And on a more lighthearted note...

You do realize as a married woman, I need not such courses.

[2good4thegundam]

[Normally, that would be enough. But given Devon's general hobo-ness...]

...How familiar are you with contraceptives?

[emorangerblack]

...

[Congrats Sayla, you made Devon sweat.]

They exist.

[2good4thegundam]

Yes, well...That is something you will want to know for whenever you and your husband consumate your relationship, if you haven't already.

...If it is too embarrassing, I can speak with you both in private.

[space_mcgyver]

Whaa! But why?

[2good4thegundam]

Because as a doctor, it is my job to make sure this ship does not become a festering pit of infectious disease.

...Have you ever set foot inside a school?

[space_mcgyver]

'Course I did! Junk Guild has training for new members, and even before that there is school for the members' kids and stuff like that... I had to learn to read and write somewhere, you know.

But... disease? Huh? What's that got to do with anything?

[2good4thegundam]

Truly, the Junk Guild is a shining beacon of education in our dark times.

...You're coming. There's a whole class of diseases I have to teach you about...

[betterthnaliens]

And what if we don't want to?

[2good4thegundam]

Then I suppose I'll just have to ambush you when you let your guard down.

[betterthnaliens]

...

You'd actually drag us there?

...you're not kidding, are you?

[2good4thegundam]

...A little bit.

[Sayla taps out some stuff on a small tablet.]

Hrm...We don't seem to have your education records on file...

[emorangerpink]

Isn't that, uh... a lot of the crew? All taking this course together?

...I don't suppose any of the records that came with me included my cert for this from school...

[2good4thegundam]

Well, most of the people here went to decent high schools. I figure they'd be exempt, once I ask them a few basic questions.

This is more for the people who know nothing of this subject.

[emorangerpink]

That would be, um, yes. If that's possible. Please.

I guess I have to agree it's a good idea... I can't say I envy you, though.

[2good4thegundam]

...Yes, it's going to be...an experience, all right.

Would be bananas but these are hard to get in postapocalyptic Germany

[saikyocivrobo]

Are you going to make people put condoms on bratwursts?

[2good4thegundam]

...Maybe. It depends on how silly I'm feeling.

[saikyocivrobo]

Well, as amusingly awkward that might be to watch, I think I'd rather pass. I'm 20, had this in high school already...

And with the rate at which things are going, it's not like I'd need this knowledge anyway.

[2good4thegundam]

Hey, don't...don't be that way.

I'm sure you'll find someone.
