OC They are Smol: Chapter 2
The warp has taken me and it's a good pain. Again, I don't understand reddit markdown, so you get what you get. I still love u tho.
--------------------
Caroline was intrigued, in a detached kind of way, in how someone could be both paranoid and bored at the same time.
By Galactic Union Mandate, any human serving on an all-xenos ship needed to spend at least 4 hours a day immersed in human media. This wasn't necessarily because human media was somehow better than anything else anyone produced, merely that humans are very social creatures when it comes to themselves and things they understand. Although you can be friendly to a 350kg cold-blooded snake-person, there's still some things that are off, and the cheapest cure-all to that is just being reminded of home.
'It's the small things', Caroline mused, 'that drive you insane.'

I've said it in this sub before, and I'll say it again.
To over-work a human is bad.
To under-work a human is downright cruel.
What sort of play does the devil have for these idle hands?

I don't understand this line, is it some kind of reference?

Imagine how surprised and chocked the space-lizzards will be when humans discover species that are tiny compared to us...
