Robert Jackson asked Badger Therese:

In the Female, Recreational series, subjects are frequently transported around the U.S. by road. Has it come up yet where they are securely relocated by train, boat or plane? What if Hannah or Annabelle got shipped to Hawaii? Also when confined inside a ‘stacks’ type facility for a long period of time, how do slaves get exercise? (Apart from sex, obviously!) If they refuse sex, do they have a chained running track?

Badger Therese I can recall two instances off the top of my head where Hannah traveled by airplane. The mode of transport depended on context. When Hannah was flown from Texas to California for a prestigious research program, she sat in first class, was served a good gin, and wasn't put in restraints until the jet was about to land. But when she was transported from Florida to California as a female commodity, she was shipped far less comfortably, chained by all four limbs to the floor of her small kennel.

Annabelle's treatment on her flight to Japan (next book, due out in a few months) was probably more like Hannah's first instance of travel.

Your second question, about sex and exercise in the stacks, is an interesting one that I haven't yet personally observed and thus can't answer fully. Maybe Annabelle will experience something like that, but given the trajectory of her charmed life, I find it highly unlikely she'd ever end up in a place like the stacks. Something terrible and unexpected would have to happen. But if it does, I will make sure to stay close by her and record everything in detail.
