closed | let's talk about all the good things
CHARACTERS: Cibo, Murphy first, Scout second
LOCATION: Murphy's Room w/Murphy → Cibo's Room w/Scout
WARNINGS: Talk of condoms and sex. Probably depressing things too. WHO KNOWS.
SUMMARY: Cibo is officially dating Scout. Murphy is being big brother. CiSco are awkward couple.
NOTES: because of this.
It was back on that ninth jump that Cibo woke from her gravity couch for the first time and met Scout.
...aaand then slept with him the same week.
Okay, so she's has come a long way in the way of building friendships, learning right from wrong, and figuring out just what the hell love is. After a month of not seeing him after the events of the other worlds and finally talking to him about their status, she's finally got her relationship with Scout straightened out. Maybe it was seeing Killy that one last time that made her realize that the feelings she had for him just would never happen. Killy was still important to her, but anything more intimate just would not happen. She didn't want that with Killy.
Somehow, she was content with that.
But circumstances on the Tranquility were extremely different. She finally able to let herself love. And for whatever reason, her heart decided to fall for Scout. Maybe he was there for her. Cared for her? Well, Murphy was always there for her too. Maybe in another way she loved Murphy, but not like Scout. Scout was special to her; He held importance to her that was beyond her control.
Officially, Cibo chose Scout. They're in a relationship. A couple. Dating. No matter how you put it, Cibo is pretty ignorant. And, because Murphy is usually there for her when she needs him to be, hopefully that's why she's found her way to his room; to get some advice on what she should do now that she's a girlfriend. Now that she has a boyfriend.
So let's talk abouuuuuut sex.

For Murphy, in any case.
"Oh, I dunno... disease? Pregnancy? A number of things when you're doin' that kinda thing in a place like this?" Murphy snapped incredulously without even realizing it. He was just naturally curt when frustrated.
no subject
Cibo is silent for a few seconds; just to let that sink in.
At least she couldn't be too surprised with Murphy's attitude towards the subject. Disease? Pregnancy? These were important dilemmas with the human body, weren't they?
Reproduction obviously seemed like such a negative sanction with anyone aboard the Tranquility society. Maybe even a taboo considering she never heard anyone speak of it in public. And it had taken such effort to make Murphy say these things out loud—Maybe it was her fault for not understanding though.
When she finally spoke, her voice remained gentle. (Why would she be upset with Murphy about something he didn't know?)
"There are extremely few things that can make me sick, Muprhy... My immune system has been several times enhanced so I don't get obtain any sort of disease through wounds or poisoning."
There's only a small pause before she continues with an almost cautionary tone in response to his own.
"And I'm not capable of becoming pregnant, so please don't worry about that..."

Okay, that was an awkward and unfortunate way of phrasing it. But already Murphy had seen an outbreak go around on the ship firsthand once, so he knew well enough that not everyone was completely immune to sickness and disease. Much as he wanted to believe her (and how much of a terrible mixed blessing it is to hear that she's infertile. To Murphy, he couldn't imagine anything that could be worse), he still had his reasons and no, he wasn't at ease with them at all.
"I'm just sayin', you should try and stay safe. They've got, uh... things in the medbay to look into stuff like that. I'd suggest you probably check in some time -- just to be sure."
