[He catches it and turns it this way and that, giving the skin a sniff. It mostly conceals the scent, but it's still recognizable-]

It's an orange.

[mikangirl]

Not quite! Closely related. [He's not the first to make that mistake.] These are a little smaller, sweeter, more of a bite. They're also called tangerines, if that's more familiar.

[vartex]

Tangerines.

[Messer gives it another look, and... nope.]

I've seen them before, but they're usually smaller than even this.

[mikangirl]

Oh well, fruit's known as different things in different places. Where I'm from, these are mikans. [If you wanna be a philistine and call it an orange, be my guest, my guy.] Do you like oranges?

[vartex]

Mandarins and apples were more common in my area- our platoon's dorms were stationed above a Chinese-Ragnan restaurant, and not all fruits relocated to other planets well. But I like them well enough, when we had the chance to try some.

[Hence why he's more familiar with the smaller, pure variety.]

[mikangirl]

[Ah. He is a soldier. Explains much.]

Well, hopefully you can get some use out of that lot, then. Even if they're not quite the same.

[vartex]

[Explains SO much.]

Thank you. I'll see that they're properly distributed.

[mikangirl]

[Look at me carefully not being amused.]

Good. I'll consider them in good hands, then.
