Excerpt: "Sparks Nevada, if you say 'gross' one more time, we are going to cease copulating."

"Sparks Nevada, if you say 'gross' one more time, we are going to cease copulating."

"If you keep calling it that, we are definitely going to cease."

"What should I call it?"

"...Nothing. Come here."

"..."

"..."

"What is that?"

"You may ignore it."

"That's not what I asked."

"It is unimportant. Do not stop."

"It is about to be very important."

"You will say it is gross."

"Probably. Still waiting."

"It is a swim bladder."

"But there isn't any water on Mars, why do you have a swim bladder? Also--"

"Do not."

"But it is--"

"Shush. I will stroke your appendages if you do."

"Well, you never said you were such a romantic, Croach."

"I am not."

"I know. You should probably put it back. Your swim bladder. Don't think we're going to-- uhh!"

"Do you need this fluid back?"

"No."
