So, uh-- when I first got here, Dr. Cambridge put an implant in me, so I wouldn't have to deal with periods and stuff. But it was a birth control thing too, so that means if I'm having sex I don't have to bother with condoms or nothing, right?

[She sounds hopeful. Please give her the green light to be irresponsible, guys!

[Little-known fact: the deck kind of freaks Tiffany out. Out there, space is right in your face, and there's so much of it-- it's impossibly big, and it makes her feel impossibly small. She's never even seen the ocean from the deck of a ship; seeing the entire universe from one is infinitely more overwhelming.

But it's also nice and peaceful, in a way-- not to mention beautiful. So sometimes when she's feeling particularly brave (and right now, post-port, she definitely is) she goes out onto the main deck. She almost always stays away from the railing, opting instead to stick as close to the side of the ship as possible. Sometimes she walks, but it makes her feel a little dizzy. Mostly, she can be found sitting down-- not on a bench, but on the floor, her back pressed against the solid, reassuring Barge wall.

It doesn't matter where she sits. Either way, she can still see the stars.]

This is the kind of message you aren't supposed to respond to and in fact you should delete it off your phone once you have read it and pretend you realized it all on your own. I know guys don't pick up signals sometimes but if I'm real honest girls are the same way even though we're supposed to be better at this stuff so don't feel bad. So in case you didn't already know the signal coming from me is this, I like how things are and will not be unhappy at all if nothing changes but if you asked me out on a date someday I would say yes.

[Look at her, using spellcheck! It doesn't help with punctuation issues, but still.]

How about one and not the other, all right?

If you do both, and your partner does too, and everything comes back clean. You don't need to do either one anymore. As long as you're only sleeping with each other.

I mean, I'll use condoms and then won't have to do all those tests. Do y'all really take tests every time you sleep with a different person? Sounds like a pain in the ass to me.

I don't know if he's gonna sleep with anyone else or not. We ain't exclusive.

[Well, with her first boyfriend, they were both virgins. And with the second one, he couldn't take the test because he wasn't human, so they didn't have much of a choice.]

If you're in a committed relationship, yes.

You should talk to him about it. Dialogue is important. [If only Tiffany knew the irony of Lydia telling her that when she and Stiles haven't talked about it yet.]
