... Damn, this place is so dull lately. Never did like "the calm before the storm".

There any whorehouses here? Brothels, gentlemen's clubs, whatever you wanna call it? Would hate to think I've been missing out.

What's a whorehouse?

[alittlegreedy]

A place where a guy can pay to have sex with women.

[skinniest_too]

You... have to pay? Give them monies? No one will dance with you of their own free will?

[Ooooh, buuuuurn. Though he didn't mean it in that way.]

[alittlegreedy]

[He doesn't take it that way, either.]

Not unless they're already easy, or we're already in a romantic relationship.

[skinniest_too]

[Glad we understand each other.]

Relationship? Blech. Dancing among humans sure is complicated. I almost pity you.

[alittlegreedy]

Isn't it?

[but pinged!]

So... if you're not human, what are you then?

[skinniest_too]

Isn't it obvious? I'm an Irken. And not just any Irken; I'm a Tallest.

[That's nice, Pur, except that normal people don't know what that means to anyone.]

[alittlegreedy]

What's an Irken?

[skinniest_too]

What do you mean, what's an Irken? I'm an Irken.

[A short video clip opens, and you're greeted with an enormous, purple, insectoid eye, before the camera apparantly zooms out, giving an impression of a green, very skinny alien type thing.]

[alittlegreedy]

[ ...

well. that's something he's sure he's never seen before.]

... Then, what can you do?

[skinniest_too]

[Don't make that face. He's attractive where he's from.]

I can do anything I want.

...or, I could. Before this terrible moving human torture chamber caught me.

[alittlegreedy]

So they nullified all your abilities, huh?

[skinniest_too]

...sort of. I still have my PAK, of course, and really, what else does an adventurous sort of Irken need?

Not that I'm particularly adventurous, but you get the idea.

What about you? You look kind of scary for a squishy.

[alittlegreedy]

PAK?

But hey, hey. I'm not scary looking. [in denial]

[skinniest_too]

My mechanical brain. I don't feel like switching to video again; I'll show you if we ever pass each other on the ship.

And yes, you definitely are. They have reflective surfaces here, yes?

[alittlegreedy]

... Now, that is interesting.

Nahh, I'm one of the least scary looking guys here. [have a charming shark grin that he feels it needed to prove his point]
