"Don't eat other citizens," - someone really thinks it's necessary to give that direction? I mean, don't get me wrong, it's definitely good to not eat other people, I would just think that it wouldn't be the best idea to bring people that might eat the other citizens. It wouldn't really be cannibalism though, right? Because if you brought someone from another planet that wasn't a human, but ate humans, then....

[Billy kind of trails off as he contemplates this - and then the fact that wow the first thing he's posting to the notwork is discussing the technical terminology of cannibalism when it comes to alien races. Awkward.]

Anyway, hi. I'm Billy. I was kind of in the middle of something back home but I'm guessing that's not really going to do anything for me in terms of getting back there, so it's probably better just to get into this whole network....thing.

Oh, yeah, one last question - so "Stark Technologies" communicator, right? That wouldn't happen to be Stark as in Tony Stark, would it?

[I mean, hey, there are other Starks in other worlds. GRRM is particularly fond of killing them.]

[Some day he will find Nelson's "crime books" this is my dream.]

Who was in it?

[ i will make sure he hears about it sooner than later. maybe making a post when the second comes out. ]

Rooney Mara plays the eponymous lead. [ since girl with the dragon tattoo never happened. ] Channing Tatum her lead romantic interest, dashing vigilante the Moonlighter.

Oh he's cute. I mean, if he's still the same as at home.

I suppose. I mean, I can imagine the appeal, at least.

Do you like Rooney Mara?

Well, she has very enticing eyebrows.

Eyebrows, huh?

[this is cute.]

Yes, her eyebrows. I think they accentuate her features in an attractive way.

[ well it had to become apparent somehow. ]

I think see what you're saying.

[he would ship it if there were an attainable goal. we'll find you a girl with nice eyebrows.]

About the same way I see what you were saying about Channing Tatum?

[ you'll just have to overcome the worst obstacle of kanaya herself and her inability to relationships. ]

Exactly like that.

Well, I'm glad we could reach this understanding, then.

Yeah.

So, why don't you tell me about this boyfriend of yours that you left back at home?

[where does he even start who knows.]

He's perfect. He's the most caring, wonderful, handsome boy on the planet. Or any planet. Or the multiverse, actually.

Sounds like you've found quite the catch.

I really have. I'm really lucky.

[ and so, without warning, the kind of question only people who profoundly hate themselves ask. ]

Do you feel you deserve him?

[ha ha ha fuck]

No.

[ and right in that moment, she knew he was a kindred spirit. ]

So, how do you address that? Something must be done to correct an imbalance of that sort.

I just try to be the best I can be. I don't know that it always works out.

And that's enough for you? You've never had the impulse to just...remove yourself from his life in hopes that it would improve things for him overall?

I have - but he needs me, too. And I trust him enough to believe it when he says that. And he loves me and he says he wants to take care of me, and I just...have to trust him, on that. And try and be the best I can for the places it's not.

You really are lucky, then.

Yeah. I am.
