[Even in the midst of this, we still have new crew shuffled in. Nice to see the Atroma are all business as usual, right? Welcoming Kaname to a pretty miserable ship, all things considered. :|]

[No judgment, but he's glad that this one is alcohol-free. He accepts it and takes a grateful sip.]

Not bad, all things considered. I'm... I'd say I was getting used to things, but. Well.

[How the hell do you bounce back from what they just went through?]

[You don't. You make room in your soul for it and you move on.]

You've come at a bad time, I guess. Usually we have a long period of just... nothing. Planet visiting. That's it. They seem to be ramping things up lately.

[Yeah, that's the tricky part.]

Mmm, well... can't say I'm surprised. I've had a run of bad luck for the past couple years.

[That's... not a joke, just the truth as he sees it.]

I'd like to go back to planet visiting, actually. The one we were at before this was nice, if busy. Maybe we'll have a break after this? Give everyone time to... recover.

[A man can dream, right?]

[Well, that gives her a lighter subject to talk about, at least.]

What was the last place like? I missed that one.

[Ginko takes another sip of coffee, mostly to hide his slightly surprised expression. He'd lost track of when exactly she'd vanished... had it really been before they went to that planet?]

...right, well. Like I said, it was pretty busy. Most shops seemed to be open all hours of the day and night, and a lot of restaurants were too. The whole planet seemed to be a city, though they had farms for food as well. I spent most of my time up on those, working on the crops.

[A slight pause, while he considers if there's anything else to say.]

The amusement parks were worth a trip, I went to a few of those.

Sounds like a fun place. And here I love shopping, too. [Sigh.] Oh, well. We're bound to get a place like that again some time soon.

I hope so.

Anyway, we'll have those waystations at least. They're not great, but it's better than nothing, I guess.

What about you, though? Holding up okay?

[She'll do them both the favour of not pretending she doesn't know what he's talking about.]

I've been better. I'm a lot angry at our gracious hosts. But yeah.
