Sonia, her nerves still settling, allows Wash to help her get halfway upright before she lets out a breath and gives him a put out little look, because he's the one with the fresh leg injury and here he is, trying to take care of her all the same. She can't expect anything else from Wash, she knows.

"I'm fine — oh, Wash, don't try to move around on that leg," she says with a touch of exasperation, hoping her mind will stop spinning long enough for her to get her bearings. She shakes her head, turning her attention to his leg, to see if the field dressing is still holding. "I...don't know. I remember the ship being hit, and the Star Gate — "

She bites her lip. The Star Gate was damaged beyond repair, and Wash was trapped on Barrayar. She looks back up at him helplessly. 

"I don't really understand the science behind it, but from what Dr. Niadem said, this shouldn't be possible." Sonia glances around, hoping some delayed sense of familiarity will set in, but it never comes. There's only the lingering cold nausea of jumpsickness. "I have no idea what planet this is, or how many wormholes we've jumped. I don't think I've ever had jump lag like this."

They seem to be in the middle of nowhere, but if they can find people — if they can get to a shuttleport, they could...what? Get back to Barrayar, with the wormhole route from Komarr still blockaded? It hasn't yet registered with Sonia that this place might be familiar to Wash.
