... Wait, did it die?

[ CAN IT?? ]

No. I mean brought to the Apartment. He's one of the local creatures. [The...only one found, but whatever.]

[And it can, if you immolate it.]

Oh. Is it safe to keep it in here...?

It's been safe so far. And he makes cleaning so much easier. He'll digest anything with enough time.

How do you know it's a he?

Because his name is Bob. Bob isn't really a girl's name.

[ that

doesn't make any sense but okay

looks around ]

You live with a lot of painters?

[Yes. That's common in Sparkles.]

Mostly it's Ptou. He's been painting lands from our homeworld.

You're from the same place? Or places, seems like.

[ these paintings are pretty varied... ]

The same planet. These are scenes from the different countries. [Will point to something that probably involves the coastline.] This is from Delphinus, my home country.

[ oh, something he can talk about less awkwardly ]

Not much of a trade center, huh?

Trade center?

Oh, no, Delphinus actually had a lot of trade. We had ships sailing out all the time in my city.

Yeah? So he just forgot to paint those?

Well, leaving them out isn't so bad either. I never saw the waters in Balbadd cleared out like that.

It usually only happened during the time where it'd storm soon that it'd get so clear. When sailors wouldn't sail out because of the bad storms to come.

But we did have rather beautiful views of the water when it was allowed to be still.

Think it would be too much to ask if we tried to get the gods to make a sea?

There is a lot of water outside. It's just more...swampy.

[ shrugs one shoulder ]

I'm not very keen on going outside, anyway.

How many people are here from your world?

Though we are probably close to some large body of water if we got flooded. [Hmmm, curious thought.]

...that would depend. Do you mean just the native born?

What, were the gods of your world kidnappers too?

[Yeah, that's a smile that's nowhere near her eyes.]

It is quite the coincidence, isn't it?

... Anyone you knew. Native-born or otherwise.

The people who weren't native born were brought after I died.

AS for people I know, there is Nes-ah, no, her name is Lumi, actually. I knew Lumi from before. There's a few other native borns, but I didn't know them personally.

There's a few gods from home though. They've been made human here.

Gods, too?

[ SHEESH??? ]

How are they deciding who to take, anyway?

The world did die eventually and with it, so did they.

It really is a good question. I couldn't even begin to guess.

[ sssubject change ]

- So it's really just the one person for you, huh? Though I guess having people familiar with your world must make some things easier, too...
