The Independent Spirit, Bridge:
- WARNING: Containment breach in 10 minutes! - EMERGENCY STATUS: RED - The computer screamed over the communication system. The lights dimmed and turned red.
"What the fuck!?" AJ snapped his head away from the security feed as the alarm sounded, only to find the rest of the bridge crew gone. "Where the hell is everyone?"
- WARNING: Containment breach in 5 minutes! -
"Hey! You just said ten!" AJ screamed up at the computer's speakers, throwing his hands out in frustration. He bolted to the corridor and found the bridge crew standing out there laughing at him.
"Assholes! I almost had a heart attack!"
- Well that's what you get for being a peeping tom. - The Ship's Avatar chastised AJ.
"Fuck you, Howie," AJ retorted. Fucking, self-righteous avatar, he thought to himself.

T.I.S., Captain's Quarters, shower:
Kevin's grip was too strong for Nick to pull away from him and the cold shower spray. "Shhhh... It's ok, you're ok. Calm down."
"What happened? Why... why am I wet and naked?" Nick locked eyes with Kevin, trying his best not to look down.
"We were getting too caught up in... well..." Kevin couldn't find any words that wouldn't sound crude. "The cold water will regulate our body temps and hopefully wash away some of our scent."
"Scent? What?" Nick was confused.
"The pheromones are taking over. We're bonding." Kevin's hand came up cupping Nick's face. "Your scent is driving me crazy. All I want to do is throw you on the bed and fuck you senseless."
"Bonding?" Nick whispered as his body fought the cold water, trying to heat up, again.
"We are connecting. We wont just walk away from this and not think or feel for each other." Kevin turned them so that he was between Nick and the shower door. "With Lance, he and I were not compatible. You and I are."
"But we don't know each other... we don't know important things." Nick was conflicted, feeling both sad and horny.
"We don't have much choice in this situation, but that doesn't mean we can't get to know each other before we..." Kevin felt the hormones taking over, he couldn't keep his mind clear any longer.
"Fuck?" Nick finished what he thought the older man was going to say.
"No... Well, yes, but I want to try and make you as comfortable as possible with this." Kevin tried not to focus on the teen's naked body. "When Lance and I did it, we didn't even know the other's first name... We were strangers. That doesn't have to happen with us."
Nick realized that Kevin was fighting this, trying to protect him, or at least prepare him for what was to come. The Captain was looking out for him. The blonde didn't know if it was the hormones or what he really felt, but at the moment Nick really admired him.
"Maybe you can get to like me a little before we take the next step." Kevin took a step forward and then back.
"So we're staying in the shower until we... get to know each other?" Nick was so innocent.

T.I.S., Engineering:
Joey entered the engine room carrying a tray of chocolate rum balls. He found a pair of flaming red leather-covered legs sticking out from underneath a consol. "I don't think you should be messing with that."
"Hey, while Lance is "indisposed" I'm in charge of engineering," Josh replied from inside the wall. "And I don't like the color of these view screens. They're boring."
Joey placed the tray down on the floor next to the legs and surveyed Engineering. Everything was a mess, wires and circuit boards were scattered all over the room. "Lance is going to kill you when he gets back. You know how he likes things, 'A place for everything and everything in its place.' He's going to flip out when he sees what you've done to the place."
"Pfft!" Josh gave a dismissive reply. He started humming as his knees came up and his feet started to tap the floor. An arm came out and grabbed a chocolate ball.
