Now that we've exited Vespa's orbit, please make sure to re-acclimate your cabins accordingly, and take it easy for the next few days if you paid the planet a visit! Your muscles will thank you!

Additionally...



While I appreciate and support the message, I must remind our crew members, passengers, and... likely our Med Bay staff... not to vandalize EAA property. Especially with my face... Thank you.

Why not? Are you anti-sex?


Isn't that a bit vanilla? I'm not like suggesting an all species open orgy or anything but it's space... you're supposed to go out and mingle and stuff.


I love that show! Some of it's complete bullshit and lame. But some of it is totally real. You wouldn't believe the info videos they make you watch in certain courses at the EAA. I bet the nurses and doctors had to watch even more messed up ones.

[space_egg]

N-no, it's nothing like that! It's just an embarrassing association, which I imagine was the intent of whoever put it there...

I'm perfectly content "mingling" amongst my own species– I don't think that's terribly narrow-minded... Meeting and making friendships with other species is one thing... romantic entanglements is another...

Some of the reenactments can be more than a little traumatizing, if convincingly fake. And hm, I did, but only to a point. Once I was on-track for physical therapy, the life-scarring videos and lectures diminished significantly. One of the benefits of a "cleaner" medical career, if you ask me...

[shishido_ryou]

It's only embarrassing if you let it be. Don't let lame people make you feel bad about stuff, Oishi. Embrace it and make it your own.


Definitely narrow-minded. What if one of those friendships led to something more?


The reenactments are always so bad they're good.


Huh... I guess... but are you sure cleaner doesn't mean more boring?

[oshitari_yuushi]

Let me be the first to vouch for the benefits of a dirty medical career.

[shishido_ryou]

More fun, right?

[oshitari_yuushi]

Definitely.

[space_egg]

I'd rather scrub it off as I've been attempting to all morning. Damn permanent marker...

Then... I'd have to re-evaluate the situation as it came, though I doubt my mind would be changed. I have read star-crossed novels like that before, though...

That's being pretty generous, haha.

And I'm completely fine with boring. I much prefer 'boring.'

[oshitari_yuushi]

Odd, isn't it, how the rest of the staff have seen fit to merely watch your attempts rather than help?

Your choice of literature is fascinating, Oishi.

[space_egg]

I had noticed that, yes.........

You don't like romance novels, Oshitari?

[oshitari_yuushi]

Point proven.

Rather the opposite, actually.

[space_egg]

I do have some rather good ones if you're light on reading material at work...

[oshitari_yuushi]

Always appreciated. There's only a finite number of times I can reread DuMaurier before she starts to tire me.

By the by, are you whispering through text?

[space_egg]

That's a sentiment I can understand. I'll bring a few by tomorrow.

... I suppose I was...

[oshitari_yuushi]

I look forward to it.

Why?

[oncamera]

But what about your alien children, Oishi?

[space_egg]

They are, once again, not biologically-related, Fuji.

[oncamera]

I'd hope that would be true of any possible sexual partner. Incest is wrong, Oishi.

[space_egg]

Th-they are by no means "possible sexual partners" to me!!
