"Glad your back, boy." Gascogne said, to the smaller boy who was sitting infront of her on the table. As usual, they were playing cards, and Hibiki was furious since he still coudn't win.

"Yeah yeah... here!" He said happily, slamming the cards down on the table.

"Sorry," Gascogne said with a wink, putting the cards down.

"ArghH!!" Hibiki yelled, slamming his fists on the table. Soon enough, Barnette came into the room and sat down beside Hibiki to watch them play. She had a look of depression on her face.

"Smile, smile." Gascogne said, as Hibiki dealt with the cards.

"I knew you were going to say that sooner or later, Gasco-san..." Barnette said with a sigh.

"What's wrong?" Gascogne asked, as she took the cards Hibiki handed to her. "And it's GascoGNE."

"Jura...." Barnette whispered. "She's so stupid, chasing men around there outside."

"And?"

"Gasco-san, you know how I look up to her, not just as a friend..." She said. She turned to Hibiki, who was too busy straightening out his cards. He noticed her stare, and looked back with a confused face.

"What? Do I need to go now to give you too some private talkin'?" Hibiki asked, blinking. Barnette shook her head.

"Baka, I don't care if you hear me out or not. Then should I call it even? You did tell me everything in our little talk when we thought Gasco-san was gone."

Hibiki blushed and fell off in his chair. He could remember it all too well, when Barnette asked him if he wanted to talk. And he agreed, saying he didn't have anything to do anyway.

"Oh? So you know about his craving for the UFO girl, do you?" Gascogne asked, as she and Hibiki continued to play cards. Barnette giggled and nodded at the same time. Hibiki sat back on his chair.

"Shut up... don't tell a soul..." He scowled.

Gascogne and Barnette sighed. "The whole ship knows, baka."

"THEY DO?!?"

"Shhh.. Kahria's asleep in the next room." Barnette said, laughing slightly. Hibiki just growled back.

"Uchuji-san!" Dita's voice rang cheerfully as she entered the room, and hopped down beside him.

"Heya, Dita!" Gascogne said cheerfully, along with Barnette, as Hibiki scolded Dita about his true name, which Dita ignored fully.

"Well, see ya..." Barnette said, as she stood up from her chair and headed for the door.

"Barnette-san! Jura's looking for you... said something about helping her out...." Dita told Barnette.

"Yeah, whatever." Barnette replied, as she shut the door behind her. Dita blinked.

"Is Barnette down?" She asked.

"You can put it that way..." Hibiki said, as he slammed his fists down on the table once again for losing to Gascogne.

"Young people today, too stressed out..." Gascogne mumbled.

Hmmm... maybe I should just hang out with Jura, and I might feel better... Barnette thought, as she went around the ship looking for her best friend. She blinked, and opened the door to the clinic.

"Oh, Doctor! Lend me some of your books, please??" Jura's seducing voice cried out, as she lounged towards Duero, and beside them was Parfet and Pai, who both looked furious at Jura.

BANG.

Or maybe not. Thought a now scarlet Barnette, as she walked away the clinic in a huff.

"What's this?" Asked a confused Shiro, as he pointed at a bottle of beer, addressing his question to Ezra, who was in the kitchen with him.

"That's beer, Shiro-kun, it's a kind of beverage." Replied Ezra, with a smile.

"Sou... is it good?"

Ezra blinked. "Hai, but it's not that good if you take too much."

"Why?"

"Well... you get drunk, and when you get drunk, you can't control what you're doing, and you sort off act wierd... and some people do things they really will regret when the beer wears off."

"Wo why would anyone want it?"

The woman with the cozy smile sweatdropped. "Well... most people drink too much of it when they wan't to forget their problems..."

"Oh." Replied Shiro, but he still had a confused look. "And what's this?" He held up some lipstick that Ezra had dropped a while ago. "Can I try it?"

"Uh..." Sweatdrop.

Hibiki lay down on his bed, asleep.

"Uchuji-san..."

*blink*... he looked up, Dita's face. "Gyaaa!!!!" He pulled to the farther side of the bed in an instant.

Dita stared at him in confusement.

"You better hurry up, Hibiki." Buzam's voice said from behind Hibiki.

"What? Why?" Hibiki sputtered out.

"There's an attack." Buzam sternly replied. "You didn't seem to wake up."

"Hibiki-chan just might be tired, BC-san." Dita replied with a grin.

Hibiki stared. -chan...?!?

"That's kinda cool..." Shiro whispered, as he looked out to the battle in space. Misty was looking out too with him.

"Yeah, it is." said Misty.
