Here's hoping. Whoever said it gets easier is full of shit.

[ Carl takes the offered slug, letting it crawl up his arm. ]

This is weird. Not bad, just.. weird.

[girlverine]

[Eleanor watched him as the slug moved around his arm. It was fuzzy, blue and green, and not particularly messy or slimy. It headed for his shoulder to perch they.]

It should relax you. They relax most people.

[postocular]

[ He lets the slug move how it wants and gives his mood a thought. ]

I think it's working? You said 'most people'. What happens with the others?

[girlverine]

It made a few people very angry.

[Laura had not seen that, only heard about it.]

That's what I was told anyway. They could not stand the slugs.

[postocular]

How could something so cool make someone angry?

[ Just look at this brightly-colored doofus just chilling. How can you hate it? ]

[girlverine]

[Laura completely agreed, albeit not quite in that language. She smiled, faintly, at that comment though.]

I think they were allergic to whatever it is the slugs do to calm people down.

It was not their fault.

[Did she mean the slugs, or the people? Hard to say.]

[postocular]

Their loss.

[girlverine]

[And that made her smile wider.]

Yes, it is.

[She stood up then, and turned to the two tanks, opening the 'dry' tank and reaching in. After a moment, she drew her hand back with a smaller, orange slug resting on the back of it, and then shut the tank and turned to sit back down.]

They are a great help when we are...between places.

[postocular]

[ It is pretty hard, not having access to fresh air or outdoors. Oppressing to be stuck behind steel walls in the vacuum of space. He can see how these calming slugs could help with that, even temporarily. ]

Is this what you do with your free time? [ Not that he's judging, he just doesn't see her around much. ]
