*it is a semi-normal day on the starship, Oberon (when are we going to see starship, Titania?). the girls are doing chores, listening to music, playing video games, bugging Ryd, and other things. the girls decide to go to the Barton pub and see if they can pick up a conversation. when they get there, there are pictures of the ISS Node 3*

selene: what's going on here?

*people within the pub are talking about the Node 3 and what it should be named*

luna: i would say that there is going to be a war between naming the Node 3 Gaia and some other unimportant name.

himeko: why? Gaia's an awesome name for the Node! even though I have no idea what it is for.

yukiko: first of all, it's going to be part of the International Space Station. second of all, look. *she points to a poster. it has a picture of Stephen Colbert on it (you know, that stupid, smart-a** comedian? yeah, that one)*

selene: who is that?

luna: *clicks into a messaging device* Ryd, find out everything you can about the subject on this poster. *points the device towards the poster and takes a picture of it, sending it to Ryd*

himeko: well, while she's busy with being as boring as hell, i would say that that guy is...

selene: is?

himeko: is...

yukiko: can we get on with it

himeko: JESUS!!!

*anime fall*

yukiko: *gets back up* how can that be Jesus?

himeko: i says so!

selene: just because you say so, doesn't mean you're right.

himeko: yes it does!

yukiko: no it does not. he is not Jesus and you know it.

himeko: okay then, who is he?

selene: it's obvious he's Tom Brokaw!

himeko: he's too young looking to be that old bat.

yukiko: you're both wrong.

himeko and selene: then who the hell is he?!

yukiko: *calmly* Stephen Colbert.

himeko and selene: WHO???!!!

luna: Stephen Colbert. *walks to them with information of said comedian on the device* he's a comedian from a place called South Carolina. he's very well-known to the Terrans and has penned a book.

selene: what book?

yukiko: I Am America (And So Can You!)

selene: you know about that book?

yukiko: i've read it from cover to cover about six times. it gets funnier each time you pick it up.

selene: that sounds interesting!

himeko: whatever, i'm putting my money on Gaia!

yukiko: oh please, Colbert got his message first. he'll trump Gaia anyday!

himeko: *gasps* you dare go against Gaia?!

yukiko: of course i do. i mean, there are lots of things named Gaia.

luna: there are also things named after Colbert, too.

himeko: are you taking my side?

luna: is that a problem?

himeko: well, it's just that it never happens. then again, you don't have any humor unless there's alcohol involved.

selene: well, i put my money on Mr. Colbert. I mean, this is the first time that NASA equipment will be named after an actual person! *sorry, but Apollo doesn't count. they think that he's only a god and don't know that there are many people named Apollo*

luna and himeko: Gaia!

yukiko and selene: Colbert!

luna and himeko: Gaia!!

yukiko and selene: Colbert!!

luna and himeko: GAIA!!!

yukiko and himeko: COLBERT!!!

*what will happen when voting finally closes on March 20? will the ISS Node 3 be called Gaia or Colbert? you decide 'cause i am so not doing it!!!!*
