3rd Floor Common Room; After Classes

[kitty--fetish.livejournal.com]

Boooooored.

Up until Alphonse slumped back on the couch in the common room with a bag of chips found in one of the cabinets. He then flipped through the channels on the television, because apparently he didn't watch enough of it. He wasn't really sure what exactly was on, so he was just channel surfing every few moments or so. There was a textbook beside him in case he felt like being productive, but that obviously wasn't right now.

So, TV. Chips. Laziness. Just another Wednesday. Anyone was welcome to poke him.

"It's kind of odd - I didn't really think much about the level of technology back home compared to here. I was more happy over the real-water showers here."

"Wouldn't it be kind of difficult to shower without real water, anyway?"

"Actually, on the station there were sonic showers. Cleans the body using sonic vibrations the mun is guessing. Water is too precious in space to waste on showers. I had a real shower - perks of being in command - but I still had to conserve water. So no long showers and no excess of hot water."

Alphonse arched an eyebrow. "Sonic... vibrations." Okay, so that was a really, really wierd concept to him. "Sounds like space is quite the different place from the ground."

"Not really," Ivanova replied, deadpan. "Aside from the freezing cold, the vacuum, the lack of oxygen . . ."

Alphonse blinked. "So if space is just one big empty space of... nothingness, what's up there that you go off and travel to?"

Ivanova grinned and patted his arm. "I'm sorry, I'm talking circles around you. Babylon 5, half a million humans and aliens encased in five miles of spinning metal, all alone in the night. It's a space station, in orbit around a planet called Epsilon 3."
