M.I.A.
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. She was doing her best though. Kayla had shot out of the damaged airlock, spinning vertically and the video feed allowed us to watch her in a repeating tableau. Her face kept coming back into view and in the dead silence of the bridge, we watched her, the spin taking her face, in the helmet, in and out of sight. Nobody doubted that she was screaming and whatever the dynamics of sound in the vacuum of space, and an apparent total loss of communication through her comm connection, we all ‘heard’ her screaming. As she spun away into the vacuum, no one pushed the button that would have kept the image in focus, repeating the image of her silent screaming with every turn of her body.
