Has anyone else ever tried on their kid clothes?? No? Just me?

The shorts don't button but c'mon, who can resist.

[ooc: imagine Richie's scars on his arms. That's the only difference though, he has actually straightened his hair and managed to locate a fake mustache]

	I mean, it's good for a certain kind of ritual. And I'm fully dressed! Those are clothes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Those are underclothes. That you wear under your clothes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	trash_mouth 2022-03-07 10:05 am UTC (link)
	They are not. My underclothes are under these clothes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	brannenford 2022-03-07 10:10 am UTC (link)
	Really. It strains credulity that any other clothes could fit under those. (and let it be said, for the love of heaven, that is not a request for another image) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh man, have you not figured out spandex yet?? (booo no fun) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	brannenford 2022-03-07 10:15 am UTC (link)
	Not yet. Perhaps I'll ask Captain Rogers to include it in our course on futurity. Or you could put some real clothes on. The ladies don't go for that kind of boorishness, if that was your object. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's good stuff. Steve is definitely well familiar. Again, totally real clothes. Lol no, definitely not interested in any ladies, and I am already married. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Quite aside from the immodesty, if you walk around like that you will catch a chill. Your wife will tell you that much. She won't want such a good and faithful man getting ill. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	trash_mouth 2022-03-07 10:27 am UTC (link)
	Modesty is a construct and I choose not to abide by it. Yeah, no, she definitely won't because I don't have a wife. Also, that's old facts, man. Cold doesn't make you sick. Being inside more with other people because it's cold makes you sick. People are gross. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	brannenford 2022-03-07 10:32 am UTC (link)
	Of course it's a construct, dude, but it's a very civilised one and if you choose not to abide by it most people will avoid you. You're the fabled married bachelor, then? Ah. So to avoid getting ill I should stay outdoors in the cold and avoid other people? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Dunno man, I'm pretty popular. No, I have a husband. Yeah pretty much. Gotta watch out for hypothermia if it's like, snowing and shit, but it's not really cold enough for that here anymore. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	brannenford 2022-03-07 10:39 am UTC (link)
	Maybe you're too popular, and this is your way of appalling a few people and so reducing your social obligations? If you're telling me you are a woman who has transformed into a man by Station Magic, I might just believe it of you. I think I'll take the risk and stay inside. I've never liked the cold.

I'm from like 20 years from now and have been doing shit like this since I got here. Hasn't happened yet.

No, just a normal dude. Sometimes he turns into a woman with the station magic, but default setting is guy. His name is Eddie and we're very cute.

I mean, always an option, though washing your hands is a good idea if that's the plan. But honestly, people don't get sick here all that much. We sometimes get a wave when new people show up but once it dies out we're pretty self-contained so new viruses and stuff don't get introduced often.

	I cannot make any sense of that timeline. Why would you do that? Don't misunderstand, I don't care a jot if you're inclined that way, but what would be the point of marrying him? That's a relief. My health is troubled enough without stationer diseases to worry about - and I am hardly going to go around with grubby hands! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	trash_mouth 2022-03-07 11:06 am UTC (link)
	Normally, I'm like 17 or 18 right now and have been here a couple of years. But right now I'm in my 40s. I have all of my memories of the years between and I've lived here on the station the whole time. Huh, jot that's a new one. 'Cause I love him? Why wouldn't I? Just making sure, we never really know what people coming in know about or not. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You are in your forties but you have travelled backwards in time to this point, where you ought to be eighteen? What has love got to do with it? You are hardly going to have any children. I'll have to watch out for the cavemen covered in mud, then. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Yep.

That's what marriage is about here. We have no assets or anything, getting married is just kind of...publicly telling everyone 'yo, this one's mine' and having a big party. And we could have kids-if the station made one of us a woman long enough and we wanted to. I think there are at least 3 or 4 kids here born that way.

I mean, dunno about your universe, but where I came from, doctors didn't really figure out that hand washing directly prevented disease until the 1840s so cave man might be a bit far back.

That isn't strictly true, I've noticed. You do have assets, you just don't seem to care very much about them. That's almost besides the point, though. If there is no joining of families, which it appears very much that there is not, why would you need marriage at all? You can love someone without being married.

What? I am from 1840 precisely. We didn't go about with dirt on our hands.

	Because we love a party. I am from 1832 and we certainly did, and not just on our hands. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
