| 4549 382 My sister sent a note from the home world? Should I care? We grew up together. She was the one who decided to stay. I'm not to blame for her inability to cope with 4 children. They're not mine! I'm the logical one. I have to be. Yes, I'm emotional but I know a thing or two about reality. I'm just empathetic enough, flexible enough to handle most anything. She can't handle a tooth-ache. It's too dry. It's too cold. It's too ... No, dear sister, the drama is all about you. And you know what? You'll cope. You'll figure it out. You're the 'smart one'. A xeno-chemical-biologist who was born for the stage! 4549 383 So I sent her a letter when I calmed down. There's nothing to report around here. No drama. Nothing going wrong. Oh, don't get me wrong. Something will go wrong. It always does. But I enjoy these moments. 4549 384 Famous last words. The hydro system sprung a leak. Not enough water where we need it. Too much where we don't. The Engineers are working on it. Not my job. I just jot down notes on how everyone is handling it. We have a Gqarian who sealed herself in. Good idea. This isn't her area of expertise and she'd only be in the way. It's so important to know one's strengths and limitations. I told her I'd notify her when it was safe. The Kla, however, think they know better than anyone else. I spiked their tea. They were so stumbly-drowsy it took six of us to get them to a safe dry place. Everyone agreed it was worth it. One of the Landers said he could calm people down by touch. He's actually good at it. I need to jot that down. I never knew. 4549 385 Well, yesterday was hectic but we have a good crew. All back to normal. The Kla woke up in time to actually help with the clean-up. They're good at sorting things out after the fact. I wish they would understand that. But it's in their nature to boss everyone around. It takes all type to run a ship through the void between stars. Someone asked me about what makes my heart beat faster. I told them that every day I meditate to regulate my heartbeat. I can't afford to let it push me around. I monitor it. And now I know someone who has a magic touch. I have no need to seek thrills in fantasy. Our lives are thrilling enough! I'd rather read a historical-mystery where I know how it ends or do a word or mathematical puzzle to massage my brain. Nope. No drama for me. I read in old texts about a 'drama-llama'. Reminds me of my sister. But what's a llama? We don't have any on this ship. For:
Good morning starship. I just got back from an away mission to a star I have known for sometime. Today's star is Lilli 🧿 ☕  The prompt is "Who really understands why two people from the same home turn out so differently?" from her blog "Yes, we are family, but..." Planet "What makes your Heart go thump?"  [E] by LMs❤️BrewinMagic  asks the question: "What makes your heart go thump?" So ... what makes your heart beat faster? Love? Horror movies? Novels? What gives you a thrill?" |
