Tell me something interesting about you or your world, Tranquility.

[She's bored and needs entertainment.]

And I mean interesting by the way.

[helpmeguideit]

The fact that there's nothing interesting could, in itself, be deemed interesting.

Hello, Bela.

audio.

[onsilksheets]

I think you're deliberately holding back on me, Charles.

[She sounds amused.]

But anyway, hello. How are you doing?

audio.

[helpmeguideit]

Am I? Nothing to really hold back on, Bela.

[ He sounds amused, too, really. ]

I have seen better days. How are you, darling?

audio.

[onsilksheets]

I'm not too bad. No real complaints.

[Definitely a good thing in her book.]

Why, what's wrong? What happened to you?

Voice

[bailedontheempire]

[Yeah, he'll tell you about Alderaan. Alderaan is awesome.]

Unlike most major galactic centers, Alderaan is not heavily urbanize. We build our cities on cliff faces and on stilts in seas in order to leave the environment undisturbed.

Voice

[onsilksheets]

Isn't that considerate, if a little dangerous to do. Unless of course you have a very solid foundation for the cities to be built upon but I digress.

Alderaan is a planet?

Voice

[bailedontheempire]

Our architechts are highly skilled in building to these standards. Alderaan is my homeworld.

Voice

[onsilksheets]

Tell me more about it. The people, the economy, the political climate, things like that.

In return I will tell you about my world.

Audio

[ridesthesun]

I can think of several moons that are actually close enough to the planet they orbit to allow animals to migrate between them without difficulty.

[What? Xenobiology is fun.]

Audio

[onsilksheets]

Well, that is interesting. I'm afraid that I can't say the same about my own universe. [A pause.] What are these animals like, the ones that migrate?

Audio

[ridesthesun]

I've gathered from a lot that my universe has some...oddities not in other worlds, so I can't say I'm surprised.

But what are they like? Well, they range from small birds to twenty meter long flying super-predators that are capable of withstanding missile blasts. [She laughs faintly.] Fortunately, those are relatively rare.

Audio

[onsilksheets]

Thank God for that. [Referring to the super-predators of course.] My world doesn't have the predators like you described but it's still full of dangerous creatures.

The kind of creatures that you wouldn't want to encounter if you aren't prepared to deal with them.

[corp]

We live with dinosaurs.

[onsilksheets]

If you're referring to the ship itself, I knew that already.

What about you in particular?

text.

[corp]

I meant at home, but yeah. That was a lie. My home is really kinda average. I'm really kinda average. Sucks, huh.

text.

[onsilksheets]

Maybe you shouldn't sell yourself short. You've managed to survive on a dangerous spaceship that has the potential to kill you, That counts for something, yeah?

[ex_inventive578]

Everything about me is interesting. I don't do the boring bits. You'll have to be more specific.

video.

[onsilksheets]

Someone thinks very highly of themselves. [She's amused.] All right. First thing that pops into your head then. Is that specific enough?

video.

[ex_inventive578]

I invented cheese.

[kringlefuck]

Everything tried to eat me and 400 something-nother years in the future the world was taken over by an evil alien fish princess!
Is that rather interesting? There were also 10 foot spiders where i came from!

text.

[onsilksheets]

[Just give her a few moments to process that onslaught of information before responding.]

In your case I think the word 'interesting' is an understatement. Screwed-up would be a lot more apt.

I do have a question though. How do you know what happens in the future of your world? Did someone tell you or are you a psychic?

text.

[kringlefuck]

I say its exciting! The spiders were especially fascinating even when they wrapped you up in a web!

Ummmm.
My friend told me and was trying to convince me for the longest. I feel rather bad for not believing him soon enough but his technology is advanced to where he can instant message me in the past. We met on the internet.

[heister]

Ah, but what if there's none to say?

[onsilksheets]

Oh, it's you. Hello.

[There's a smile in her tone.]

Make something up then. I mightn't be able to tell if it's the truth or not.

[heister]

You're going to think that I'm so boring if I don't say something very compelling, aren't you?
