[Sometime during the night (just late enough for the sky to have darkened completely), anyone walking outside can find Cameron standing ramrod-straight in the center of town. Not the exact center, of course, because she wouldn't just step into the fountain like that, even if it did occur to her for completeness's sake ( Read more... )

i don't sleep, gathering intel, ttly human, this isn't the future, further observation required

I'd be interested in those charts. Did you try in the library?

cameronbaum April 10 2010, 02:48:38 UTC

Not yet. I go there next, to see if they match.

no_use_running April 10 2010, 02:52:23 UTC

Match? What charts do you have already?

cameronbaum April 10 2010, 03:29:25 UTC

I don't. I'm going to see if they match the sky. [she looks back up, then back down quickly at her journal so as to explain herself in a more human way]

The constellations.

[Jack walks out and stands nearby, looking up at the sky and studying the stars, trying to find any familiar constellations.]

I've been to a lot of planets, and this sky doesn't look familiar at all.

[She looks at him, and for a moment her visual scanners detect him, but can't place him. It's all that looking at the stars, her recalibration for objects several lightyears closer is lagging. Thus it's a long moment before she nods.]

Me neither. [and then with more interest] In a spaceship?

herobydefault April 10 2010, 05:05:07 UTC

No. There's not.

cameronbaum April 10 2010, 06:06:03 UTC

[cocks head] You read a lot?

herobydefault April 10 2010, 06:30:21 UTC

No, but there's never anything specifically about this place whenever I go look. Just a ton of books about other worlds.

cameronbaum April 11 2010, 17:15:12 UTC

Then I'll make one. For everyone. [determined face]

It would take a great deal of time to create one... but it may be worthwhile.

cameronbaum April 11 2010, 17:15:36 UTC

You work at the library. Would you want it?

1week_wizard April 11 2010, 21:52:49 UTC

It would be a useful resource, yes.

cameronbaum April 11 2010, 23:30:08 UTC

[bright smile] Then I will make one for you!

This sky is unlike the one I'm used to, as well.

cameronbaum April 11 2010, 17:16:24 UTC

The ancient Greeks made patterns with the stars. They called them constellations. Do you have those?

dragoon_pride April 12 2010, 06:23:36 UTC

Patterns... Yes, we do have something like that, although it seems as if they'd differ from where you're from.

cameronbaum April 12 2010, 15:23:39 UTC

Maybe. I'm from Earth.
