But I'm only human (open)

Who: Rey
What: settling in and stuff
When: throughout June
Where: different locations in Trench

Content Warnings: possible discussion of child abandonment, war stuff, will add more as needed



i. Sanguine Station (the first few days after arrival)

Remembering who she was was easy. Coming to terms with the reality of this place was harder. She spends a few days at the inn, pouring over the journal that had been given to her along with other items. There were others who seemed to be in similar straits, and if anyone approaches her while she's sitting at one of the tables in the inn with the journal in front of her she'll speak with them.

ii. exploring (anytime)

Once she's quietly freaked out enough at the inn Rey sets out into the city. She finds herself in Willful Machine, walking through the shops and pausing to look at anything shiny that catches her eye. She likes to touch things though she makes no attempts to buy anything.

She is surprised when she finds a shop selling old bits of machinery and wires, taking more time in there than anywhere else. In her mind she's cataloguing everything, how many portions certain parts would have gotten her back on Jakku. Part of her is still the starving scavenger girl, even if she's tried to grow beyond her.

iii. house hunting (towards the end of the month)

The inn was comfortable enough but Rey needs her own space. Part of her had been looking from the first day, but so much of the Trench seemed loud or crowded, both things that Rey enjoyed, but on her own terms. She needed something quiet for her own space, and after almost an entire month of staying at the Sanguine Inn she found a small victorian-style bungalow at the end of a road of homes mostly overgrown by vegetation in Crenshaw.

It was big enough for her to park her speeder that had somehow appeared on the beach not long after she had, and had a little shed out back that had an old workbench that looked like something she could repurpose into something useful.

The yard was overgrown with weeds, so after moving her meager belongings in she got to work in cleaning up the yard.

iv. wildcard

"You knew him back home?"

They can circle back to the 'feeling she's gone mad' bit later, if they want or even need to. That's a common feeling, at the very least. But the information provided about her crying in front of Luke...

"Luke Skywalker- he's from your time?"
