okay so like

i got here after we'd after we got to the starlight, so i don't know exactly how long we were there, but i wanted to know how long we usually stay at planets or stations or whatever

like on a scale of one to ten how likely is it that we'll still be here in two or three weeks

[she doesn't like having to wear the mask whenever she leaves her ship, but there's another reason she's asking, too.]

also i keep hearing about people who have been pulled into places like this before and i wanted to hear more about those if anyone feels like talking about their previous shitholes

not your fault

what's the last thing you remember from there?

[beathach]

Leaving. I was home for a month before they pulled us here.

[robitussin]

man

that's lucky

[beathach]

Is it really lucky if I got kidnapped again?

[robitussin]

comparatively

at least you got like

a kidnapping breather

[beathach]

Okay, that's a fair point. Somewhat lucky, then.

[robitussin]

i'm guessing that's not much of a consolation though

[beathach]

Not really, but I'll take it.

[robitussin]

probably wise

what ship are you on?

[beathach]

The Blameless. Where are you?

[robitussin]

pathstone

did they really name a ship blameless

[beathach]

They did. It's a newer ship to the fleet.

[robitussin]

i can't tell if that's a legitimate name or if they intended it as a shitty sarcastic joke

[beathach]

If I find out I'll let you know. [because there's definitely some irony in him being shuffled there]

[robitussin]

lol

that implies they would ever tell us anything

[beathach]

I know, it was sarcasm.

What is "lol"?

[robitussin]

laugh out loud

when something is funny

[beathach]

Oh. So it's shorthand.

[robitussin]

yeah

do you want a short glossary of other stuff i'm going to type out a lot

[beathach]

Sure, why not? Otherwise I'll end up asking what everything means. Better to bypass that headache now.

[robitussin]

the other two important ones are omg (oh my god) and wtf (what the fuck)

[beathach]

Thanks. Do a lot of people use those?

[robitussin]

uhh maybe

depends what year they're from mostly

[beathach]

Oh, that would make sense.
