"How do you sleep?" Gexor asked. "I will make the appropriate accomadations. However, I've seen the human species sleep in multiple different ways."
*Park*
"An offworlder, huh?" Cassandra asked. "You should talk to my husband. I'm sure he can help, and he doesn't blow up Egyptian cities arbitrarily."

"In a bed, lights off, dry environment," Terry answered. "But surely getting there won't take that long, will it?"

Nina said, "where would he be? the only clues i have about me is this." and she brought her long hair to her front and moved some hair to show thin, long vines. "it grows out of my head. that and the plants speak to me."

"Of course not." Gexor said. "But in case you require to spend more time on board, I want the ship prepared."
"Excuse me." Glenn said. "But could we pick up my wife before we go?"
Gexor looked confused at the term. ".....Wife?" He asked.
*Park*
"I'm not sure where he is, but he's probably looking for our son." Cassandra said. "And I can't say I know a species that can talk to plants..."

Nina sighed and said, "wait, you think he managed to get on board? if he knows of other world people, it would only stand to reason he went to where the attack was closes, right?" she said. Nina then looked up at Cassandra. "and if he is with them, then he would come and fetch you right? you two are mates, right?"

"M-mates!?" Cassandra asked, taken back by the term. She reminded herself that she was speaking to an alien, and shook her head. "Um, well yeah. But you DO know there's more to it than that, right?"

Nina looked and said, "there is more? Humans are strange, but i didn't know they were that strange" and she walked over. "since you are his mate, can you help me get on the ship?"

"Uh, not really, I don't know how to get on there, and there's no garauntee he's on board anyways." Cassandra said.

"Wife?" Glenn said, the two once again being led down the hall. "Significant other, better half, lover, apple of my eye, dearest companion, soulmate?" The omnipotent asked. "Does ANY of that ring a bell?"
Gexor shook his head. "Can't say so, no."
Glenn sighed and looked at Terry. "Can YOU explain it to him?" He asked.

Nina sighed and said, "i guess you might be right." and she looked at her. "but, just to be sure, i should stick around with you"

Terry scratched his head in thought for a bit. If none of the romantic names caught, maybe ... "It's a female of sexual interest that you remain solely with for the rest of your life, or until some event occurs that makes a continued relationship impossible. The male counterpart is called a husband. We humans are largely monogamous."

*Park*
Cassandra shrugged. "Sure, whatever turns your crank."
*Examiner Flagship*
Gexor seemed to frown. "Monogamous, hmm? How widely inefficient." The alien shrugged. "But that's your perogative. So, you want to pick up your Queen before we go to Continent Prime?"
"If that means get my wife before we go to Cairo, then yes." Glenn said.

Terry shrugged. "Our population is about half male and half female, so it's not really inefficient."

"The gender ratio isn't what's important, it's the number of able bodied drones capable of supporting the hive." Gexor said.
"Well, our "hive" is a bit overcrowded with our current technological limits." Glenn said.
*Park*
"I'm sure we could get you another one..." Cassandra said, somewhat taken aback by the hug.
