[ she has to say she's relieved to see that the designation and her having a dominant hasn't changed her at all. she knows it wouldn't have under usual circumstances, but it's the unusual ones she's afraid of. ]
holding up. i have to admit, the wild abandon and sexual revolution is fun but i'd rather have some basic human rights. i'd also like to be able to trust everything i eat and drink.
i've had more of a good time here than i have on my last three shore leaves because none of these people try to drop emotions on me. you know how it is. you meet up for a few times and all of a sudden they just want to talk about where you're headed. i'm not heading anywhere.
i don't know the point of hurting yourself like that. i guess love will find a way even if this is a place where you absolutely should not fall in love. it's the human condition.
you either become more cynical or find someone that makes it all worth it, i guess. i've never been in a position to find someone worth risking it all for. just easier not to open up, you know?

but then she'd wound up in a time where she didn't belong. met someone who made her feel like that kind of thing could be possible.
and then she'd watched him die. ]
Yes. I do know.
I didn't ask earlier, what's the last thing you remember from home?

I can sort of understand it, if you've been here long enough. Some have been here for years.
