    Summary

    Since you’re a grown man, you only spend, like, five minutes complaining. What are you going to do, not graduate over three credits? No way. But you’re kind of irritated, because you’ve had your classes picked since June, and you’re also kind of embarrassed, because you’ve never taken anything in the social science department before, so you’ll be taking a 100-level as a senior.

    Reading the course list over your shoulder, Dave points at the screen. “Dude, if you took this one, you’d have Dirk for a TA.”
    “That one?” The course title - Gender, Sexuality, and Media - doesn’t track with your idea of Dave’s brother at all. “Why?”
    “He’s doing a sociology Master's.”
    “No, I know that,” you say. “I just didn’t think sociology was, like-” You pause. “I didn’t know he was doing gender and sexuality stuff.”
    “Oh.” Dave shrugs. “Yeah, that’s his specialization.”

    Summary

    Across the room, Dirk Strider stares you down. You get the feeling, if he weren’t wearing his dumb triangle shades, the two of you would be making some seriously intense and uncomfortable eye contact. It’s nearly impossible to look away. He’s posted against the wall, nursing a can of orange soda, not talking to anyone. Just like you.

    Except you’re drinking hooch, not gross Fanta.

    (Or, John Egbert is clueless and Dirk Strider doesn't have a clue.)

    Summary

    John is revived on Theseus about a year into the trip, and he’s come back both ascended and depressed. He disassociates often, which for him is a lot more literal than most. Dirk brings out a side of sadism John didn’t realise he had in him and John brings out sadomasochism that Dirk was well aware he had in him. It’s kind of romantic.
