[ As soon as the transporter is back up, Feferi comes back from her mission and after getting caught up on things, is not very happy. She's been given the run down, she's skimmed all the posts and comments. Even her fins are all puffed out, it's that serious. Even though most of the known mutineers have been captured now, she still feels the need to say her own piece.

Sollux is somewhere in the background making faces and being generally disgruntled. ]

So, the next time anyone wants to try and take over, maybe they should stop and think it through a little more! Maybe don't strand people on missions, or try to think about those of us do not have anywhere to go back to except being dead, or worse! Try to think about everyone else's worlds that need protecting!

If you really want change, you should try helping us! The Department of Initiative-Transport Relations exists for a reason, and when we opened, I asked everyone for their thoughts, and barely got any. Why didn't you come to us?

[ So this is nothing that hasn't been said before, but... hey, she was stranded and she's mad. ]

I really hope you're happy now, because we are right back where we started! And I am going to go right back to what I was doing, except now we have even more work to do and I do not even know who I can trust to not want to ruin the one good thing some people have here.

[ She looks like she wants to say something witty or cutting to end her commentary, but she comes up with nothing and ends the feed with a little huff, before hitting the off button. ]

There'th going to be no convincing them. They're all stupid, shellfish whiny wigglers. Every thingle one of them.

[fintastic]

Shellfish!

[ You can't expect her to not be instantly brightened by fish puns, Sollux. She puts down the tablet on a nearby shelf and moves closer to him, draping her arms around his shoulders. ]

Maybe not all of them. But if just one will listen to me, then I have done some good!

[biwinning]

They won't. They all have this extremely awful disease that affects the brain and makes them all really stupid all the time. It's called having The Dumb. It's fatal.

[fintastic]

[ She just kind of laughs. His pessimism is too familiar by now for her to take it seriously. ]

Really? You're sure there isn't a cure?

[biwinning]

No. Completely toxic. Death is the only cure.

[fintastic]

Wow, I didn't know that. When did you become a medical expert? Should I call you Dr. Captor from now on?

[biwinning]

... Yeth. I'm a medinterrogator now. Dr. Captor is my official title.

[fintastic]

Okay, but can Dr. Captor cure my No-Snuggle-itis? I hear that is fatal too!

[biwinning]

I'll cure it. But not with the camerasth thtill recording.

[fintastic]

I already turned it off! That would be weird.

[ And she'd probably forget if she didn't... ]

Now come cure me before it kills me!

[biwinning]

Alright, fuck, fine.

[And then cuddles are had. So much cuddle. Wow.]

You're high maintenance, you know that?

[fintastic]

I'm high maintenance? Really? You of all trolls is telling me that!

[biwinning]

Yeah. We're both pretty like that, aren't we?

[fintastic]

It's not maintenance if you like it too!

[biwinning]

It still ith. It'th jutht well maintained maintenance.

[fintastic]

Snuggles aren't even high maintenance, you don't have to do anything but sit there! You are such a complainer.

[biwinning]

I am. I know.

[fintastic]

Good thing you're so cute.

[ She starts playing with his hair, idly, fluffing it, brushing it back with her fingers, braiding it into little braids... ]

What are we going to do with all these humans?

[biwinning]

[Don't remind him, his hair is getting kind of shaggy...]

I don't know. I'm really tired of dealing with them. I could probably pchoo us back to the planet, you know. Maybe we'll find a deserted island. We could just live there, without any of these humans.

[He is like... 98% joking.]

[fintastic]

We'd have to leave Eridan here. That's probably punishment enough, right?

[biwinning]

For the rest of the colony here, yeth. But they deserve it.

[fintastic]

I'll think about it. I have too many friends here, and so do you.

[biwinning]

I know. It'th unfortunate. I never used to have thith many friends and attachments to people.

[fintastic]

Yes you did, you just didn't ever admit it. So how does it feel?

[biwinning]

Annoying.
