No, not in the slightest. The last place I was, we shared cabins with several other people. There were... bunk beds.

[ktiseos]

What, may I ask, is a bunk bed.

[fishingforcompliments]

There is a bed, and attached to it on a frame with a ladder, there is another bed. The one closer to the ground is the bottom bunk, and the one further up is the top.

It is higher than a standard bed is, but it allows two people to sleep in a space that would normally only fit one.

[ktiseos]

-I see. It does sound efficient, although...

Significantly lacking in any privacy, I would presume.

[fishingforcompliments]

[she nods]

Precisely. One would sacrifice privacy for efficiency, should they choose to have one.

[ktiseos]

Useful in certain situations... but certainly not long-term. I do hope you did not deal with it overlong.

[fishingforcompliments]

Seven weeks or so.

[ktiseos]

Similar to the time we spent within the Prism, then.

[fishingforcompliments]

[she nods]

That seems to be about the average length of time, though some have been shorter. The island was only two weeks...

[ktiseos]

The-- what? Do not tell me you have been two of these places.

[fishingforcompliments]

Unfortunately, this is my third such experience.

[ktiseos]

The third-

[he's a little shocked by that, brow furrowed.]

It is quite troubling, that there have not only been so many, but that any of us have been to multiple.

[fishingforcompliments]

It is. Truly, I wish I understood what it was that caused so many of us to be whisked away with such regularity.

[ktiseos]

As do I. If we knew, mayhap we could put a stop to it.

[fishingforcompliments]

That would be ideal.
