[ the year makes little sense to bellamy, but the moment she mentions music, he gets it. he's learning all the bands, all the singers and writers who had existed long before the ark had been constructed. he hadn't been so sure if backstreet had been their proper name. he can't really remember any of the artists he had heard played sometimes on the ark. ]

Did you like them?

[medals]

they were okay! i think i liked them when i was in primary 5? i started listening to heavy metal when i started secondary school. were you listening to pop before the power went out?

[dominance]

I have no idea what you just said, but it sounds very you.

I was. Watching some documentary or music video. I wasn't paying attention until they played a catchy song. I thought maybe I could find it at the library, but they don't really have anything about boys who were in the back streets or whatever in the catalogue.

[medals]

okay i am going to explain the english school system to you, because i like you bellamy. pay attenion, nerd. you do nursery school until you're 4, right? then when you're 5 you start year one at primary school, until you're 11 at year 6. then you started year 7/secondary school until you're 16 or 18, depending on if you stick around for sixth form.

oh my god. when the power comes back on, i'll help you find them on youtube? they had this amazing tune called backstreet's back, the video is iconic.

That was a hell of a lot of numbers, Jem.

[ but he appreciates it. they hadn't exactly had that while on the ark. learning bits and pieces about earth, even if it isn't technically his earth, is enlightening. ]

[ there's a reason he had come to her, after all. even though she confuses him a lot, she's patient when it comes to him asking for clarification or an explanation on the stuff other people already know. ]

Where did they go?

[medals]

and we're still shit at math as a nation.

no one knows. were they around before? did we forget the backstreet boys? how could they have been back when ... we hadn't noticed them leave?

[dominance]

I thought you liked them. How could you not notice they left?

[medals]

did they go though? did they ever truly exist before 'backstreets back'?

[dominance]

This is why I'm asking you. You should report back. I need to know where they went and why.

[medals]

oh man do i need to show you cotton eye joe.

[dominance]

Why does Joe have cotton in his eye?

[medals]

you are too invested

[dominance]

Maybe if you cared about Joe and his narrative, he wouldn't have cotton in his eye.

[medals]

you are absolutely fucking with me now.

[dominance]

[ he's been fucking with her after he asked her about backstreet boys. playing the oblivious and naive space-man has really worked in his favour. ]

I have no idea what you're talking about.

[medals]

😈 this is more you

[dominance]

You think I'm cute? Aw.

[medals]

sorry i meant 💩💩💩
