1. To be fair, I didn't know s/he wanted to sleep with me.
2. I looked into your soul, didn't I?
3. I hate to be dramatic but if we landed on yet another sand planet it would be far too soon.

to be fair, I have been trying to avoid desert planets for several reasons. but if Janus thinks we can cut a few hours by doing it, might as well.

The windy season is steadily approaching in most of them on this side of the system. Dust storms aren't exactly our friends.

[orionids]

fair point. consider that last statement amended. we shouldn't have any reason to be going in those directions unless something absolutely pressing comes up.

[shorttermed]

Let us not be reckless this time. The repairs last time were costly.

[orionids]

trust me, I know. I'm just glad that we were able to take a few jobs here and there to cover those costs.

[shorttermed]

I may have a lead on a bounty, speaking of.

[orionids]

oh? well, I'm all ears.

A quack has swindled money from the poor of Nayara. If we find him and he returns their money, we're promised a hefty sum for our efforts.

i like how bright they are but i can see how they wouldnt be for everyone
the sand kinda gets everywhere huh

[shorttermed]

It's coarse and spreads everywhere like a disease!
There isn't a bit of shade to be found on these planets either.

[firstmagnitude]

just stand behind me i cast a pretty long shadow

[shorttermed]

You
You're offering to be my shade?

[firstmagnitude]

yes!

[shorttermed]

I am unsure as to how effective this will be but I appreciate your offer. We shall test this when we're on ground again.

Thank you.

[firstmagnitude]

im not good at stealing like jan and siri
and i cant just buy you things like ras
so
you can just stand behind me and ill protect you

[shorttermed]

I admit I need more protection than the others do. How shall I help you out in return?

Are you talking about those weird fruits you brought back from RPI-Cereus?
Because yes you exactly predicted my tastes

If you're not talking about that... the answer is uhh I dunno yet.

[shorttermed]

Aha. I thought you might. They were shaped strangely but the scent was too intoxicating.

[quatrain]

Yes! You know I like things that smell sweet.
Did you eat any? You checked them for side effects and stuff... right?

[shorttermed]

I haven't yet. I'm looking into how I might react to it...
The smell is quite tempting though.

[quatrain]

Well, I already ate mine and I'm fine.
Eat it!!
I can be at the ready with antihistamine injections.
Oh, and maybe somewhere for you to spit it.

[shorttermed]

Will you come sit with me then? I think this talk has made me rather wary.

[quatrain]

Yes I will come with my supplies! And also a knife to cut one into smaller pieces. Where are you now?

[shorttermed]

The main deck, if you please. I do have utensils but perhaps your knife is better suited!
