Hang out with Goodbye, enjoying her hobbies (Time -1) (Repeatable)

"Hm? Ciao? Are you here for a status report?" Your boss folded her hands upon the table and tilted her head curiously, then raised an eyebrow. "You just want to hang out, huh? I guess it gets pretty lonely sometimes... God knows I wouldn't want to hang out with those loonies all the time either. Unfortunately, I don't have a LARP group getting together today, if you were hoping to try that."

You told her you were thinking of her other hobbies... how about just watching a movie together? She seemed to know a lot about science fiction television and films.

"Oh, yes, certainly! I'm quite the film buff, ho ho!" Goodbye pushed her glasses up, giving them the sort of nerdy shine that can only be accomplished by someone who knows they're doing it; she was pleased that her nerd cred had been acknowledged. "Anything within the realm of science fiction, Nathaniel! W-Well... Except horror. I don't do horror well..."

You had imagined as much. She'd probably scream her head off watching something like The Thing. You told her that was fine; the two of you could watch something more classical science fiction.

{if Hang Out with Goodbye >0}"Excellent! Then for today, may I recommend {if Hang Out with Goodbye >= 3}we try the next few episodes of Star Trek TNG? Trust me, you aren't going to want to miss these ones! They're the classics that gives the series its fanatics! So forward-thinking! What a utopian world!"{elseif Hang Out with Goodbye = 2}Star Trek: Deep Space Nine? It's got it all! Trust me, if all you watch is the new movies, you're missing the essence of what makes old Trek great!"{elseif Hang out with Goodbye = 1}we start with a recent flick? Have you ever seen Ex Machina, Ciao? Trust me, in our world of increasingly advanced AI, it's a must-watch! This one gets pretty scary sometimes, though, so... just... cover your ears if I start screaming."

This sounded like a pretty weird way to relax, but if that's what she wanted to do, you were game for it.{endif}{endif}

After spending time watching some powerfully nerdy science fiction with Goodbye, you bid the woman herself goodbye, then returned to mission control.

What's next?
