What gave you that idea? Haha.

I guess I won't be keeping it secret much longer if I get involved with this, so yeah. I am.

What do you want to know about it?

[Because he knows you're going to ask.]

[d33tached]

[A lot is the answer, but for starters:]

How does one actually live in outer space?

Did you live on a different planet? A different galaxy, perhaps?

[hellrisen02]

Nah, I'm from the Earth's orbit. Man-made habitats have existed for about 200 years, when I come from.

They're called colonies, there's hundreds of them. I was born on a colony in the Lagrange-2 cluster, located on the backside of the moon-Earth orbit. They look just like cities, except everything is internally gravitational.

Imagine if you looked up but instead of sky, you saw the other half of the city. Like the Earth turned inside out- that's a colony.

[d33tached]

I see.

[Well, he's trying to picture it, anyway.]

Are these something like man-made planets?]

[hellrisen02]

Do you?

More like a donut. I've read, early on, there were hypothetical models using an internalized sphere, but they were scrapped in favor of this design for the majority of colonies.

wtf is that bracket doing there rip me

[d33tached]

[Donuts, you say?]

I see.

[He's...starting to get it? A little? Maybe?]

As you may well imagine, such things did not exist in the world from whence I came.

Not to my knowledge, anyway.

[hellrisen02]

[Delicious, spinny space donuts.]

You say that a lot and I'm never quite sure if you do or not

I figured, I've never come across a single imPort who was familiar with them- not even other space-faring ones.

[d33tached]

Would that mean that you have yet to come into contact with another ImPort from your world, Shinigami?

Aside from the obvious.

[Can you hear him rolling his eyes?]

[hellrisen02]

I meant amongst those not from my world, obviously.

[Not entirely an answer.]

[d33tached]

[He noticed.]

That doesn't answer my question.

[hellrisen02]

I'm glad you noticed!

[It's cute you think the call out will produce an answer, Deedee.]

[d33tached]

Why won't you tell me?

You've already made me aware of your son. Have I not yet proven that I can be trusted?

[Salty.]

[hellrisen02]

Not everything is a matter of trust, Deedee.

And not necessarily of mine, either.

[And also Heero punches hurt :(((]

Maybe you'll meet them someday.

[d33tached]

"Them"?

[He's still going to attempt at prying, even if he knows that it will likely get him nowhere.]

[hellrisen02]

Text, Deedee. It's text.

[Mmm-hm.]

[d33tached]

Yes.

What is your point?

[hellrisen02]

Know when to quit.

[d33tached]

[S i g h.]

Fine.
