The network is a really good place to ask all sorts of questions, huh? I guess there's really not much else to use it for...

[She doesn't really understand the concept of it in general but hey.]

... Hey! Do you think if I asked nicely they'd deliver something from home to me? It would be something reeaallly worth everyone's while! I promise!

[stonewall]

You got somethin' in mind, kiddo?

[brightsided]

Maybe... [It's a secret!

Also, it's always good to hear from Snow.] If I can get it then you'll see for yourself!

It'll be reeeeeally cute.

[stonewall]

And you absolutely can't get another one here, huh?

[ Vanille if it's one of those sheep things from Pulse... ]

[brightsided]

Nope! It's one of a kind!

[........ it might be.........]

[stonewall]

[ yeah he can see those other responses HE'S ON TO YOU VANILLE ]

If askin' doesn't work out, there's all kinds of weird animals outside of the city. You might be able to find something out there.

[brightsided]

[curses!!! foiled again!!!!]

You're right about that! I found a strange kitty-cat once after all those explosions happened. It was trapped under some rubble but I was able to get someone to help it out! It was really cute.

[stonewall]

No kiddin', huh?

[ Yep, that's definitely a Vanille thing to do. He's not even surprised. ]

You've definitely got the right idea. Keep it up and one of 'em might stick around.

[brightsided]

Maybe! All the animals around here aren't very tame. They all seem feral and really untrusting of us. Maybe because we're all outsiders.

[stonewall]

They come around pretty quick if you feed 'em, though. A few show up whenever I dump scraps from the cafe.

[ and if Mr. Giant here doesn't scare them off, then they're pretty tame. ]

[biwinning]

Yes, I think they'd risk the destruction of your world for the sake of bringing you some pointless item, especially if you say please really nicely! Go ahead, try it!

audio;

[brightsided]

[why are all these weird people with horns so rude to her!!]

Well if it's going to be that much trouble then they don't need to bother! I just didn't think it would be a problem to bring over one little thing...

audio;

[biwinning]

[It's in their nature. And he's just inherently a bit rude.]

It would be. You clearly don't understand how time travel works, so don't even pretend that you do.

audio;

[brightsided]

[True dat. Sollux plz.]

I never said I did! I've never really done it before, you know! [Not really, anyway........ She is technically from 520 years ago in her canon's timeline...]

I just thought it might be nice to have something from home to brighten up the gloomy atmosphere around here.

[biwinning]

What would it even be? Because unless it'th a series of nukes to destroy UE, I doubt it'th gonna do much to "brighten things up."

[brightsided]

I meant for me! I don't really think anyone else would appreciate it... Well, maybe Fang and Snow would too.

[biwinning]

Oh, tho you're just really selfish. Good to know you're only in it for yourself.

[deducta]

I didn't realize that they actually listened to us. But asking couldn't hurt.

[brightsided]

They do sometimes! Well, someone told me they did anyway. So I guess I'm curious to find out.

[deducta]

Do you mind if I ask what you're looking to bring over?

[If it worked, it would be good information for the future should Joan need anything.]

[brightsided]

I guess... a pet! Kind of. More like a wild animal that comes from my home. But it's really harmless and cute!

video;

[collectedloot]

What are planning on asking them to bring?

video;

[brightsided]

A pet! Sort of... It's really cute though!

video;

[collectedloot]

Oh, really? Is it a dog, or maybe a cat?

video;

[brightsided]

Nothing that ordinary! It's kind of... a sheep, I guess?

video;

[collectedloot]

A pet sheep? I don't really see why that would be a problem... But maybe you should just go ahead and ask them?

video;

[brightsided]

I might! But I'll only do it if they promise there won't be any dangerous consequences by doing so. A few people told me there might be.

video;

[collectedloot]

Consequences? Like what?

[It's just a sheep... What could happen?]

video

[fintastic]

I think they would if they could, but it wouldn't be safe. What are you looking for?

video

[brightsided]

[oh finally the non-rude person with horns appears]

Oh... really? I thought it might be okay for something that small but I don't want to risk anything if that's not the case.

I wanted to bring an animal... Just something really cute from home.

video

[fintastic]

It never hurts to ask! But all this travel in time and space helped the UE find someone's world, and they destroyed it, so I guess they try not to do it as much.

Is there a pet back home that you miss?

video

[brightsided]

That's true... I haven't forgotten that. I guess I just thought something so small and harmless would be okay. I guess I shouldn't risk it, huh?

Kind of! I never got to own one before... but I always wanted to.

[Video]

[followupquestion]

Doesn't sound like they have that sort of control, otherwise I think they might have been more selective in who they brought here. Not that it costs anything to ask, but don't get your hopes up.

[Video]

[brightsided]

Yeah... you might be right about that. [She sort of hangs her head a bit, sulking. Oh well...] Someone also told me it's dangerous and that the UE might find and destroy my world if they allow travel to it. I wouldn't want to risk that either.

[Video]

[followupquestion]

[Renee does feel slightly sorry for her] I don't think most of us would, but that doesn't make it wrong to not want a piece of home.

Though, if they can allow travel....huh, that's interesting.

[Video]

[brightsided]

They use to, anyway! They might not even allow that anymore because of all that's happened. [but Vanille isn't 100% sure........... she doesn't really pay attention to these things.]

[Video]

[followupquestion]

Still, makes you wonder just how much control they really have over who comes and goes.
