The crew, led by Captain Spacedawg, felt the palpable cultural pride—and pretense—of Quebec Prime, where the locals, despite their interstellar capabilities, clung to an air of Earthly French sophistication. “Judgmental, pretentious, and pretending to be something they aren’t… French,” Spacedawg mused quietly as they docked at the station.
