"The silly parts are unfortunately where life happens, good or bad. Though I very much appreciate your offence on our part."

"It'd be neat if worlds got more of a say in how their system's run? Or better if it was possible to move freely between systems."

Permalink

“I doubt humans have that kind of broad vision, but the sentiment is nice.”

Permalink

"Mhm. I think there's some species it'd work well for, though."

Permalink

“Well, let me know when you find one, hey?”

Permalink

"I haven't explored very far, but when I was hearing examples, some actually are designed to do long-term planning better than humans, who're optimized for short-term reactions. There's trade-offs to both, of course."

Permalink

“Pros and cons in every species, making each one unique,” Kim muses. 

Permalink

"Yeah, that's the - idea - though most aren't optimized for quality of life."

Permalink

“You make it seem like a game, creating life.”

Permalink

"...I guess some Judgements probably view it that way? But it's. Like - creating something beautiful. Most create things for their own glory, not wondering if their creations want to be that way, or if that's what's best for the world."

Permalink

“You’d rather make some beautiful and functional?”

Permalink

"I'd rather create beings who're happy. Maybe that means beautiful, I don't know."

Permalink

“I’ll agree with you there. I’d much rather be happy than beautiful, though it’s not often you’d be asked to make that choice by god.”

Permalink

"Yeah. I think some choice is important, though I don't know how I'd do it. I've never designed a system before."

Permalink

“I am kinda curious about that. System building. The idea of other worlds out there.”

Permalink

"I haven't seen too many, just heard bits of pieces of stories. And - they weren't the type of stuff I find interesting so much?"

Permalink

"You'd rather learn from down here?"

Permalink

"Yeah. People are - interesting."

Permalink

"I'm glad that we provide some entertainment."

Permalink

"It's not just entertainment! I like learning about people. I want to know more about the kids, and more about the captain, and every sailor and every person we've passed. I could spend an eternity just talking to people, I think."

Permalink

"I don't think I can relate to that. This has been the most talkative I think I've ever been."

Permalink

"My sister wasn't a people-person either, I don't think. I can do the talking for us, though!"

Permalink

"I would be very grateful for that." Kim smiles. "All though, people are gonna notice you more than me."

Permalink

"That might help sometimes."

Permalink

"They'll never see your shadow coming," Kim agrees.
