Is anyone else completely alone here? Home-wise. No one from my world seems to be here.

Why am I here and they aren't?

[ "They" refers to one James Potter, prat extraordinare. You can bet your arse Lily Potter searched high and low for him. And she's come up empty. Completely and utterly empty. ]

Where're you from? I haven't heard of anyone else being from around the same time I am, if there's been several who say they're from Earth.

As for the other, no one seems to know.

England, 1981. Are you saying that there are people from the same world, but different years?

xenofuckno December 12 2011, 05:02:14 UTC

That's exactly what I'm saying. I've heard all different years so far, but I'm personally from 2179 most recently. Earth's still around, colonization of planets through different sectors of space is on the rise, and England hasn't just been England for a long, long time.

2179? The future?

[ Thank Merlin Lily didn't choose to use audio or video, because it took her a while to actually reply with something that wasn't keysmashing. ]

England isn't England? Has it - Is it - Well, where I'm from, England is split between Muggle and Magical.

[ What she is trying to get at, somehow, is whether magic is now something everyone knows about. She hasn't quite realised that Earth has many different kinds of Englands, ones that are completely different to her own. It might look the same, but it doesn't mean it is. ]

For you, like you're the past for me.

[ New terms to her, if Ripley isn't a history buff. Not even close. ]

Not sure what you mean by that, though if you're talking about racial divides, they're not the kind of issues that make front page anymore.

[ The ones that do are different in context. No conceptualization of what Lily is really asking after, if magic itself would be more sensible than half the rest of what Ripley's had to confront in recent years. Or on this ship. ]

Does magic exist in your world?

[ There is what she was getting at. Point blank. Though, the racism mention has her interested. But, she needs to understand, first, about how the world can have the same name but be incredibly different. ]

I'm guessing you mean magic in a way other than the magic of life. Not that I've ever run into, no.
