Dear Jo,

I experience similar discomfort when speaking on the subject of reproduction. Vulcans do not speak of it with outsiders and it is a subject that we consider to be intensely private. That humans are able to speak so freely on the subject is discomfiting. However, there are cultural similarities in that our parents are charged with conveying relevant information regarding both the… mechanics and potential dangers associated with reproduction. Unlike humans, however, this is strictly an oral tradition and there are few written materials on the subject.
The University of Mississippi linguistic program seems promising. Have you decided which university you will be attending following the culmination of your compulsory education?
Live long and prosper,

Dear Savas,

I was seriously thinking about Ole Miss (The University of Mississippi) because that’s where Daddy went. That’s why I brought it up in the first place. Maybe we can go together? I mean, wouldn’t be nice to be on the same campus, even if we’re not in the same department. We could hang out and play chess together with a real board and pieces. Wouldn’t that be nice?
I’m forfeiting this game, by the way. I think it’s a lost cause on my part. You want to play white this time?
P&ll

Jim,
Tell me you’re flirting with that girl for a good reason. I don’t like it and I don’t like her.

Bones,
Relax, I have no serious interest in her. You’ve got to admit she’s got quite a pair of legs, but they don’t make up for her complete lack of personality. I think I can get through to her father by convincing her that Starfleet’s a better option than the Klingons. I only want her for her iridium deposits, so no reason to get jealous.
Can we talk about the fact that I haven’t been with a woman in… since the Academy? I have needs, Bones.

And what, exactly, is it that you need that you can’t get from me?
Just make sure your diplomacy stays in your pants. I’m sending you the same pamphlet I sent Jo, just so you can have a refresher course on what’ll happen to you if you stray too far.

OH MY GOD! WHAT IS THAT?!
I- I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything like this. Are those tentacles on page 16? I’m not sure page 48 is even possible.
Bones, tell me you didn’t send this to Jo and that you don’t have page 35 growing in the lab.

My God, man, what kind of a doctor do you think I am?! I don’t keep vials of deadly STDs just laying around in my lab, let alone ones that cause your internal organs to dissolve from the inside out! This is the new and revised version of the Starfleet handbook on safe sexual practices with humanoid and non-humanoid species and yes, I sent this to Jo and any officer or enlisted person that comes through Med bay- including you! I’ll have you know that I made most of these edits myself and that Starfleet Medical was glad to have them. It’s about damn time, too.
The point is, Jim, that if you stick it into every pretty thing that walks by, you’re liable to contract something that I can’t cure. Do I have to describe to you what exactly takes place when you contract a resistant strain of Haemophilus denebi or are you going to take my word for it?

Okay, okay, I get it. Why don’t we talk about this after shift? There’s a dinner with the ambassador and we should be in orbit by the time it’s done. The ambassador and his daughter will beam down afterward, hopefully willing to sign the agreement with the Federation, and you and I can have a quiet evening, just the two of us.

Dear Daddy,

Thanks, I think. I really don’t think there’s any danger of me getting space herpes from Troy, though. And to be honest, I don’t really have any interest in sex with anyone, so can we just drop it? Luanne is jealous because Troy and I are lab partners and I like talking to him about stuff. He’s smart and fun to talk to, but I’m not really interested in him that way.
Anyway, I’ve got chess practice and a bunch of homework. I think Bill and Lenny just like having their butts kicked. At least Mrs. Kaplanski is making the little cookies with jam in the middle of them. I think those are my favorite. I’m gonna be so fat if I keep this up.
Love you and tell everyone I said “Hi!”
-Jo
