I don't even think I have an analogy for that. A lot of it I would rather forget, but mostly because I really don't know or care that much about personal business.

Let's just stick to what we know- rejection, repression and...well, whatever it is that you do to cope that doesn't involve sharing. [He turns the camera on and his room is completely ( Read more... )

At the center of almost every galaxy is a black hole. Not just any black hole, but a supermassive black hole. [A pause and the sound of him scribbling notes.] In fact, the Milky Way has one. It's 26,000 lightyears away from our Solar System. It's the size of Uranus, but contains 4.1 million solar masses. To put it into different terms- that's 4.1 ( Read more... )

I suppose I should have some sort of connection with this day. If my calendar is right, which, on the barge, is not always a guarantee, then today is the one year mark. Hmm...this should be a reflection on what has happened or perhaps a comparison between who I was then and who I am now. What I've learned ( Read more... )

Okay. Magic.

Magic.

This is ridiculous. As if the "magic" that inherently comes with the barge isn't enough, now-ow! Dammit- we have more. And it seems to make the Admiral a worse pilot.

I don't suppose it's too much to ask for this place to make sense.

Is everyone affected by this? Doesn't that strike you as odd? More than usual?

Dark matter collection is...difficult. [He sounds groggy, like he just woke up, or, more accurately, like he hasn't slept for a while. Exhaustion might also be the reason why he actually brings up something about his past, and why his thoughts are slightly scattered. He'll get to the point eventually...]There were people at home, when we tried it, ( Read more... )

[Capa has mostly been avoiding the beach and the jungle proper, instead voting to stay along the treelines. He likes to be in the sun as much as he can, but he knows that he'll just end up with a nasty burn that won't go away for a week. So he sticks to the treeline, speaking into his communicator with a sort of awe.]The vast blackness of this ( Read more... )

[Capa's sitting on the railing, with the camera facing out, towards the abyss. It's a very precarious little perch, but he's happily oblivious to the danger. Being out on the railing means that he'd be closer to the stars. And that is the most important thing.]

A star is not just a star. To most, they're just little pinpoints of light in the sky. ( Read more... )

[There's a bit of fumbling as he struggles with the buttons. And then a heavy pause. He's muttering a few formulas under his breath. Science people may recognize various physics equations. Make them up at will, if you'd like. And then he stops mid-formula and just sighs. He's been trying to avoid saying this aloud for a while.]

I have a sister. She ( Read more... )

[The camera turns on and, for a moment, there’s just blackness. Absolute darkness. And then there’s a hint of movement and he points the camera up to the ceiling, were a whole cluster of glow in the dark stars are put. He laughs softly, but doesn’t turn on the lights and instead keeps it pointed towards his ceiling.]

Not exactly what I had before, ( Read more... )

[Capa is not amused by your multiverse, on the fritz, random people showing up event, Barge. And he shows this by being boring and trying to science it out. He's in the middle of rationalizing it all to himself when he turns the audio on.]
