Quick question. There's no obligation to answer, of course, I've just gotten myself wondering. Haven't found a chance to ask.

Has anyone else on board already got experience with being abducted from their own universe? I'm really doubting the odds of it only being me, but I can't say I'm known for good luck in guessing my odds either. I wasn't expecting it the first time.

Thought it might be nice to know.

What was your other universe like?

Makes you start to wonder what the point is in taking captives captive. But maybe that falls in with random selection.

In my case, got t'go back home for a couple years 'fore this place happened. Don't explain why the hell I keep endin' up in space, though. Somethin' funny 'bout a lug like me surrounded by robots an' all this blinkin' shit, I guess.

Seems like there might be quite a few of us hidden away out here.

Memories to be cherished forever, I'm sure.

Not out of my universe, no. But I'd be very interested to hear about your previous experience, if you don't mind sharing.

Can't promise I'll do much of a job of it. I've fallen out of storytelling.

[hostage]

Yup.

Maybe I ought to start setting up group meetings. Unwanted Holidays and You.

[jilt]

We've not really spoken of whence you came, dear. But perhaps you'll share, when you've a spare moment.

[invalided]

Hope that's not your way of saying you want torrid details.

I've spoken with a great many who have undergone such an experience.

[invalided]

Does seem like we have a few coming out of the woodwork here.

Should you really be so ready to admit to your strong
propensity for being kidnapped? Though I have heard
the first step is admitting you have a problem.

Shut it. Pretty sure this latest one is seeing me done.

[ Davesprite likes orange, then. He is not sure what he expected, truly. ]

Right, Davesprite, I remember. Think we're doing surprisingly well for numbers so far. Better than I'd expected, at least.

[meddler]

It really all depends on how you define "abducted". :)

[invalided]

Removed from without given consent? The usual I suppose.
