[When Abigail wakes up, she isn't afraid. She isn't even concerned. She knows that this isn't the room she's used to, but she knows, too, that it's sort of hers and she has a right to it. So she springs out of bed, inspects it from top to bottom, and then heads out to explore the Barge.]

[There's a confidence in her that might surprise those who know her well as an adult. She investigates everything as if it belongs to her, spending a while on the deck looking at the stars and (loudly, incorrectly) identifying constellations. When she's done there, she curls up in the library with a stack of books almost taller than her, some on space (since that seems to be today's theme), some on anatomy, and some science fiction books, because that's basically the same as space.]

[In the end she gravitates towards the kitchens, where she inexplicably feels the most comfortable. She stays through lunch shift and well into the afternoon, investigating, tidying, wiping down surfaces.]

[Soon enough, she has a question.]


voice

I've been paying attention to the kitchens, [she says in a lofty voice, commanding attention in the way that only children often do.] And I need to know something.

Where does the food come from? It has to come from somewhere.

private } admiral

Excuse me, Admiral. I need to know where the food in the kitchens comes from, please.

Oh.

[She frowns at that, because, wow. Sad.]

You're not alone right now, though. Because I'm here.

You are human. I am... something other.

[Because it's fun, obvs. Scott just grins down at her.]

It's okay! There's a slide I think....hang on!]

[His head vanishes as he crawls back along the top of the shelf; there's silence, then a muted whoooo! and he tumbles out of a well hidden hidey hole just beyond the book case.]

[She looks on a little disapprovingly. She doesn't think there should be slides in libraries.]

Make sure to be quiet in the library. It's a library.

I don't know. There isn't a name for what I am.

[ She thinks about this a moment. One thought does creep its way into her mind. ]

I think... humans might call me Goddess, or child of God, sometimes.

[Of course Barbara got to the library eventually. She's currently carrying a towering stack of books, moving as carefully as she can.

It's not enough. The moment she stumbles, all the books come tumbling down on top of her.]


Mmmph.
