Dear Condor,
It’s nice to hear from you. I know that you weren’t writing that open
letter directly to me, but it felt very personal, even though I’ve never
experienced anything like what you did. I’ve heard more about you from
Corinthia. I’ve known about your whole situation almost as long as she has.
You and I have a lot in common. My grandfather was the Chief Helmsman of the
ship that brought us to this planet, and before that, he was a space shuttle
pilot, and before that, an airline pilot. I spent a lot of time on the
bridge with him at the helm as we were on our way out here. He would tell me
stories about all the places that he used to travel to back on Earth. I’m
younger than you, so I have never set foot on your world before. I guess
that’s what fascinates me so much, because I feel like I have all these
somewhat similar personal experiences. I know that they’re not my own,
though. I dunno, I suppose I just felt a connection with you that I’m
probably making up in my own head. As for clothes, I do like them, but not
necessarily any more than anyone else. I gravitated towards this job
partially because there was an opening, and partially because I probably
have even less of an interest in going outside than Corinthia does. I just
want to stay in my little room where it’s safe. My work area doesn’t even
have a window, because some of the rooms have to be on the interior
sections, and they can’t all be lavatories and closets. My job is really not
that hard. It may be more involved than your sister’s on a day-to-day basis,
but there’s a whole lot less pressure. If I mess something up, I can usually
fix it before anyone else sees it. The truth is that anyone could do this,
because the fabricators do most of the work. I don’t even know how to sew by
hand all that well. I did learn, but I don’t use those skills at work. I’m
mostly there in a supervisory role. The machines aren’t hard to operate, but
rather than training everyone who needs clothes, they only worry about
making sure that I know them, and I make sure that nothing gets screwed up.
It’s pretty low-key. I have some free time, which I typically spend making
up new designs. I’m not exceptional at it, but there are no deadlines, so I
eventually figure out what it needs to look like. Corinthia has actually
tested out a lot of my own clothes for me. She says she likes them, but you
never really know, right? She could just be being polite. I did design the
outfit that I’m wearing in the attached photo, so you can tell me what you
think. Be honest. Cori thinks there’s too much cleavage, but maybe you have
a different opinion?
Hugs and kisses,
Velia
PS: I like your outfit too. It fits you well, though I would imagine just
about anything does with a body like that. Trust me, I'm a professional.
