[ 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.

No melatonin, but I can offer you a drinking buddy?

You know that just sounds like a challenge, right?😂

and drinking buddies for sleep sounds hilarious enough I could take you up on that. (Also, a very my dad thing that I can see him saying 'vodka put you right to sleep, when I was 12 my father gave me whole row of shots one night')

[ Alexei never said this but she can still hear him saying something like it. just 'questionable weird grouchy Soviet dudes' things. ]

Maybe it is.

Well, I'm around if you want to test that lovely family proverb.
