Relationship Status Uncertainty in the Goddam Far Future
It's the distant, distant future. They lost count of the years, that's how distant. You and your space-faring partner have been spending so much time along together that your relationship has gotten a bit intimate... you haven't really talked feelings or anything much, though, so you're unsure if this is just a fwb thing, or worse, like maybe Jones is basically 'prison gay,' and will drop you like a bad space habit when he sees a female humanoid again...? You better figure this out quick, because the next stop is a highly populated trading hub, Thutmose 2, and Jones keeps bringing up all the opportunities you guys will have to unwind and mingle with new people. You're even pretty sure there's a brothel there.
