[Jean grins and her eyes crinkle and this feels okay, like there are no dim, dark images trying to drag her down and suffocate her.]
It's great, isn't it? Chromie's a sweetheart.
[Her brow furrows, a little, as she considers exactly what to say. There's so much.]
Well, sometimes we set down on different worlds - we call them ports. Most of us can go out and explore, but if you fall of the boat...you end up a part of that world until we leave.
In breaches, the Barge - I guess it becomes the world, and we're all a part of it from the beginning.
Floods - I'm not sure what causes them, I guess some kind of weird cosmic debris, but they...change people. Turn them into animals, or kids, or people they love. Sometimes they make you spout out the truth, sometimes they make you burst into song. There's no way to predict when they'll happen or what they'll do.
