The shift in air is imperceptible at first. He doesn’t even realize that the ship has exhaled and hasn’t yet returned to its normal state of tension until he’s moved several feet down the corridor. The way the lighting seems to shift and angle in certain spots, casting long, featureless shadows across his hands and boots. The sudden, sharp outline of his own form, and then the shadow melts away into the flat, white space of the corridor once more. His shoulders are tense. Not with fear. No. This is something entirely different. A sort of creeping sense of unease that grows with each step he takes. If he were to stop right now, something would overtake him. Something that he has yet to even conjecture. The air is thick with the taste of metal, recycled and stale. He counts the hums in the wall panels as he walks, a familiar habit that serves to keep his heart rate from climbing. The ship answers him in some small way as he moves through its corridors. The ceiling drops several inches, and the hums in the wall deepen and take on a richer, fuller quality. For a moment, he’s forced to consider the possibility that the ship is pulling him in some direction, and that this felt sense of warning is merely a fancy of his own imagination. He pushes the thought aside and reaches out to touch the warm metal of the wall. It’s warmer than it should be. Metal just doesn’t run that warm to the touch. He takes a deep breath of the musty, stale air and continues on his way.
