[boredly, thoughtfully:] The more I think about it, the more believable that ridiculous revelation about the Earth falling into ruin becomes. Maybe that's just me being a bit too cynical about the incompetence of Earth-men nowadays, though. I can't think of any construction crew that eager to develop a golf course that far underground.

It's rather discouraging when you say it like that...

[beforearcadia]

[beat.]

What? The planet, the lack of alien-ish types, or the model plane thing?

[ocean_lightning]

...Ah, pardon me, that's a very good question.

I was referring to the note you made about the incompetence of...Earth-men, so to speak.

[beforearcadia]

What--you got any experience with them? Last time I was on-planet, work was pretty much abolished if you were rich enough. A planet full of lazy, dreamless slobs with their feet on top of the backs of good people.

[astrum_matris]

A model plane?

[beforearcadia]

Heh, yeah. My first mate builds them as a hobby. Sometimes people got a hold of them and let 'em fly.

/late tag is so late FFFFF

[astrum_matris]

Well, at least that always proves that they work, if nothing else.

herro |D

[beforearcadia]

Also proves I got a hard head.

[flameofheaven]

It's true, normal speculation of an "alien" type is to look far different than what a human resembles. But maybe that's not true.

[beforearcadia]

It's a bit of a let-down, I think. Well, aside from the creatures running the neverending paperwork a floor or so below.

[flameofheaven]

Right, well, we don't know how long we'll be on here, or what we'll see in the future anyways.

[beforearcadia]

A very good point, Shana. Makes the journey a lot less bleak.

[pilot_zero_two]

Maybe they try to group refugees by species when picking them up.

Or maybe it's a giant conspiracy.

[beforearcadia]

Hah. We're secretly all on our way to a giant, pan-galactic zoo for display purposes.

[pilot_zero_two]

Think there'll be a breeding program?

[beforearcadia]

Sounds pretty disasterous, if you ask me.

[00ne]

I was wondering the same thing.

Too many Earths for it not to be questionable.

[beforearcadia]

Too man--

Huh.

You mean everybody here says they're from Earth?

[00ne]

I've met several already, and confirmed that they are not from the same Earth-sphere as I am.

And it seems you are from a version of Earth as well? I don't buy 'coincidence'.

[ooc; roooollls on an elle /=u=/]

[beforearcadia]

Kind of unusual that multiple planets would all be inhabited by the same species unknowingly all calling it the same thing.

ooc; *screams quietly
