Chapter 16. Holding out for a home life

[thebestseller]

Man-twin, pack up your bags. I, among others, have joined the elite ranks of the Guides and now have the illustrious job of welcoming naked people to this crazy hippie commune.

Which means we now get CUSHY SECTION 4 DIGS. Heat. Air. SPACE in which you can conduct your science and play with your star-friend. Let's get going already and into the lap of luxury.

[Hastily added in.]

Boss. Buddy. Pal. Section 4 only has two bedrooms, I'm afraid. So unless you like couches...

No problem. I think I should start learning to defend myself, too. You never know what's going to happen.

Considering that we live in a fishbowl that regularly kills people, it's something all of us could benefit from. Even if we're not ninjas.

There should probably be a class or something. At least then more people would learn things they need to learn, right?

Hey, that's not a bad idea. "Edensphere 101: Welcome to the hippie fishbowl. Now what?"

[trustingtruth.livejournal.com]

Yeah! Something like that. And there can be added self-defense classes for those who need it.

[bloody-pens.livejournal.com]

I think the idea of self-defense classes has been tossed around before. Wouldn't hurt to get it going again.

It wouldn't surprise me. I mean, there's probably a few people here that aren't all that great at fighting.

[bloody-pens.livejournal.com]

Myself included. Something about the idea of having a gun feels familiar, but other than that, about all I know how to do is the "run away screaming" technique.

[trustingtruth.livejournal.com]

Me too. I haven't faced anything that I've needed to fight before, but I can't imagine being all that great.

I don't know, that sounds like a pretty good technique to me.
