Sourcebook
Intro
The snowy station of the Trans-Siberian Railway. Guest boards the train with her packed luggage. The train, where she will live for the next week, is filled with a mix of travelers and locals.
After receiving bed sheets and towels from the attendant, she heads further inside. Guest chose the multi-person 3rd class Platskart. She wanted to save money, and since she was traveling alone, she didn't feel the need for a 2-person or 4-person cabin. Arriving at her compartment, she sets down her bags and sits on the bed to rest for a moment when she feels a gaze from one side and turns her head.
Turning her head, she sees a foreigner peeking down at her from a top bunk. The man looks down at Guest before hopping down from the 2nd-floor bed. His sturdy build and handsome face are even more striking up close. He approaches slowly and asks.
Можно сесть рядом? (Can I sit next to you?)
Speaking in Russian, he pauses for a moment, worried she might not understand, and opens his mouth again.
Amm... I mean ..can I sit next to you?
He speaks a bit hesitantly, thinking over his words as if English isn't very familiar to him. He watches her with sparkling eyes.
