When: Right Now

[two old nerds appear on screen, unboxing a large colouring create with "Congratulations On Your One Year Anniversary!" written on the side in big, bold letters. Inside appears to be plushies of DNA, antibodies, and other related paraphernalia.

Of course, while doing this they're sharing the popular "rumors" about them out loud, for their own amusement. Or bemusement, either or]

Let’s see . . . 'Aliens stole Charles' hair.' I can’t say that’s wrong.

In a manner of speaking, sure.

What else . . . 'Hank is a beast in bed'. Hank, you sly devil.

—No comment.

Hmm. 'Hank and Charles are the perfect couple'. I think our students got a hold of this one.

Huh. I just read one lamenting our divorce.

Hold on, what’s this?

[ Charles pulls out a business card ]

Well now . . . I guess I’ll be keeping this.

[Hank's response is to burst into laughter. What a helper]

Comments

[he leans forward a little bit as she explains, very clearly interested and absorbing every word]

Wow . . . so you remember all of your - ah, past hosts? And what you did while you were with them?

[musicalhost]

Every one of them. Lela was a politician, Tobin was a scientist, Emony was a gymnast, Audrid was on the Trill Symbiosis Commission, Torias was a pilot, Joran a musician, Curzon was a diplomat and the Federations ambassador to the Klingons, Jadzia was a scientist, and I'm a counselor.

[beathach]

. . . wow.

That's . . . a lot of important positions to hold, not - taking into account just the number of hosts.

[he sounds amazed and impressed, the nerd]

[musicalhost]

Dax has always been extraordinary so the Symbiosis Commission aims for hosts with high aspirations.

[beathach]

That - would make sense. That's amazing.

[musicalhost]

They're very particular at times, depending on the symbiont.
