Tube time.
Transcript
Mel: Sigh… I don’t know. It’s not like he’s talking to me.Talita: I’ll go check.
Mel: Oh, real quick– Could you send me those old schematics you drafted for your apartment?
Talita: Uh, sure. Why?
Mel: You’ll find out!
Mel: (walking away cheerfully) Don’t trip on the bug ferrets!
Talita tugs her cart of phone boxes further into the facility, exiting the vehicle bay and entering a hallway with bug ferrets in it. They are low-stanced hexapodal aliens with bug-like legs on fuzzy tubular bodies covered in whiskers, and not very covered in clothes. They have a variety of large spotted fur patterns. They tap each other's arms and quietly vocalize.
SFX: WUFF. YIP. HURF.

New centaur-friendly residence in the works, maybe? I’m not exactly clear on what Mel’s in charge of around here.

Compared to the other languages on display here English feels so utilitarian and blocky here. Its interesting!

I like that the bug ferrets jacket pattern looks like Starfleet badge insignias.

I like the detail of one of the English signs being taped onto the wall while the avian sign is bolted onto the wall.
Also, yay! Bug ferrets! I wonder if it’s one huge married family who all came in together.

At first I thought that one ferret’s outfit was just “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA” and thought honestly, fashion icon.

given the size difference between Centaurs and bug ferrets I could really see them getting underfoot
