Josie was walking along the corridors when she ran into Rev. "Oh, hello, Rev."

"Hello, Josephine."

She smiled. "You don't have to be so formal, Rev. All my friends call me Josie."

Rev fell into step beside her. "And you consider me a friend? You're not afraid of me?"

Josie stopped and looked at him. "No, I'm not. Even though, I know you're supposed to be a really horrible creature who does terrible things to us humans and other creatures."

"That is correct. It does not bother you?"

"Well, from what I've seen, you've overcome your nature. Either that or you work really hard and are very good at fighting it. I've seen a lot of things since being launched in space, Rev. I've even been in danger more then once. We all have. Somehow, we always manage to overcome it. The only thing we can't manage to do is get home."

"Ahh, yes, that is a problem. Rooted in one particular person, I believe."

Josie smiled at Rev's politeness. They both knew who he meant. "Well, I might be tempted to ask you to let loose your baser nature on her but I won't. It wouldn't be fair to you. Or very nice. So, I won't. Rev, you do know I'm only kidding, right? I know you would never do that."

Rev smiled. "It is all right. I learned about humor and sarcasm from Mister Harper. He is an excellent teacher in both those regards."

"I'll just bet he is."

The Magog smiled at that. "Yes, he is. However, there are always new lessons to be learned. I am very glad to have you and yours aboard the ship...Josie." The two linked arms and continued on their way.
