{4th Flight; Text}

Looks like the one person I had from home went back. I can't seem to reach her on her bracelet, at least. Or find her in her housing. I haven't been here that long myself but from what I gather, that's what I assume has happened.

I need a drink. All this fighting and everything has been frakking crazy. Anyone wants me, I'll be at the pub.

You think I don't? I'm in the military back home, so I need to stay fit. Especially as a pilot. As handy as a gun is, you still need to be prepared.

[Though she seems more amused by his observation, not particularly considering herself much of a maiden at all. Even her body is somewhat toned, showing while she works out she clearly drinks most of her calories.]

Hmm, I see.

[And he takes that opportunity to totally check her out.]

You do look pretty fit, I have to admit. In all the right places!

All the right places, huh?

[She raises an eyebrow at him, obviously noting him checking her out, though she doesn't seem angry about it. More amused if anything.]

I guess it is never something I really focused on, my appearance. So long as I am fit for my job is what matters.

[He follows that with a wink. Inigo is pretty ridiculous.]

All girls like being pretty, somewhere deep down. I'm sure of it! But hey, being devoted to your job is a good trait, too.

Heh. I guess so. Not that I would know about other girls necessarily.

[She shrugs, fairly indifferent about her appearance. It's part of why her in a dress is kind of a once in a lifetime thing, really.]

And what about guys then? You like being called handsome or something like that?

Of course! Handsome, charming, dashing, likely to sweep a girl off her feet. Those are the kinds of things I hear all the time, anyway!

[He doesn't.]

You think so?

[She almost laughs at that, but thankfully covers it with a sip of her drink.]

Of course! I know so!

You get confirmation of all that from every girl you meet then?

Oh... well... not quite every girl...

That's what I thought. Everyone has different tastes after all.

What are your tastes like, then?

Well. I guess, tall, dark hair...gods that sounds so stupid and cliche.

[But. Well, true. At least with the last three serious relationships she has been involved in back home, and her last fling. Zak, Lee and Sam were all like that. Baltar was more a spur of the moment thing, a one night stand of sorts just to get a quick lay.]

Hm... well, they say girls are into that sort of thing.

[Much to his distress! He has some tall, dark and handsome friends. It's so unfair.]

I guess. Just...actually thinking about it and saying it aloud makes it sounds that much more stupid. Anyway, it isn't like Lee or Sam is here either way.

There's nothing wrong with being a little stupid sometimes!

Uh... Lee and Sam are ex-boyfriends?

I guess everyone has their moments.

[She takes a sip, savoring the taste before answering.]

Lee is. Sam is my husband.

You're married?

[Hmm... well, Inigo knows plenty of married women! Most of them are pretty great.]

Yeah. Never really expected it, but there you go.

[And here is where she will reveal the wedding ring, attached on a chain with her dog tag.]

I guess that sort of thing can sneak up on someone. So, uh... how's marriage working out for you?

Okay, I guess. Sam knows me well enough to know what to expect when I asked him that morning.

[Meaning he is aware of her relationship with Lee and her tendency towards alcohol and sleeping around.]

I can't imagine it would be much fun, but then, I guess I'm just not suited for that sort of thing! It would be a criminal thing to take me away from the ladies of the world, after all.

Criminal?

[Oh this guy is far too hilarious for her. Let alone when she is drinking okay.]

I'm not sure if I would go that far.

What? Why not?

[D:]

Sure, you're probably a great guy or whatever, but. Come on. No way anyone would say something like that was worth putting someone in jail for or whatever. As strange or pathetic as some laws might be.
