This should prove interesting. If I might ask, what have former ports been like? I would appreciate some foreknowledge, whether they have been similar or not.

Severus, have you had any survival training? I would like to know where we stand.

Lieutenant Reed, are you planning to disembark tomorrow?

It might own Starfleet!

[acid_rayne]

For the most part, I believe so. Unless someone fell off one of the rides.

:O The mouse-eared horror!

[with_discipline]

But that is the only instance you are aware of?

Boldly merchandising where no company has merchandised before...

[acid_rayne]

It's the only one which comes to mind, yeah.

For the most part, they're generally horrific. Hence, why I hate us having them.

They're going to tm space, aren't they. ;_;

[with_discipline]

Quite understandable. Hopefully tomorrow will be more along the lines of this theme park.

Pluto ain't just a navigational waypoint, y'know...

[acid_rayne]

Ten-to-one odds we'll end up on a safari with giant man-eating plants.

And that'll be the good part.

THEY AREN'T ALLOWED TO BRAND PLUTO.

[with_discipline]

And the bad part?

Vulcans would have Mickey Mouse ears.

[acid_rayne]

That'll be the surprise...

One time, we wound up on an alien planet and almost completely got slaughtered by these things which bled acid. That or got impregnated.

Wasn't pretty.

D: Then humans would have nothing to be jealous of.

[with_discipline]

...Impregnated.

Does that include the males?

[acid_rayne]

Uh, anything with a hole, I think... You got to play kissy-face with a lobster thing and lo, the miracle of childbirth - right through your rib cage.

Now you know why I cringe, every time someone thinks taking a lucky dip on the cosmic wheel of torment would be a great idea.

[with_discipline]

...Indeed. That is - unsettling.

[acid_rayne]

The only good thing about ports, compared to the floods, is that you're less likely to be affected.

[with_discipline]

By what factor?

[acid_rayne]

You need to be up on deck and fall over the side... You do the maths.

[with_discipline]

As Mister Sexby referred to. A smaller chance indeed, but it doesn't lower the likelihood of trouble.

[acid_rayne]

So long as I can face it with my wits about me...

[with_discipline]

That would be preferable.
