No, I can't imagine it is. No more fun than being sea sick or anything else like it.

[The more she's hearing the more she's learning that people in the future are crazy obsessed about disease....]

[universal_charm]

_{[ Well, you know, it kills people? Like, whole swaths of people. Wiped out entire populations even. ]}

Well, considering being sea sick won't kill you but a disease can... yeah, not very fun.

_{[ And just imagine how many more there are out in the universe. He's had so many booster shots Danny. He's sure Bones takes some sort of sadistic pleasure in administering them. ]}

[Wow Kirk you really know how to woo a girl. Talking about foodborne diseases.]

So you... store everything, then? Or throw it away. To keep people from being sick.

[Hmm. Interesting.]

Should we be worried about how well prepared the food here is?

[She eyes the shrimp-like food too, wary of it.]

[universal_charm]

_{[ Well, you know, things go there sometimes. You were the one who looked shocked, all right? ]}

More or less, yes.

_{[ He glanced at the buffet laid out and chuckled. ]}

This looks just fine. I wouldn't worry about their food preparation skills.

_{[ He lowered his voice to a conspiratorial whisper. ]}

[She whispers back, looking up at him with a small smile.]

Perhaps we could smuggle more than that and have an entire feast to ourselves.

[It would be nice to have some companionship, truthfully. He was a strange man but if he was willing to be her co-conspirator in a fun game like that, she wouldn't hate it.]

That dress didn't happen to come with a purse, did it?

[moonofmylife]

[As it happens-!! She holds it up, smiling proudly.]

Funny you should ask that.

[universal_charm]

_{[ He grins and motions to the buffet table with its bounty of food - and napkins. ]}

Then by all means. It is rude, after all, to look in a lady's purse.
