So... I was wondering.

If we suddenly solved everything and were given a choice to stay here or go home, what would you choose? I've been thinking about it a lot-- [She really has, especially since finding out that they're working on finding a way for imPorts to stay or go at will. She misses Ooo, but she has more friends here than she did there, and she's happy with her life here. ... Mostly happy, anyway.] But I haven't really decided yet.

Or what about other places? Not, like, other places here. But places people you know or like here are from. Is there any place somebody's from that you'd want to visit? [That question is really just curiosity on her part. Finding out about new places is interesting!]

Yeah, getting back would be pretty important, in that case. [Depending on the fight, anyway.]

What kind of fight is it? A big thing, or just fisticuffs or whatever?

[sassguard]

It's a "saving the galaxy" kind of thing.

[ Not to toot his own horn or anything. She seems young, and nice enough, so it's probably smarter to downplay the worst of it ... though maybe she's older than she looks, too? She definitely isn't human. ]

[wayhot]

[Not human at all, but humanoid. And she's only 15, so he's not off about her being young.]

Ohh. Math!

I've never saved a galaxy or a world or anything, but I've destroyed or almost destroyed a lot of stuff! [IN BOTH GOOD AND BAD CONTEXTS...]

[sassguard]

[ Well, she is on fire. He can see how that would happen. ]

On purpose, or by accident?

[wayhot]

Both, actually. [Yyyup.]

[sassguard]

Oh. [ What exactly is he supposed to say to that. ]

I'm starting to think most of us here can say the same thing.

[wayhot]

That we've all destroyed and burned a lot of stuff?

[sassguard]

Yeah. Maybe it's a requirement for being a hero.

[ He is, of course, joking. ]

[wayhot]

Is it? I guess that'd make a lot more sense. [Right over her head.]

[sassguard]

[ Swing and a miss, huh... ]

I've blown a few things up. [ Like an entire star system. Whoops. ] Usually not on purpose, though. Mostly because people were shooting at me at the time.

[ A beat. ]

So, you've got... an interesting name.

[wayhot]

Yeah, everybody says that. But all Ooo royalty have names like mine. It's a world thing, I guess.

[sassguard]

I've never met royalty before. What's Ooo like?
