We never did name the ladies from the bridge…

In curls is na-Nillina.

Magenta should be obvious. She will do The Time Warp if asked.

Walton
Ace! I never got to say how good it is to see you again. You’ve done well for yourself.

Ace
Chief Walton? I’m glad to see you’re doing well, too, of course. But…

Walton
Ohhhh? Don’t you recall that we’re on a name-for-name basis, Ace. Off duty there’s no Just, or Young Master, or Chief between us. Though I do like the sound of “Duke.” We can do it that way if you want.

Ace
Ah. Not necessary, Walton. But…

Walton
But feelining my strong arms around you as my rock hard abs and firm, high breasts press against your back is just a little discomforting, yes? But isn’t it just a little sensually pleasant, too?

Ace
Yes, and yes, but…

Walton
Ace, being a direct, even pure, descendant of the old labor caste. I’m not just big for an Orion, but big for a Lifter. So, I am easily the strongest member of the crew. I compulsively strength train under higher grav settings. Our blue haired Commander Wildstar, there, is three quarters Terran, and our second strongest crewmember.

After her are your sister and daughter. All four of us are quite hetero, and only Stormy really enjoys hugs. Which, everyone gets and I assure you are nothing like this.

It’s going to be at least half a centi- before the males are out of stasis. There are no Lifters among them, nor do any of them find me all that attractive. I either pay for their company or hope for a sympathy fuck.

As such, I don’t get much opportunity to press myself up against a wide, strong back, particularly of someone that’s said I was pretty.

Walton
You can let me enjoy this for a few moments, between friends, yes? Please.

Ace
I guess. But why is there a line forming?

Walton
Orion myth: men, Orion and Terran, don’t know how to wash themselves properly. Nobody seems to care if it’s true or not.
