Theme Song
The S+R Motif plays, eventually fading into the drones and beeps of regular work tone. 
Scene 1
JONAS: Bethany? 
BETHANY: I swear Jonas, if you ask me where to attach the wires to the wireless scanner one more time… 
JONAS: No, no, I’m still working through that on my own, I was just thinking, you know that ocean planet that we incorporated a while back? 
BETHANY: You’re gonna have to give me more than that, we do about 13 of those a week. 
JONAS: It had that one island that looked like the little Wing-worms that hang out in the corners of the hallways sometimes? 
BETHANY: Maybe? Most of the time ocean planets are just good for a blast of non-recycled H2O that will have absolutely been recycled again by the time it gets to us, why should I suddenly care about this one? 
JONAS: Well, it had a couple sentient life forms on it. 
BETHANY: So does a lot of the stuff we incorporate, Jonas, does this have a point? 
JONAS: No, like, just a couple. Two. Two pieces of life on the whole planet. Not even single celled stuff. Two absolutely massive organisms, each taking up about half of this gigantic ocean planet. 
BETHANY: Alright, we don’t see a lot of that, it’s interesting, I’ll give you that. 
JONAS: So you haven’t seen anything like that either? 
BETHANY: Eh, I don’t want to say that. I’ve been here a long time, seen a lot of stuff, probably forgotten most of it. Eventually it all kinda blurs in front of you. Information overload. 
JONAS: You know, that actually reminds me of something I’ve wanted to ask you. 
BETHANY: Here we go, here’s the real reason you wanted to talk… 
JONAS: No, it’s not… Look, you remember a couple months back when I went through a little crazy spell and thought you killed your previous partner and were confessing that to me through a series of clues slowly revealing the conspiracy? 
BETHANY: Yes, since we’re still getting the daily general medical newsletter that for some reason you signed us up for when you got your inoculations, and that we cannot dispose of via any legal means, I’d say I remember.
 JONAS: So that partner, the one that you didn’t kill, they were kinda like what you are to me? 
BETHANY: A little bit. They didn’t have the same amount of seniority I do, and I had a lot more training coming in than you did. Plus a different, uh, approach, to life. The atmosphere was different, let’s say. 
JONAS: So it was more fun? 
BETHANY: No, I literally mean the atmosphere was different, we had about 5% more nitrogen back then. They were good times. 
JONAS: Oh. Okay then, as long as it wasn’t better. 
BETHANY: Are you worried about something? 
JONAS: I’m just making conversation. 
BETHANY: You’re making weird conversation. 
JONAS: You think almost all my conversation is weird. 
BETHANY: I can’t disagree with that. 
JONAS: I just don’t see why it can’t be just as fun now as it was back then. 
BETHANY: (With a sigh.) I don’t know. Maybe it was. It was more… It had… I don’t know. It was probably the same, maybe I’m just different. 
JONAS: Or it was because Patricia was here. 
Small pause. 
BETHANY: Look, I’d really rather not talk about that. 
Another small pause. 
BETHANY: It was…different. When they were around. I’m not saying better or worse, just different. Okay? 
JONAS: It must’ve been exciting when you started the folder together. It must’ve been a lot of fun. 
BETHANY: I’ve never been good at dancing, physically or in conversation, if you have a point could we get to it, please? 
JONAS: I don’t know, I’m just asking questions. 
BETHANY: Okay. Why? 
JONAS: Because I wanna know more about you. 
BETHANY: Again, why? 
JONAS: That’s what people do. 
BETHANY: Not a good reason. People do worthless things all the time. 
JONAS: Yeah, but we do a boring job in a little box all shift, and you’re more interesting than most of the other things around here, plus, and don’t take this the wrong way, but it seems like you really need a friend. Like, badly. 
BETHANY: Wow, thank you, can you put that in writing and deliver it to the Advancement Consideration Corps? With that solid of a recommendation I could be due for a promotion soon and everything you see around you could be all yours. 
JONAS: You’re deflecting so I’ll stop asking questions about you and Patricia. 
BETHANY: No, I’m not actually, I’m currently wondering why you get weirdly insightful sometimes. It’s like a little switch flips in you and suddenly you have emotional perception. 
JONAS: Is that a bad thing? 
BETHANY: Yes, it’s very unsettling. 
JONAS: Useful, though. So the two of you started the folder, right? Or did Patricia start it and come to you, or the other way around, or…? ……or……? 
BETHANY: I’m not doing this. 
JONAS: That’s okay, I can just keep asking. Or, worse, I could just guess and get it wrong… 
BETHANY: (Sigh) We started it together. 
JONAS: Why? 
BETHANY: I mean, it does what it says on the box. We kept coming across things that were Extraneous, but Interesting. So we made a folder and labeled it Extraneous But Interesting. It’s a fascinating story, I can really see why you wanted to hear it. 
JONAS: Why didn’t you just trash it all if it was extraneous? 
BETHANY: Would you have trashed all the stories? 
JONAS: No. 
BETHANY: Well there you go. Now imagine that feeling but me instead of you. 
JONAS: Okay, okay, I’m you, we’re the same, we’re identical in mind and spirit. 
BETHANY: I’m going to actually vomit right now. 
JONAS: We’re going to actually vomit right now. Come on, Bethany, that’s not a real answer. 
BETHANY: I don’t know what you want. Things were fun. We liked the fun things. We saved them so that we could look at them again later. 
JONAS: But how fun were the things? 
BETHANY: You’ve read a bunch of them, what are you even asking? 
JONAS: Not the first ones. Come on, like what flipped the switch from “oh this is cool” to “oh this is cool and we have to save it for posterity”? 
BETHANY:I don’t know, there wasn’t one thing, it was just a bunch of…you know… Like anything. Like… Like there was one planet that we incorporated that just had a hole straight down from its magnetic north pole into the mantle. Nothing lived around there, no sentient life had ever developed or visited, just a hole, about 8 inches wide, dropping into the middle of the planet. 
JONAS: I...I guess...I don’t really...how? 
BETHANY: Exactly, right? How? It doesn’t matter now, planet is gone, totally incorporated, that mantle was powering something in this big clunker for a good while, but it’s cool, right? Extraneous but interesting. 
JONAS: I kinda wish I could’ve been there to see that. 
BETHANY: You know, I’d bet the hole is still on the ship somewhere. Not much use for a place where nothing is, especially when you’ve got all the storage space we do, but it’s also hard to destroy something that only exists in relation to matter around it, so I’m guessing they just put it in a corner somewhere. You could try to find it on a break. 
JONAS: It just sounds like you used to have a lot of fun. 
BETHANY: Sometimes. That’s just how we used to pass the time. I’m sure you’ve noticed that there’s really only enough work for about half a shift so it really drags on towards the end, so you have to fill them with something. We always figured as long as you got your stuff done, they wouldn’t care enough to notice you. 
JONAS: Huh. That’s freeing. And depressing. 
BETHANY: That’s the life of a small cog in a big machine. As long as you don’t screw everything up, nobody notices you.
 Small pause. 
JONAS: Bethany, can I ask you a question and have you not get mad at me? 
BETHANY: You can sure try. 
JONAS: Why, uh, why isn’t it fun here anymore? 
Small pause. 
BETHANY: Yep, Jonas, you can sure try. 
JONAS: You don’t have many friends on the ship, do you? 
BETHANY: Keep digging, Jonas, you just keep digging that hole… 
JONAS: Do you? 
BETHANY: No. It’s work. It’s just work. 
JONAS: It doesn’t have to be. 
BETHANY: You can stop trying now, Jonas. 
Small pause, fade out.
ANNOUNCEMENT: Hello everybody in Port-hull, registered subsections Delta through Zeta Prime, it’s officially time for your regularly scheduled, bi-weekly, 15 minute, surprise, unpaid, coffee break. Please remember to clock out and leave any equipment at its station. Failing to clock out will be regarded as a Level-4 Time-Theft Incident, and your wages may be garnished until the debt is repaid, along with other disciplinary matters. Please also remember to clock back in afterwards. By failing to clock back in you are agreeing to work, uncompensated, for such time until you choose to clock back in, and we appreciate all our volunteers who choose to do that. Also, a reminder that as of four-years ago there has been an interruption in our coffee-acquisition ability which we are actively lobbying several different governments to rectify. Therefore, there is no coffee for the coffee break. Please note that consumption of other beverages during the regularly scheduled, bi-weekly, 15 minute, surprise, unpaid, coffee break, is punishable by official demeritization as well as possible removal of future regularly scheduled, bi-weekly, 15 minute, surprise, unpaid, coffee breaks. You have been warned. Productivity is happiness, even on a break!
Scene 2
JONAS: Is...is that coffee? Is that real, actual coffee you’re holding? 
BETHANY: You know I try to take my breaks alone so I don’t have to answer questions during them, right? 
JONAS: Real coffee? My God, it’s been months…. 
BETHANY: Calm down, you’ll wet your uniform. 
JONAS: Just let me smell it, I -- 
Small pause. 
JONAS: That’s not coffee at all. 
BETHANY: Would you just -- 
JONAS: That’s not even a little coffee. That’s 100% black goo. Somebody’s breaking procedure… 
BETHANY: Gonna turn me in? You might get my job if you can swing it right. Have you looked upon everything I have these last couple of months and said, “That’s it, that’s the life for me.” 
JONAS: Wow, now that you mention it, I’ve never had power like this before. Do I look taller? I feel taller. 
BETHANY: They turn the gravity down during these breaks. We’ve only got 13 minutes of surprise coffee break left, must we spend it like this? 
JONAS: Well, I suppose I could let this slide... on one condition. 
BETHANY: Oh? What’s that? 
JONAS: You make me a cup of that goo and listen to what I’ve been finding, and I won’t turn you in. 
BETHANY: That’s two conditions. 
JONAS: Alright, I’ll give you a freebie for the next surprise coffee break too.
BETHANY: (After a small pause.) Fine. You sure you want some of this? It’s actually copro-mildew tea with some goo added to fool the cameras into thinking it’s coffee so the alarms don’t trip. 
JONAS: Yeah, about that, I’m not sure the cameras actually do anything. 
BETHANY: What makes you say that? 
JONAS: Not for nothing, but I’ve done some things in front of those cameras before I noticed them that make me think I would’ve been fired if anybody was watching them. 
BETHANY: Oh, it’s not people, it’s all A.I. 
JONAS: That makes even less sense, they’d be better at it. 
BETHANY: Do you remember your first day here? Do you remember that A.I.? 
JONAS: Honestly past a certain point the past is kind of a fever dream for the most part. 
BETHANY: Have you ever been scanned? 
JONAS: What kind of scanned? 
BETHANY: I dunno, but there’s definitely something wrong with you and I’m pretty sure it’ll take a scan to figure it out. 
JONAS: What’s wrong with me is I don’t have a cup of goo-tea in my hands right now. 
BETHANY: Among other things. Have a sip of mine quick, no worries - I’ve had my shots - just before we go wasting a whole ‘nother cup… 
Slurping. 
JONAS: That...that is a unique taste. 
BETHANY: Eh. It grows on you. 
JONAS: It would have to, I think. 
BETHANY: No, I mean it literally grows on you. Drink too much and you get weird mildew buildup around the gill ducts. 
JONAS: The things you do when you’re out of coffee, huh? 
BETHANY: Yeah, you could say. Hey, weird fact for you, did you know that almost 83% of the sentient and agricultural species that we’ve assimilated have enjoyed a beverage similar to coffee? The whole universe is full of coffee and I’ve only been able to try it once. 
JONAS: And what’s wrong with the species that don’t do that? 
BETHANY: I haven’t looked into it that far. My guess would be biology that’s very sensitive to stimulants. In which case who knows, maybe something else triggers the same bits in the brain, like a noise, or a taste or an act of proprioception, even specific tension inside the muscles or a specific pressure inside a fluid-filled carapace might do the job. 
JONAS: Life just goes in the weirdest directions, doesn’t it? 
BETHANY: Until we get there. 
JONAS: I’d clink my drink with yours at that, but I don’t have one yet. 
BETHANY: Fine. Come on, tell me what you’ve found. 
Fade out. 
ANNOUNCEMENT: Hello everybody in Port-hull, registered subsections Delta through Zeta Prime, this is just a quick and helpful update, letting you know that you’ve used up half of your regularly scheduled, bi-weekly, 15 minute, surprise, unpaid, coffee break. We would also like to remind you that this is a regularly scheduled, bi-weekly, 15 minute, surprise, unpaid, coffee break, and not a regularly scheduled, bi-weekly, 15 minute, surprise, unpaid, exercise break. Therefore activities like stretching, walking quickly, breathing heavily, straining and/or exerting one’s self, and any other act of positive physical stimulation that does not involve the ingestion of coffee is strictly prohibited. Please enjoy the final half of your regularly scheduled, bi-weekly, 15 minute, surprise unpaid coffee break.  Even in the middle of a break, happiness is productivity.
Scene 3
BETHANY: So where are we, still on this very wet planet we slurped up? 
JONAS: (Straining.) Yeah...sorry...this stuff really likes to stick in the throat. 
BETHANY: Gotta be stronger than the goo-tea, newbie. You’ll get it. There you go. Fight it down. Now, you’ve got 7 minutes to “wow” me before things get busy again. 
JONAS: But it’s never busy down here. 
BETHANY: Yeah, but sometimes I pretend. It breaks up the day. 
JONAS: Okay, so… 7 minutes, really? That’s a bit short, but okay. So we’ve got this watery planet, right? 
BETHANY: Yes, very aware of the water at this point. 
JONAS: So we’ve got this watery planet, and the only sentient life on it are these two individuals, but they’re huge. Each one takes up about half of the planets...surface, for lack of a better word. There’s some little stuff, bacteria, plankton, but nothing bigger than one of the buttons on our uniform. Except for these two creatures. Two massive sentient...things. Essentially big colonies of a specific mold that developed some sentience, and connected all of it’s various bodily bits to add that sentience up to one big thinking…thing. 
BETHANY: Six minutes. 
JONAS: Part of the joy of storytelling is in the listening, but fine… So these two organisms are super friendly with each other, right? Almost like siblings. One eventually gets interested in space, and the other is very interested in seeing what things are like down under the rocks at the bottom of the ocean. And so they each start doing some science, and tell the other what they’ve found, and it’s all very interesting and fun. 
BETHANY: It sounds like it. Five and a half minutes. 
JONAS: And this goes on for hundreds of years. It goes on to the point that they each actually start making some technological headway on each of their interests. Telescopes, boring equipment, you get what I mean. 
BETHANY: Do they have names? 
JONAS: Not really. Well, kinda. They’re kinda named the same thing. Only two organisms, you know, linguistically not much use for names, so they each respond to the word for “you” and refer to themselves with their word for “me”. I call them Stardust and Rocky though. 
BETHANY: Stardust and Rocky, huh?
 JONAS: Yeah, I had a pair of little semi-domesticated rodents named Stardust and Rocky once, and this opportunity lined up so perfectly… 
BETHANY: Little over four and a half minutes. Also, we need to talk about you naming things. I’ve heard you talking under your breath to the file cabinets and the light switch lately. 
JONAS: It’s not illegal to name things. 
BETHANY: You can’t name a lightswitch Henriette, Jonas, it doesn’t make any sense, it’s not a good name for a lightswitch! Also, 4 minutes 15. 
JONAS: Henriette is the perfect name for our lightswitch and I will be talking about it on company time, as long as I choose to care! Anyways, where was I, crap, okay, so Rocky is drilling into the planet and Stardust is watching space, hoping to send some kind of probe in a few dozen years. Everything is fine. All is well. Then, Stardust sees, through a telescope, a comet. Stardust can tell that its angle is going to bring it very close to their planet. So they start crunching some numbers. For a couple weeks. And all the time this thing is getting closer and closer. But they don’t tell Rocky. Rocky doesn’t know a thing about it. Rocky is finding different mineral deposits and discovering the history of their planet through the very rock itself. Rocky is busy. 
BETHANY: Four minutes. 
JONAS: This would go a lot faster without interruptions, you know? 
BETHANY: (Talking very slowly) Oh…would…it…that’d…be…annoying… 
JONAS: So Rocky is playing in the dirt, and Stardust calculates that when the comet hits, it’s gonna hit Rocky’s side of the planet. There’s nothing to do, nothing that can be done, in a little over three weeks, Rocky will be dead and the planet will be forever changed. 
BETHANY: Stardust would be really lonely, huh? 
JONAS: Oh you’ve got no idea. Stardust is heartbroken. Writes so much bad poetry, begins plans for a memorial, begins naming the things it sees through its telescope after Rocky. Well, really after the word “you”, but it’s one and the same. Just really taking it hard. Rocky still has no idea. Rocky has not been told. Rocky is in the dark. 
BETHANY: Stardust was trying to be kind, I’ll bet. 
JONAS: Absolutely. Nothing could be done about it, why worry your friend, right? By the time they know anything is wrong, it’ll all be over. So the big day comes. Ka-boom. Rock hits, planet shudders, galactic destruction is unlike anything conscious life can possibly imagine...yada yada yada. When things die down a bit, you know - less tsunamis, earthquakes, things like that - Stardust takes out this beautiful eulogy that they’d written and begins to read it as a tribute. And as Stardust is reading, and mourning, and all that good stuff, they hear something. Another voice through the water. 
BETHANY: Less than two minutes, bring it home. 
JONAS: And that other voice belongs to Rocky, who was also reading a eulogy, to Stardust. 
BETHANY: There you go, twist that plot. 
JONAS: Rocky had been building what essentially amounted to planetary armor for itself ever since it had started digging down, needing something to do with the extra material it removed. At this point only about 11% of Rocky’s body was closer than 6 meters to the seafloor, and only 4% was in the water itself as opposed to in the ground. So painful, definitely, but not life-threatening, despite the destruction. 
BETHANY: Well just look at Rocky go. 
JONAS: So they have this very weird talk, right? Stardust tells Rocky about how they thought there was no chance for survival and how they didn’t want to poison their final days with worry, and Rocky tells Stardust that they felt so guilty after the comet hit because they didn’t think anything could’ve survived whatever had just happened, and Stardust was so exposed, always looking up, no planetary armor at all. 
BETHANY: That’s very sweet. 
JONAS: They’re on the verge of this wonderful step forward, combining technologies, moving onward, moving together toward common goals and betterment instead of separate and localized pursuits, and right as they go to connect their bodies, possibly on the way to becoming a singular planetary organism the likes of which almost no system has ever or will ever see, we show up and Incorporate them. 
BETHANY: ...4...3...2...1...and that’s time. 
JONAS: Well? 
BETHANY: Interesting. Put it in the folder. Break’s over though. 
Fade out. 
ANNOUNCEMENT: Hello everybody in Port-hull, registered subsections Delta through Zeta Prime, this is just a quick and helpful update, letting you know that you’ve used up the entirety of your regularly scheduled, bi-weekly, 15 minute, surprise, unpaid, coffee break. Please resume regular tasks and be sure to give a little extra to make up for the time we’ve lost. Remember, it’s not just good business practice, it’s a legally binding requirement of your employment. At the end of a break most of all, happiness is productivity, and productivity is happiness. 
Scene 4
Fade in. 
Slightly awkward silence. 
BETHANY: Did you see where I put the new guidelines for property relinquishment in the event that the property relinquishment guidelines are lost? It’s kind of important. 
JONAS: (With an exaggerated sigh.) I think they’re under the broken scanner. 
BETHANY: Our scanner broke? Oh yeah, here they are. Wow, that is a… yeah, that’s a broken scanner alright. 
JONAS: It wasn’t entirely my fault. 
BETHANY: Jonas, where did you even find all these wires? Our scanner is wireless. 
JONAS: (With another sigh) You keep saying that and I don’t know how that keeps happening. You said I needed a scan. I tried to get the scanner working. 
Small pause. 
BETHANY: Jonas, this scans papers. 
JONAS: Well how am I supposed to know that? 
BETHANY: Well, it does say “paper scanner” on it. Or, it did. Now it kinda says “pap ner” since the middle is all…wired like the ship if we ever get coffee again. 
JONAS: (Another mournful sigh.) 
BETHANY: Okay that’s like the fifth pathetic sigh you’ve let out in the last half hour, what’s going on? 
JONAS: I’ve just been thinking. 
BETHANY: That could make anybody melancholy, I’m not surprised. 
JONAS: Yeah…
 BETHANY: Look, that didn’t sound like it, but it was an invitation to continue. Get it out, come on. 
JONAS: Well, it’s just… You know I like working here with you, right? 
BETHANY: Jonas, we both hate this place. 
JONAS: Yeah like the job and whatever, but you know, if I’ve gotta do a job, I’m glad I get to do it with you. You’re a lot nicer than other people I’ve had to work with. 
BETHANY: You must’ve had to work with some really terrible people. 
JONAS: I’m being serious. 
BETHANY: That’s not something you do. 
JONAS: You say you want me to talk and then when I do…
 BETHANY: Sorry, sorry, force of habit. Seriously, thank you. I appreciate that. 
JONAS: I’ve had, um, you know, like, people I was friendly with before. Other people I worked with. It was pleasant and all that, but I never had, like, a friend friend. Not since the middle of being educated, I guess. I just wanted you to know that I think of you like a friend. And I know you might not think of me like that, but I do, you know - to you, so thank you. 
Small pause. 
BETHANY: Why would you think I don’t see you as a friend? 
JONAS: Well, it’s, I know we’re friendly and all, but you don’t really want to be friends with anybody. 
BETHANY: Who said that? 
JONAS: You did? 
BETHANY: When? 
JONAS: All the time. 
BETHANY: That’s a lie. 
JONAS: Not out loud, with your demeanor and your overall vibe.
 BETHANY: We’re deep in the bowels of the ship here, Jonas, you can say attitude, there’s nobody to impress with demeanor. 
JONAS: See? Just like that. 
BETHANY: That? That’s just an unrelated coping mechanism, don’t bother with that. 
JONAS: Huh? 
BETHANY: It’s got nothing to do with you, it’s just how I am. 
JONAS: Yeah, and I get it. Kinda. So that’s all I’m saying is that you have your thing going on, but you’re my friend, and I wanted to tell you that.
 BETHANY: Well, okay. 
JONAS: Okay. 
Pause. 
BETHANY: You know, I suppose it wouldn’t be crazy to call you my friend. I can have friends, you know. You are my friend, I mean, is what I’m saying. 
JONAS: Am I, though? 
BETHANY: I mean, yeah. Why don’t you think so? Besides my whole thing. Forget the vibe, or whatever. 
JONAS: Well, you know, you never want to do anything together.
 BETHANY: We work together so many hours every day. 
JONAS: But on breaks and during feeding times and stuff like that I always ask you if you want to play a word game or tentacle wrestle, or put something in the EBI or something, but you never want to. 
BETHANY: You read me stuff from the EBI all the time! Stuff that I put there! And I let you read, by the way, you’re welcome. 
JONAS: Yeah, but you never do anything. I’m always doing it, you’re putting up with it. 
BETHANY: Yeah, but it’s different. 
JONAS: Why? 
BETHANY: Look, it just… it just is. There’s a reason. It’s a good reason, but I don’t talk about it, okay? I don’t even think about it when I can help it. 
JONAS: Yeah but
BETHANY: No, let me, let me talk. Despite what you might think, I do consider you a friend. Which I haven’t had many of, and especially not for a while. You’re a very friendly person, so maybe it’s easier for you to say that than it is for me, because for me it’s not really easy. But you have to understand that I’m also a very private person. Honestly, the fact that you even know about the EBI folder has me just a little bit anxious, but you know, you like it, so… whatever. 
JONAS: Why does -
 BETHANY: No, just, please. 
JONAS: Sorry.
 BETHANY: It’s okay. I just… I know I call you out for being a very stangle little employee all the time, and all of that is absolutely true, you’re pretty much a mess, but you got placed with a weirdo who is a complete mess as well, just a more contained mess who’s been dealing with it longer. I don’t have that young person thing where you can just move around with all this energy and get hurt and not care and bounce right back and be fine with any new environment at any time. Okay? 
JONAS: Okay. 
Silence. 
JONAS: The atmosphere in here is kinda weird now. 
BETHANY: Yeah. That can happen. Nitrogen, and all that. 
JONAS: I’ve never seen you that passionate before. 
BETHANY: Lucky you. 
JONAS: I could almost be scared. 
BETHANY: Uh huh. 
JONAS: Almost, you know. But thankfully, my friend is here - 
BETHANY: Jonas… 
JONAS: My friend is here, so it’s all okay. 
BETHANY: Don’t push it. 
JONAS: It’s okay, you’ve got a friend here too. 
BETHANY: I know. That’s my problem. 
JONAS: It’s okay. We’ll solve it. 
Small pause. 
BETHANY: Don’t say with frie
JONAS: With friendship! 
BETHANY: Of course.
