Ah, yes, hello. This is your local doctor slash surgeon, Ryan Dalias, with an important reminder. You're in a new place, there are all sorts of interesting new people to meet and things to do. But remember, all humanoid species are not the same, and differing biology may not be apparent on the surface. Before interacting...intimately with the local populace, take appropriate prophylactic precautions. Just because you appear biocompatible doesn't mean you have the same immunities, resistances, and biome.

And when you don't bother with any of that, I am a doctor, so just contact me and we'll get that cleared up. I'm also available to treat more standard ailments and injuries.

[ abigail is off planet for the first time and she's mostly trying to figure out if this is more like aladdin or like oliver -- the one with the cat and the singing dogs. also wondering how she is meant to survive this heat.

the last thing on her mind is putting someone sweaty near her, that's gross. ]

Shouldn't you know your audience to be successful? A middle school health teacher knows who she is talking to.

[at least it's a dry heat? humidity would be much worse.]

It was a broad and fairly inoffensive message. I suppose some people aren't interested in sexual activity, but they should still be aware of potential reactions.

I am from a place where people can be offended about anything. Especially sex ed.

[ apparently she wants to introduce the doctor to this concept as well, even if abigail doesn't actually care. she was curious and bored and thus, this. ]

[brainthingie]

Ah. Middle school, easily offended...20th to early 22nd century Earth?

[theminotaur]

Correct, 2013. Keep guessing, I want to see how close you can get with minimal information.

[ maybe he can guess bloomington! ]

[brainthingie]

Ah, not bad, not bad. You sound like someone from the United States, but not anywhere with a particularly strong accent.

[theminotaur]

Also correct.

[ she hums, debating what to say to narrow it down. ]

Our sex ed was abstinence only.

[look]

[ wow thank fuck for ryan then. ]

[brainthingie]

[at least someone appreciates his desire to educate]

[brainthingie]

Somewhere in the midwest? You don't sound like you're from the southern US.

[theminotaur]

Minnesota.

[ that was impressive enough but she feels like she gave a super good hint so maybe it was just really easy. she shifts and the view turns to a seemingly microscopic view of corduroys so... that's boring. ]
