fifth sentence

[uncoils]

I'm kind of surprised, but that was actually fun.

[Well, someone's happy about the space trip.]

Like I kept expecting it to all go to shit, and yeah I got arrested, but that's not too bad. Plus being arrested in space sounds way cooler than being arrested on Earth, right?

[She shrugs, it's cool to her. Maybe not to the space types, but whatever, it's cool, okay?]

You know, if more stuff like that happened, this place would suck a whole lot less. Beats drowning and falling asleep all the fucking time and all the other crap that happens.

[She'd throw more examples, but does anyone need more examples?]

So uh...I'm not the only one who got thrown in jail over the weekend, right? Please tell me I'm not the only one.

[If she was, it loses all cool points and becomes the most embarrassing thing ever. Okay, maybe not ever, but definitely in a while.]

You were probably the only one.

[:D]

[uncoils]

Not funny, Souji!

[Don't even joke.]

video;

[eatsyourscience]

[Okay, okay.]

Was it bad?

video;

[uncoils]

Actually...not really? Not compared to back home. You'd think it'd be worse because it's the future, and there's aliens, and I mean, did you see Alien 3? Because that's kind of what I was worried about, but...I don't know.

[She mostly kept to herself, played cards with a couple Batarians, and then ended up back here.]

Kinda nice that nobody tried to kill me this time.

[eatsyourscience]

I think anything where no one tries to kill you is an improvement over anything where someone does try.

[Even if it's jail.]

How'd you end up getting arrested anyway?

video;

[uncoils]

Hit a guy for being an ass, he went and cried to the officers, I got arrested because of course I fucking did.

video;

[eatsyourscience]

[The obvious response here is to tell her not to hit people, but he thinks that's probably obvious even to her, so he doesn't say it.]

What was he doing?

video;

[uncoils]

Being a creep and not getting lost when I told him I wasn't interested.

video;

[eatsyourscience]

That's a good enough reason for me.

video;

[uncoils]

See, that's what I thought.

video;

[eatsyourscience]

Still, there have to be non-ending-up-in-prison ways to handle it.

video;

[uncoils]

There probably are, I just suck at finding them.

video;

[eatsyourscience]

Want me to give you some lessons?

video;

[uncoils]

Yeah, actually. Heard it did wonders for Kanji.

video;

[eatsyourscience]

Kanji did all that himself.

[Okay, so Souji was there to hold his hand a little and to tell him to stop threatening people and yelling, but still. It was almost entirely Kanji.]

video;

[uncoils]

Heard that too, but I figure a little extra help probably didn't hurt.

video;

[eatsyourscience]

Then I'll do what I can.

video;

[uncoils]

Thanks. I appreciate it.

video;

[eatsyourscience]

Any time you want to talk or just hang out, let me know. That'll be a start.

[It's not that she doesn't already do that, but it's a little different if he knows she wants his help somehow.]
