There was just the standard junk food today. No added extras. Ted is at the front of the room wearing a gas mask. Don't mind the heavy breathing and weird sounds. It's a side effect of what he's got.

"I've got, like, the Antarctic giraffe flu, dudes." Voo-ksh. "So keep back or the germs of doom'll come after you. More about Colonial music." Voo-ksh. "They like wailing and strings as well as their percussion. Wailing, strings and percussion. What's with that?" Voo-ksh. "Oh, and the Colonies can travel through space and stuff. I wonder what the acoustics are like on a space ship or a space suit." Voo-ksh. "Since there's no other noise in space, if you had music playing it'd be like really clear, so using stuff that echoes good like wailing and strings and drums in your music would totally add to the effect. So would electric guitars, but these dudes don't really use those." Voo-ksh.

Discussion: "If you were floating through space in a space suit until you ran out of air or burned up in a sun or hit a floating sperm whale, and you could only listen to one song or piece of music for the rest of your life because you're gonna die out there, what would you listen to? Totally feel free to argue with each other about whose choice is better." Voo-ksh.

"Let My Love Open the Door by Pete Townsend," Marty said. "No question."

"Dude, you're way off. Blitzkrieg Bop by The Ramones," Cameron argued.

"You're both wrong," Angela says. "It should be something that makes you feel peaceful, and all that, right?"

""Under the Milky Way," by the Church."

"Hey... My song is peaceful. At least to me it is," Marty countered. "Though I have to agree that your song is better than Cam's."

Angela thinks about it for a second. "Okay, yours is peaceful. I just don't wanna go to my death to the strains of classic rock, y'know? Or punk. Though I want Cam to pick the music if I ever need to fight in a war, or something."

"Oh definitely. If the situation wasn't floating through space, I'd choose something different and more... um.. action-ey"

Cameron scowled at Marty. "Floor traitor."

"What? Because I question your song I'm a traitor to the floor?" Marty retorts. "How does that work?"

Cameron shrugged. "Sure, go be logical about it."

"You attacked my 2nd floor cred, how am I supposed to react?"

No. Marty wasn't pouting. Really.

Cameron sighed and definitely didn't cave for the non existant pout. "I'm sorry, man. That was low. It's just... lots of exam stress. You're my 2nd floor homie."

Marty nods. "Exam stress can be a killer. Hopefully Logan's... party will relieve most of it."

"Yeah, can't wait for it to get started." Cameron agrees even if he sounds more terse than eager.

"Yeah, same here," Marty said in a distracted tone.

"Dude, you'll be peaceful for the rest of eternity. You want something that kicks ass and makes you go down in a flame." Cameron shakes his head.

"But wouldn't you already be freaked out? You don't need music that would make you spazz more."

"Dunno, quiet music leaves you time to overthink it. This should encourage you to face death full on."

"I'm with Cam," Pip said. "Maybe, I dunno, some German Industial. Like... Rammenstien! I always liked Engle."
