[Vic's voice is a bit shifty, but he clears his throat first before asking.]

So, um... if someone's not listed anymore here on the ship, what exactly does that mean? Just wondering.

They are no longer registered on Thor's records and therefore, they've left the ship.

Re: [Text] electromexican August 24 2011, 23:58:43 UTC

... So that's it then. They just jumped ship because they felt like it. [Vic finds that incredibly hard to believe, especially from Stephanie. Not that he knew here all that well but she just... didn't seem the type.]

Re: [Text] chocogun August 25 2011, 01:05:40 UTC

They don't leave on their own accord.

Re: [Text] electromexican August 25 2011, 03:06:34 UTC

They don't? Does this have to do with that Drive thing?

Re: [Text] chocogun August 25 2011, 10:38:18 UTC

In a way, yes. The ID creates wormholes and people arrive and leave through them. When someone is gone it means they were taken back to their world through a wormhole.

Re: [Text] electromexican August 25 2011, 19:31:37 UTC

[And Vic's just so grateful for the layman's terms. Seriously.]

So they're still alive somewhere then? Even if it's not here?

Re: [Text] chocogun August 25 2011, 21:03:32 UTC

They are alive back in their original planet, during a time the planet still exists.

Re: [Text] electromexican August 27 2011, 22:49:59 UTC

Really? Guess that's better than being here in a way. Good to know.

Re: [Text] chocogun August 28 2011, 22:48:52 UTC

I'll be blunt: it's not better.

If they don't return, they will eventually catch up with the planet's destruction. And be destroyed along with it.

Sounds like people are doomed either way.

Re: [Text] chocogun August 29 2011, 11:02:09 UTC

You consider being on Thor "doom"?

Re: [Text] electromexican August 30 2011, 19:53:45 UTC

Well people are here 'cause their world's blown up and they can just go right back whenever and maybe not avoid being blown up with it. I mean, just being is better than being totally obliterated, but it's not exactly great knowing that you could just wind up where you were before.

Re: [Text] chocogun September 1 2011, 08:59:10 UTC

True. But the way I see it, everyone will die sooner or later, either because your planer blew up or because you get hit by a bus. Thinking about it or that you might get sucked by a wormhole won't achieve anything.

"Doom" is only so if you want it to be so. Call it a possibility.
