[Is it still a mingle if everyone on the ship is violent? Wouldn't that be a riot?]

Comments

[morphitudinous]

Happiness, huh? That's something we could all stand to learn from.

[He quirks a little smile.]

I'll find them the most interesting rock I can.

[girlverine]

Yes.

[Laura couldn't do anything but agree to that.]

Do you want to hold one? Most people say they are calming.

[They apparently didn't agree with everyone though.]

[morphitudinous]

Well...sure. Is there anything I need to know about handling one?

[girlverine]

[She thought that over.]

Don't squish them. Or drop them.

[Then she opened the dry tank and put her arm in, and after a few seconds a blue and green slut crawled off a leaf and onto her wrist, and she lifted him out, shifting it into her palm and holding it out to billy.]

[morphitudinous]

I think I can do that.

[He took the slug gently, smiling at it.]

I never thought I'd say this about a slug, but he's cute. And charming.

[girlverine]

They are called emotion slugs.

[She explained once she was sure he wouldn't drop the little creature.]

They can make you feel...peaceful.

[morphitudinous]

I imagine that's helpful in a twisted metal can like this one.

[He feels better already.]

Though we know cats are even better at that.

[girlverine]

It is. Drifting time can be...difficult.

[Hopefully he didn't mind midnight pacing because Laura does that a lot when they're drifting.]

Cats are...also nice.

[She glanced down at her own, and reached down to scoop the kitten up before she could get away.]
