"D'Accord," she agrees with a nod, and holds up five fingers.
"One, there is no escape. This whole place is like a giant fishbowl- there's a barrier a couple of miles out that can't be broken through, and no other way to leave. Except for excursions, but those are still in realms run by the Captain. Two, there is no going home. There's a version of you back in your world who is living your life for you. If we could escape, which we can't, going back to your own world would physically destroy you and maybe the world along with it. Everyone here comes from different worlds, it's a long story. Third,"
She shifts in place, having put two of her fingers down.
"There is no true death here. If you die, you just come back the next morning. Fourth, the motherfucker running this place is slowly draining us to power the ship. Eventually, this causes people to disappear and become one of the ghosts you'll see around the ship. I've already lost two roommates to it. Finally,"
She pulls the odd brick he probably found on his bedside table out of her pocket.
"This is a phone. You give me yours for a second and I'll make it so you can message me whenever if you have more questions and shit. Everything else you can probably pick up as you go."
