Twenty minutes later, Chel checked the bottle of Aloe. There was a little bit of green goo in the bottom, but most of it she had rubbed onto Lexx's back. It seemed to have helped considerably. Lexx was relaxed now and his back felt better. He sighed happily, leaning over his pillow on the couch.
"Lexx,…" Chel sat on the couch next to Lexx. She had noticed it was unusually quiet in The Rift. "I just realized that none of the dice are here. Where are they?"
"They're all down in the biosphere,… except for Stealth," replied Lexx. He was grateful they weren't around. He really did not want them seeing him like this and it would have been very awkward and uncomfortable if any of them had wandered into the living area.
The dice were indeed in the biosphere, but not of their own choice. Epsy was laying in front of the only way out and sleeping. Most of the other dice had given up waiting on Epsy to move and were now dozing elsewhere. Most of the dice spent a great deal of time sleeping and playing anyway, so it was no bother to them.
Rook and Dash were the only two awake and they weren't going too close to the sleeping sallomandyr. "I dare you to jump over Epsy, Dash," Rook whispered to the sivarile.
"Rook," Dash's ears swiveled back in annoyance and a corner of his mouth rose to show off a single fang, "Do you think I'm crazy? She's become more psycho and unpredictable than Stealth! One minute she's normal,.. the next she's all snappy! She actually tried to bite my nose off because she didn't like one of my rhymes…" Dash sniffed indignantly. "I'm suffering a creative lapse as it is with my poems without being snapped at."

If you don’t have aloe a good remedy for sunburns is one cup of water with two-three tablespoons of vinigar in it. You put it on a wash cloth and apply to the burn.

Oooh, I’ll have to remember that, thanks!

Now, I’ve had this suspicion for a while now, but it would seem, that Epsy is ‘suffering’ from one of two conditions, which are typical for females, both of which are directly related to hormonal chaos.
One of them…the one Chel went through only recently…occurs periodically, pretty much once a month, while the other one occurs, when…well, let’s just say that Epsy and Zeta have been pretty friendly as of late 😛

Ohhhh, that’s true, they have been! …Which could be why Stealth was both disgusted with and jealous of them when she saw them napping together in the forest on the island (the day that Lexx brought Chel to meet Kane)? Disgust possibly because of the acts that they may’ve taking part in prior to the actual sleeping that we saw, and jealousy because of the lack of anything of the sort able to go on between herself and Dash? O_o I think my mind just got blown o_O

I know, I love all the little details that seem so insignificant but come up later ^_^ That’s some master storytelling right there ^_^

And disgust at the fact that they would risk having a child. Remember what she said earlier? Dice’s children are hunted down and killed. I have the feeling she does like Dash, but wouldn’t risk bring a child into the world that would be immediately slaughtered.

This is a bizarre alien species. I see no reason why it can’t be both.
Then again, if it was both, she’d have done something like rip Lexx’s arm off, and we all know Epsy would never do anything violent like that.
