Bab 2002: Upgrading People

"Hihihi! Do you think Ves…"

"Oh, that must have been dreadful! Can you imagine…"

"...Genetic modification has gone too far!"

The gossip in the design lab sounded anything but amusing to Ves. His girlfriend simply couldn't keep her mouth shut to the female members of their design teams. It was as if they were back in high school instead of a professional setting!

Ves glowered more and more as Gloriana jubilantly referenced the 'adventure' they went through last night!

"Meow?"

Lucky curiously floated in front of his face.

"Hey, at least I got some action, unlike you!"

"Meow!"

Right now, Ves stood outside the hatch leading into the design lab and workshop compartment. The reason why he paused here was because he wanted to find out whether Gloriana and the others in the fleet were truly gossiping about last night's 'adventure'.

He didn't listen in on the conversation in the design lab by patching into the monitoring system.
