We should clearly organize a book club!

Might have to pass the books around a bit, but it's a good idea. Get people talking more, broaden literary horizons and all that. Especially with some of the weird alien books you find on these planets.

[Or whatever else the Fleet has to offer.]

[takingkarabusiness]

Right, probably not too many copies to go around.

What sorts of things do you like?

[wingedman]

Honestly, I got into the habit of reading anything that was around in Afghanistan. It was the same kinda situation there - too much down time, not enough books to go around. I'd absolutely read weird alien books.

[A pause, and then:]

I draw the line at Fifty Shades shit, though.

[Not because it's erotica, but because it's bad erotica. You gotta have standards.]

You were in Afghanistan? With the army or...?

[wingedman]

Air Force, pararescue. Did two tours of duty over there before I decided the life wasn't for me.

Well, still, thank you for serving. I can't imagine—I mean, sure, I put myself out there to save people all the time, but I'm bulletproof.
