I've got a proposal for the ones here who have skills in advanced tech. Think of it as a challenge for a lucrative business deal as there will be work for the person who can prove that they're the best.

If you know about robotics, gadgets and electronics - from this world or others - I want to speak with you.

You prove you're worth it and we can make an arrangement. I'll only take the best.

Comments

[cadbane]

No, but as I've said, it wastes my time.

Is this the way you respond to any serious requests?

[momchester]

Is this the way you respond to any jokes?

[cadbane]

Only the ones that aren't funny.

[Which to him would be 99% of them. He's not easily amused.]

[momchester]

You're very rude, you know.

[cadbane]

That's not the worst thing I've ever been called.

[momchester]

I'm not trying to break any world records, here.

[cadbane]

So I take it you really know nothing about building droids.

[momchester]

Absolutely nothing. I still think the Internet is big news.

[cadbane]

So you aren't from this planet?

[He doesn't immediately think of different timelines.]

[momchester]

I'm from Earth, but- it's complicated. I was from 1983.

I'd only been in the 21st century for a few months when the Porter brought me here.

[Okay, time to reign in the wife.]

BABE.

[audio]

[momchester]

Hm?

[audio]

[failedparenting]

C'mon.

[audio]

[momchester]

What?

[cadbane]

So the Porter likes to mess with its own citizens as well.

[momchester]

No, I'm not from THIS Earth. A different one- kinda similar on the surface, but different.

[cadbane]

How can you really tell unless you know your own future?

[momchester]

Because my Earth doesn't still have the Soviet Union, and it definitely doesn't have hovercars, glowy cell phone tattoos, or the five Porter cities.

[cadbane]

Hm. Interesting.

I hadn't even heard of this planet before. In any form.

[Even though he is rather dressed as if he just stepped out of a Wild West show.]

[momchester]

That's okay. I probably haven't heard of yours.

[cadbane]

You're not missing anything.
