spaceship au again
ghost, who you'd been so curious about when you'd met him because he'd worn a mask the entire time you were interviewing for a position on the ship, and now avoid like the plague. he scares the shit out of you and the guilt you feel over it cannot be overstated, but you cannot look at him. most of his face is horrifically scarred, a combination of burns and lacerations that have mangled the skin, perfectly preserving the shadow of a facehugger that had clearly been pried off. which seems impossible, you've never even heard of someone surviving one of those things, but ghost walks around the ship (sans mask) living proof that it can be done.
you're just not sure if he's the one that did it, or if it was someone attempting to save his life, either way looking at him makes your stomach turn. which he clearly gets a kick out of considering the throaty "heh heh heh" that follows after you every time you duck your head and scurry away from him.
