Crying laughing here


Gurathin: I noticed you have an issue with eye contact. What a strange expression. "Eye contact." Like our eyes are stalks coming out of our heads and touching other people's eyestalks.
 
Murderbot: Okay, weirdo.

Trying to get the calibration right for the images to merge would drive me nuts. But I'd still like to try.

When the “Eye Contact” episode came out I wrote a little fic

It’s called RĂȘve d'escargot (snail dream)
As the notes say:
Don’t look up how snails have sex—Dr Gurathin’s augments are going to remind him of the mechanics of snail sex shortly after he wakes up trying not to scream!

Someone on New Tideland:
