The Tale of Zuko ☄ Book 01; Chapter 01 ☄ Video

[deconflagration]

[ He's been on the ship for about a week and has maybe stepped foot into his assigned room a total of once. Most of the week was spent being in shock, angsting over his planet-go-boom situation and analyzing all the people. It wasn't good enough to lose all the things he held dear once; he had to lose everything he held dear twice. WHY HIM? Such is

Sounds like you came from a someplace on the rough side. Where people are from really doesn't factor much, so don't worry there.

[deconflagration]

Don't worry?

[video]

[dontgetcute]

The way you asked sounded like you were checking for your own sake. Or I could just be hearing things.

[video]

[deconflagration]

It's not that. Believe me, I'd like to stop worrying. But it's easier said and done.

Kind of nice, isn't it? [c: Other than the refugee vs natives thing...]

Most of the refugees tend to get along. I suppose it's that... band together in support of a common cause sort of situation...

[deconflagration]

[ Allen, are you withholding information?! ]

Yeah. It's nice.

[ Doesn't change the fact 100% of the people he loved are dead now. Or stuck in a timeloop. Or a wormhole. Or... something. ]

There was a place like that in my world. Despite the war, a lot of refugees found their way there and started their lives over there.... But compared to this, it was a much smaller scale.

[crownedwalker]

[Wh-whaaaat? Nooooo. See, he said the refugees get along. :|]

It's good to hear they could put aside their differences. It's amazing what a small group of people are capable of... On this large scale, just imagine.

[deconflagration]

[ Don't get Zuko's hopes up by failing to mention the existence of conflict! Shame!! ]

Sometimes, people can do amazing things. I'm glad this time it's something good.

[ And since he might as well get to know people since no one from his world is present: ]

...I'm Zuko by the way. Thanks for the information.

I've been waiting for this~

[unetrustworthy]

...I know what you mean.

All packed for your field trip?!

[deconflagration]

There was war in your planet too?

/grabs toothbrush

[unetrustworthy]

...yes.

Definitely gonna be an overnighter.

[deconflagration]

[ "That's rough, buddy." ]

I'm sorry. That's... gotta be rough.

[Oh hey look more ponies.]

If there is war here, I haven't noticed it. Most do tend to get along with each other.

[deconflagration]

War is impossible to notice over time. It may be good at being kept under wraps for a while, but it's always revealed sooner or later.

[ He's beginning to think talking ponies and other... talking animals outnumber humans. ]

So people tend to get along here, huh....

Re: [Video]

[thesunislaw]

Passively, from what I have seen, however the locals to seem to show some hostility to refugees.

[Video]

[deconflagration]

What kind of hostility?

[video]

[armorumvigiles]

[Well, Zuko, that's a statement that is worrying in that you suggest that you only know war!]

Unity can arise from any situation, whether it be in times of peace or not.

But to answer your question-- nay, there is no war here.

[video]

[deconflagration]

[ HONORRRRRRRRRR. Also ignore that one tag. LJ randomly posted it. ]

Unity might be common, but just because it's common doesn't mean it's strong enough to always work.

[...]

None at all?

[video]

[armorumvigiles]

We maintain unity through peace on this ship, its seems. It is something that we all grow accustomed to.

[Zukooooo IT'S TIME TO BELIEVE!!]

[video]

[deconflagration]

[ KIND OF HARD TO BELIEVE WHEN THERE'S BEEN A CENTURY-LONG WAR GOING ON. ]

...Sounds like you've been here a while.
