"Oh," Darcy wiggles the fingers of her right hand at him in greeting, mouth quirking up. "So you are him. He is you. You follow me. All alien doubles are currently hypothetical, but aliens in general are not."

She considers him for a moment, and something in her back straightens slightly. This is probably a dream, but he sure isn't acting like it is. "This is a space ship, but it's only alien in the most general sense. Guy at the bar told me it's called the USS Enterprise, which is what I kind of figured but it never hurts to check. It's based out of California. It's the 24th century, if you take her word for it. And I kind of am, right now, because I don't know why he'd lie about it. People might lie to you about that sort of thing, but I'm just an intern. A... science intern. Assistant."

Not that Jane is actually doing any science right now. She considers this, and doesn't revise her self-description.
