[ Natasha, apparently going for the insomnia vibe, is lying on her bed awake when she should be asleep. So, naturally, like any Millennial, even an older one like herself, she starts scrolling through her phone, eventually posting a cryptic-looking message to the network, which looks a whole hell of a lot like drunk keysmashing. It's actually a request for information, because you never know when you might need more codes in your metaphorical back pocket on an alien world — and since she can't sleep now, she may as well ask now. ]

[ It's actually in Vigenère cipher, her message reading: "if you can read this - please tell me what kinds of text encryptions/ciphers you use most. I need some new material to learn. Thanks."

And back in something coherent: ]

On another note, if anyone has fifty gallons of melatonin sleep aid, I could use some of that as well and would love you forever. Or at least owe you one later.

[Oh dear, what a strange series of letters. That is not a human language she had learned before. How strange. She will play with it for a bit, trying to figure out just what to do with it. But over time she'll figure it out with enough time.]

Melatonin, that is a neurochemical that humans produce when they grow tired, yes? I am sorry, I lack such things. Perhaps if you need to work off some energy you can join me at the gym.

that's the elusive one indeed. I can try that one, and if you mean now, you can even laugh if I fall asleep next to a punching bag after thirty minutes.

If you fall asleep, I will move you somewhere very comfortable to rest.
