparently been selected to join me on my little day trip.

"I don't want to attract any attention. That worked pretty well for me the time we docked in Venice and I'm hoping it will work here too."

He pointed the kid toward the racks of men's clothes. "That's a good M.O.," he said. "Something tells me the station wouldn't look kindly on any of us getting found out." Though it apparently didn't matter one way or another what happened to them while they were off-board, if Amy's death was anything to go by.

"I've found that people tend to ignore everything that blends in. Where I'm from, that's a good thing. You don't want to stand out if you can help it."
