"I'd be spending just as much time away from them as I would if we had a queen. It's his job to question everything I do. This isn't the first time he's told me this and thus far no other crew have come together to talk to me about it, so therefore my time with you is not as one-sided as Kenny believes. And if that's all he has to complain about, I find its been a good day." he stated with a chuckle.
"You're also thinking in terms of humans interacting with one another and not wraith. I'll elaborate, the average human does a lot with other humans. Everything from feeding together, to working out, to just sitting around doing nothing. And they do this fairly regularly. This is because they are not in one another's heads, because if they were and they did all those activities too, humans would exhaust themselves to death before the age of thirty. Wraith interaction is different, and as there are so few of us on such a large ship, all with daily duties, coming together to talk in person-or spar or eat-makes such that much more enjoyable. In the meantime, we're almost constantly in one another's minds, an almost consistently updating instant message board, to put it technically.."

It'd be awhile yet before dinner was to be started, and Rogue looked as exhausted as she probably felt, so no more sparring.
