That sounds scary. Do you like it here?

The whole caste system thing is different and kind of confusing and the infanticide and the way reds are treated is infuriating and the bit where you all desperately want more babies than you can have is heartbreaking. But the science and engineering are amazing.

I always figured we'd meet space aliens who knew more than we did.

You would think! And yet.

I was really upset about the food thing because I joined the military for the money and they're cutting units. But now I wish they'd fire me already.

I don't blame you for being upset but I think it's best if no one dies including your kid.

Well, yeah, it's fine for the war to go cold now I have the credit all paid off.

Yeah.

I have a possibly rude question, feel free to tell me to fuck off.

What is it?

Why were you leasing a credit?

Couldn't afford an aftermarket one outright.

Do you spring that bad?

I think the answer to your question is "I got raped"?

Otet says to tell you if you want she can make him sorry without getting you in trouble.

I just want to forget about him.

Okay.

I'm sorry.

Wasn't going to blame aliens.

Sorry for prying, she clarifies.

It's okay.

What's the baby's name?

Katin.

That's a cute name!

Thanks!

I haven't given a lot of thought to kids but Otet's known what name she wants to give her firstborn daughter for a long time.

What is it?
