.065 - someone breached through his bday booyah

[captain_jtkirk]

I'm actually curious, if you have had your birthday here or might have your birthday here and just haven't yet, would you count yourself as a year older when that day comes?

Or is this place so removed from your normal life and time that you don't think any time is actually passing even as you feel it dragging on you here?

We already talked about this, but for the record, I'm still on the fence about being twenty three versus twenty four.

[captain_jtkirk]

I'm either 28 or 30.

[batmanschmatman]

You still don't feel all that much older than me.

[captain_jtkirk]

That's because I act 12.

[batmanschmatman]

Sometimes. On average, I'd ballpark around mid teens, early twenties. [Trollolol.]

So, is a pirate's life the life for you?

[captain_jtkirk]

Space pirate maybe.

[batmanschmatman]

You're probably less likely to get scurvy, what with medical advancements and all that.

[captain_jtkirk]

Isn't that still a vitamin D problem?

[batmanschmatman]

Vitamin C, that's why people in the British navy are called limeys.

[captain_jtkirk]

What's the one with vitamin D then?

[batmanschmatman]

Depression?

[captain_jtkirk]

Seriously?

[batmanschmatman]

Yeah. It's part of why some people get more bummed out during winter, too.

[captain_jtkirk]

And why people get bummed out here?

[batmanschmatman]

I think that might also be due to the whole almost constant thread of death, vanishing without warning, amnesia, and serious personal injury thing, but yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if that was a factor.

I mean, there's no sun out on deck, so if you're not going in the CES all that often, using one of those UV lamps or trying to compensate for it in your diet, I could see where it could play a part in it. Why?

[captain_jtkirk]

I'm just asking.

[batmanschmatman]

So was I.

How do you compensate for it on Enterprise?

[captain_jtkirk]

I take my crew to nice places.

[batmanschmatman]

I'll bet. I mean, admittedly I've seen a pretty small corner of the universe compared to you, but space is pretty cool.

[captain_jtkirk]

We don't get around as much as you think. I haven't been there that long.

[Private] because lol still paranoid

[batmanschmatman]

Please, I'm still from the era where going to the moon for the average person is incredibly impressive. The only reason I've gone further than our solar system's because of Titans stuff, and because of Kory.

[Private]

[captain_jtkirk]

What?

[Private]

[batmanschmatman]

It's complicated and involves superheroes and stuff that shouldn't be scientifically possible.

[Private]

[captain_jtkirk]

I'm just going to pretend we're still talking about scurvy.

[Private]

[batmanschmatman]

That, and another person from back home showed up during the breach apparently.
