yamara and irene are a funny duo to me because they respect each other deeply as scientists and are about as close to friends as coworkers can get without becoming real friends, but good god do they bicker. i dont think theyve ever wholly agreed on any approach to any scientific conundrum they've ever faced. unfortunately they do great work together, and have a lot of the same curiosities, so they're constantly working on the same projects. one minute they're barely not shouting at each other over the best practical applications of some aberrant space fungus and then 20 minutes later they're throwing papers in the air and shaking each other by the shoulders because they got approved for funding on some operation

Meteor Shower V2
The ISS Burning Horizon is a collaborative research and anomaly investigation ship funded by Piory Technologies and The Pursuit of Complete and Unchallenged Knowledge, managed (predominantly) by humans and slugcats respectively. Two renowned scientists, Dr. Irene Mosley and Yamara "Six-Times-Triumphant," argue about the possible causes of an irregularity on a pre-FTL planet they've been assigned to monitor. Behind them stands Bodie, an adolescent Scavenger apprentice who only got the job because of the stereotype that Scavengers and Slugcats are by default educated on each other's cultures due to their shared home planet (they're not). He brought the piece of information that caused the argument and now the scientists are too distracted to notice him, but as a rule of etiquette he is not allowed to leave until dismissed.
