I really hate this stupid space station.
If anybody needs me, too bad.
I'll be under my covers until this unappealing form passes over.

You cannot expect to stay in bed that long.

[maid_of_fthulu]

Want to place a bet on that?

[aquabro]

That depends

[maid_of_fthulu]

You will lose regardless.

[aquabro]

Do you truly feel that way?

[maid_of_fthulu]

Yes.

[aquabro]

hmmm

[maid_of_fthulu]

You may not be aware of this, but I grew up in the middle of a forest forty minutes away from the nearest signs of civilization.
The benefit this time is the quarantine is self-imposed.

[aquabro]

That is fine, if you feel you need to, but someone may wish to have your company.

[maid_of_fthulu]

They're just going to have to wait a few days without me.

[Wow, even she thinks that's selfish of her. But she's not budging from her stance here...]

[aquabro]

That is rather unfortunate. I suppose they can just sit outside your room and wait.

[maid_of_fthulu]

...you're outside, aren't you.

[aquabro]

I wonder.

[maid_of_fthulu]

You are standing out there, staring ruefully at the door like a lost stray that has forgotten his way home and cast adrift to the tumultuous sea of misery and isolation.

[aquabro]

You enjoy putting a twist on things.

[maid_of_fthulu]

Fine, I'm opening the door for you.
There it is unlocked.
