KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!!!!!! Posts: 3,891 Group: TOS 1000 post angel Member #6,084 Joined: October 5, 2012	I have regifted and have no problem with it, although as Spock pointed out, one must be careful not to give the same gift back to the person that gave it to you in the first place. That might cause some hurt feelings. Also, if Grandma Mabel spends a month knitting you a sweater and it disappears after she gives it to you and she never sees you wearing it, that might cause some hurt feelings, so you should be considerate of the people that give you stuff, as well, depending on what the gift is.

	Once Ixalla was ready, Tathrelle cornered her. �Before we leave for work, I just want to tell you, I�m sorry. I guess I sort of shut down last night. I know you were in pain and I wasn�t too terribly supportive.� There was a wall covering in the main part of their chamber, something that Tathrelle hadn�t noticed before. She stared at it for a second and then shook her head. Outside, a disembodied voice announced from a hidden speaker, �It is time to travel to all daytime places of employment. Transportation sleighs are available and ready. Citizens are encouraged to thank the sleigh drivers at the end of a successful transport. The government recommends haste, and requests that all pregnant persons be given preference for seating in their designated areas.� A little distracted, Ixalla just asked, �Pain?� Untrustworthy - by me, actually. It's for sale on Amazon - Yeah, I'm a published author jespah My author page on Facebook Author of Untrustworthy I blog about Startrek fanfiction.. Honk if you love silence.
