[She has a feeling she might regret asking this, but since her memories are slowly coming back, she wants to hurry them along.]

Is there anyone on board who was familiar with Sam Winchester?

[Private to Perry]

If you are quite finished sulking, I would like to offer you a suggestion.

Why the fuck not? You don't even remember half the shit that's happened to you on this boat. Why don't you just go home and leave me to my goddamn afterlife in peace?

Because this isn't your afterlife. And I doubt it will be particularly peaceful. Your concern for my memory is noted, but it is returning.

I believe you would be better suited to working in the gym.

Yeah, wel-

The gym?

Indeed. I presume it would involve the upkeep of the gymnasium, and you would likely have ways to occupy your free time there. Are you interested?

It's just upkeep? Would I have to talk to anyone or- [NO WAIT. SHOWING EMOTION. :|]

I will speak with the warden in charge, but I believe it would be relatively simple. [THEY ARE IRONICALLY ALIKE. :|]

Geez. [Oh, have the fakest of laughs.] I'm not worried about it being too complicated for my little jock brain to handle. I just don't really feel like explaining basic exercises to a bunch of weak-ass criminals.

...

Tell you what, you take me to this magical fucking bar I keep hearing about, and I'll do it.

[Hm. Hmmmm. She pauses for a moment.]

Very well.

[AND NOW SHE CAN SEE HIS BUDDING ALCOHOLISM.]

Sooner rather than later, ET.

T'Pol.

[OH JOY. THIS WILL BE MAGICAL.] Is tomorrow night acceptable? [And then maybe PORT will put it off, unless you'd rather backdate?]

[Oh, T'Pol. Way to ruin a joke.] Yeah, I know. It's the name of this litt- Y'know, never mind. Forget it.

Sure. Tomorrow. [Yeah, he wishes it was today. :| ANNND. I really don't mind... Do you have a preference?]

I have seen the film. That creature bears no resemblance to me. [Oh, the 'classics' she had to sit through. :|]

Very well. In the mean time, I will set up the job for you. [After? She might drink with him then. :c]

Except for the not-being-human thing.

Let me know who else works there. [Good reasoning. PS: he probs won't make a port post for her until like, ghosts fuck majorly with his shit. So if you want them to talk sooner, she's gonna have to initiate. :C]

Humans are far from being the only species in the galaxy. The sooner you come to terms with that, the better. [Sounds good. I'm waiting for inspiration. She'd just lineface so hard. :|]

[He...hasn't mentally connected her type of alien with Triangle-type alien. So that's handy for the moment.] Yeah, yeah, save me the anti-racism speech. It's just fucking weird.

[He's pretty much doing the same right now. :|]

[It helps when they're humanoid, and not thready white things.] And xenophobia is not 'weird?'

[Best defense mechanism ever. :|]

[It was only after they'd grown into Triangle-shaped creatures running around on tentacles after they hatched out of Fatty Patty that he even thought of them as "alien", so. Yeahhh.] Xenaphobia's the way of the world, lady. Or the galaxy. Whatever.

[...Oh I'm so looking forward to getting to that part. :|] It frequently is not.

[It is a cringey part, that's for sure. Among many others. :C WHERE ARE YOU UP TO?]

It is where I come from.

[I HAVEN'T STARTED YET. I have a library book out I have to finish first. :c]

Do you believe that judging others by their appearance is morally correct?

[AH, you have yet to experience the weird horror/disgust/fascination mix of the story, then. :|]

Do we really have to go into the deep, philosophical shit?

[No, not yet. :|]

It is a simple question.

[You are in for a treat. :|]

Maybe, but it's a loaded one.

Do you feel unequipped to answer it?
