Transmission Log - Orestes

Auto-generating preface...
|
|
|
|
A log from GREEN. He recounts his current affair with PINK.
|
|
|
|
PINK has been spending less and less time around him since their
|
|
first coital encounter.
|
|
|
|
More worryingly, he speaks about PINKS desire to 'get rid' of
|
|
NAVY. I have no record in my audio logs of such an utterance.
|
|
Either PINK has found some way to circumvent the surveillance
|
|
systems, or GREEN is lying here. I will increase the threat-level
|
|
across the Orestes and hope that this situation diffuses itself
|
|
soon. In the meantime, perhaps it is worth reexamining my
|
|
suggestion regarding PINK's reassignment. Perhaps to the Electra
|
|
outpost, where she could still research crystal activity.

She's not so bad, I suppose. PINK, that is. We argue constantly,
|
|
but I've started to find those arguments refreshing. It feels so
|
|
good to shout a little and express some aggression. I think it's
|
|
the same for her. Most people get upset when arguments get
|
|
heated, not her. It helps that we mostly argue about 'academic'
|
|
things, and keep personal questions out of it. It turns out she
|
|
knows a lot more about science than I first gave her credit for.
|
|
I've been learning from her.
|
|
|
|
Anyway, I suppose it was inevitable that the arguments would lead
|
|
to something more. We've been sleeping together. In retrospect, I
|
|
don't know why it took so long for it to happen. We've been the
|
|
only people on this rock for more than two years now. I guess
|
|
they selected us for this mission in the first place because of a
|
|
low sex-drive, but low is not 'zero'. I think for her the sex is
|
|
mostly something to quell the boredom, but for me it has meant
|
|
more.
|
|
|
|
She doesn't like NAVY at all now. I don't mind the guy. A little
|
|
simple, but mostly in a charming way. She wants to have him
|
|
replaced. I don't think he can be replaced though. He's been here
|
|
so long, and I now believe he understands the crystals more than
|
|
we do. He knows the terrain of this planet so well and he knows
|
|
the quirks of the Orestes outpost like the back of his hand.
|
|
|
|
I hope she doesn't really want to get rid of him. I'd probably
|
|
end up taking her side if there was some kind of conflict. I
|
|
don't want to lose her now.
