Stacy's voice came over the comm, blaring across the entire ship.

The mouth in the main sculpture on Obs Deck opened, revealing a screen with the image of a mottled blue and purple planet, rotating slowly.

His brain was still catching up from running mazes.

"Uh yeah. Skin itch, or it's sometimes me tied down and bleeding over a seal or something."
