"...To see your new room?" She offered as she slid up behind you and gently placed her paws on your shoulders before guiding you out of the bridge. She walks you down a hallway and steers you toward a blank looking door which slides to the side, leaving an empty doorway for you to enter. The room is pretty basic, all of the walls look like they're made of titanium. There's a bed that is big enough for one of your 'captors' in the center of the room with covers and a pillow. There's also a sitting area and a desk that's built into the wall and looks as if it's made of the same materials as the wall as well. You find that there's also a small bathroom in your room, not unlike what you'd find in an airplane on earth but there's a little more space in it. You also find a couple of dressers integrated into the wall and a mirror hanging beside your bed.
"I know it's pretty basic," Riley sighs, "But it does the job right? This was actually a high speed transport ship that we bought off a salvage dealer. That's why it looks so barren. They traded mass for speed."
"I see..." You note as you continue to observe the room from the doorway.
"Well don't just stand there, make yourself at home!" Riley laughs before pushing you through the doorway. Once close enough she actually grips you in a bear hug and pins you against her body before spinning around and leaping backwards onto the bed. As she flops down on the bed she releases a fit of laughter, causing you to do the same. You both lay there for a moment laughing about the silly randomness of the situation. After your laughter dies down Riley flips you over so that you are looking at her face, "Feeling better yet?" She asks.
You nod your head happily, "I am... thanks Riley, I really needed that."
"Anytime," Riley replied before giving you a toothy grin and a playfully poking your nose with one of her claws.
Just then there was a knock at the door, shortly after which the door slid open and Tammy walked in, "So how's our little- Oh... Getting friendly now are we?" Tammy asked with a sly smirk on her face. From her point of view you were laying face down on Riley who was laying on her back.
You immediately turned red while Riley rolled her eyes, "Get your mind out of the exhaust manifold Tammy, the kid was depressed so I cheered him up," She explained as she gently rolled you off of her and stood up to speak to her friend.
"Oh I don't doubt that..." Tammy returned slyly.
"NOT LIKE THAT!" Riley snapped, her fur stood on end and her whiskers stiffened.
"Alright, Alright, don't get your tail in a knot..." Tammy laughed, "You two are still both fully dressed and the kid seems too innocent for that kind of thing so I believe you. I was just having a little fun is all."
"Did you actually have a reason for coming in here?" Riley asked.
"Two actually," Tammy replied. "I wanted to see how he was doing, and given that he looks more curious and confused than depressed I'd say he's doing well."
"And the other reason?" Riley pressed.
"Well 'Captain Rita' says that we're going to make a stop at the Cotoul station," Tammy continued before putting a hand on her hip and leaning against the doorframe.
