That awkward moment when your arm falls asleep while you're deep in philosophical thought with the bf XD They're talking about forensic anthropology, and other assorted science topics.
I love them so much, what if they were both nerds and in love <3

Session 5 Recap: Part 2/6
The Dining Car landed in the middle of a patch of prairie grass that stretched high enough to completely cover the ship from view. A landing space had been carved out in the grass’s center, and before them was a rough, unfinished road that would have been a nightmare to walk. Luckily, they didn’t have to so long as they could get their jackalopes to obey them. This was simple for Dolly: she’d visited plenty of worlds where riding had been the only way around and had enough experience with other animals to figure out how to wrangle a rabbit. Geraldine rode on the back of the one Dolly mounted, and spent most of her time soothing it and whispering praise. Dolly took the opportunity to pretend that some of the whisperings of “good girl” from her companion were directed at her and fell into a comfortable silence listening to Geraldine.
Chuck was quick to claim the back of the second mount, which forced Prometheus to take the front. He had never ridden before and was vocally anxious about doing so, insisting that they were going to be thrown off or disappear into the grass. Chuck asked Prometheus what the jackalopes ate, which Prometheus guessed to be grass, but he didn’t actually have any idea. (Chuck also asked Dustin, who said he had no clue and got increasingly frustrated with being asked things that didn’t relate to scouting and shooting). Chuck quickly assembled a bundle of grass on a string, used his artificer abilities to make it smell extra strong, and gave it to Prometheus to dangle above the jackalope’s head to urge it forward.
The outlaws took the third jackalope and led the party forward along the uncomfortable trail for what felt like hours, but was probably only about half of one. They eventually found themselves at an unfinished crossroads (it was clearly intended to be one, but no roads actually crossed so it was just a giant patch of smooth dirt), at which point they were allowed to dismount and ordered by the outlaws to spread out and search for signs of the lookouts and work crew that were supposed to be stationed at the crossroads.
Chuck managed to follow a rotting smell to a pile of massive birds nests crushed under branches of trees Barley's work crews must have felled. Prometheus made a quiet complaint about the size of plants and animals on this planet while Chuck continued to investigate. He discovered a few corpses, but they didn’t look entirely human. They did, however, look unfortunately familiar to the party that now gathered around Chuck. They had claws, long tongues, faces that looked as starving and wrathful as the ghouls they'd done battle with on the interstellar railway. They weren’t entirely identical, though. These ones were even more emaciated than the battle ready monsters. It was as if all traces of fat and muscle had been eaten away. Upon further investigation, even marrow had started to go missing from the bones that had begun burstring from beneath their paper-thin skin. That was not the cause of death, however, as that appeared to be wounds from weaponry.
The party conferred with the outlaws, who said they’d found similar corpses. They denied any knowledge of what they were and seemed disturbed by the sight of them. They ordered the party to remount and move forward under the assumption that their comrades had been the ones to kill these monsters and that they’d find traces of them closer to the outpost. The party returned to their jackalopes, but couldn’t move forward as a piercing shriek caused the creatures to freeze and refuse to move. For a moment the party worried that this might be a sign of more ghouls closing in on them, but Dolly identified the screech as something natural. In fact, she matched it to a bird when she started to detect the flapping of wings in the distance. If they hadn’t found signs of giant bird’s nests, she may have been surprised to be able to hear such audible flaps. Instead, she was filled with horror as she realized that they were being circled by giant hawks.

A Poem About The Stretchmarks On My Stomach
Shameful scars, Not badgess of honor like true scars, Not telling tales of survival, But of guttonous and slothful sin, Bursting at the steams, Barely containing the viscera, Of my worn and torn body.
I gave up alcohol because it was turning me into my grandad, I gave up cigarettes because I was too poor, I can’t get it up unless someone cares about me, And after getting to know me, I don’t blame them that I don’t. Bones and body broken beyond belief, So there goes my workout relief, All I have left to do is merely exist and eat, As the seams on my stomach become, More strained and frayed, Each passing day, Until one day I’ll burstr, Or maybe I’ll collapse, Maybe I’ll collapse into myself, A singularlity of gluttonous sin, A void left only to consume.
I’m not that far off from it now.

Balıklar da hisseder.
