question for those of you who are coming to earth OR have already come to earth!

because i'm curious: what are you most excited to do when you get back down OR what was the very first thing you did when you came back that you couldn't do on the moon :)

Comments

[quackery]

i already took a long hot bath which is what i was most excited about so now i think that's moved to the top of the list yeah

[copia]

[ that gets a laugh out of kaede, although ahiru can't hear it ]

That is certainly something to be excited about! And the animals that are around now are so amazing to see, like the mammoths!!

[quackery]

ahhhh i haven't seen a mammoth yet! that sounds so cool though

what else have you seen?

[copia]

It's so weird to see them, since they're supposed to be extinct, you know? And I am pretty sure I saw penguins and walruses...

[quackery]

!!!! i wonder if we could have pet penguins

[copia]

Who knows?

Maybe the locals can tell you if it's possible or not?

[quackery]

oh man what if we actually could

wouldn't that be the coolest thing ever

[copia]

That would be pretty cool, yeah! I don't think I'd properly care for a pet, though, what with all the chaos we go through.

[quackery]

oh that's true

maybe we could like pass it around so if anybody needed to go on a mission it would be taken care of

[copia]

True! And definitely leave a manual for whoever takes care of it, ha ha.

I'm Kaede, by the way — it's nice to meet you!

[quackery]

it's nice to meet you too! i'm ahiru. kaede is a pretty name :)

[copia]

Thank you, and so is Ahiru!

Are you staying with your roommates back down here on Earth?

[quackery]

actually i'm staying with a few close friends :) i think it'll be a nice change of pace, having people really familiar around

what about you?

[copia]

That's great! It's the same for me, actually; I'm lucky that my roommates are people I'm very close to here. We're a little family sort of and I honestly could not see myself staying anywhere they aren't.

[quackery]

that's great! who are you staying with?

[copia]

Tsubomi Kido & Shuuya Kano. [ as well as several others... ] And you?

[quackery]

oh kido is really great! it's nice to meet one of her good friends :)

stephanie brown and saul goodman

[copia]

She is! She's like my big sister, always keeping an eye out for me. :)

Saul...from the DITR? I know of Stephanie because she makes those good posts after crazy stuff happens. I almost asked her for hand-to-hand lessons, actually...

[quackery]

i'm glad you two are so close :)

yeah him. he's kind of a weird person but he's nice too. and stephanie is really great, she's brave and nice and really fun to be around :) she has a lot on her plate but i bet if she ever had more free time she'd be glad to help you

[copia]

Ah, thanks. [ ksdfg now she's blushing, even though ahiru can't see that ]

Yeah, she seems to be REALLY wrapped up in everything involving the Initiative & UE, which isn't a bad thing at all! I could ask others about hand-to-hand combat, which is why I haven't gone ahead and asked yet. Thank you for the reassurance though!

[quackery]

yeah she's really responsible :) she definitely does the best she can with all the stuff going on here. i look up to her a lot

you should talk to her either way though. even if she couldn't help you herself i bet she would be able to point you to somebody just as good

[copia]

I agree! You're lucky to be so close to her.

I'll definitely do that! Recommendations are always good. Do you know hand-to-hand combat yourself?

[quackery]

no, i'm not much of a fighter at all. i've been helping out in the clinic but i'm not sure what's happening with that now that we're down here

not here

[controlledvariable]

[duckling noooooooooooooooo

guess who just had to go have a lie down because too many feelings]

not here either
