Fourth Mission

May 11, 2009 23:06

Mother's Day? It's been a while since I've seen a holiday like this celebrated with such... enthusiasm. MOMO, I hope you didn't go to too much effort for that drone's sake. Relm, I'd argue otherwise. Did you do something for Jill ( Read more... )

Wildly divergent, you say? How different would you say the history here is from what you've experienced?

foremostpatriot May 12 2009, 03:48:47 UTC

For one, I don't recognize any of the last few presidents, according to them. Eisenhower should be in office right now, but it's currently a guy named Wheaton.

fastfoodhero May 12 2009, 03:57:33 UTC

When did Eisenhower come into office? I don't remember a candidate by the name of Wheaton either.

foremostpatriot May 12 2009, 04:07:18 UTC

Eisenhower was 1953 to '61. And that's my point; I don't think there ever was a candidate named Wheaton.

I don't have any money. What can I get her?

foremostpatriot May 12 2009, 03:49:48 UTC

Since when has money been an issue? Wouldn't some sort of drawing work?

rainbowbrush May 12 2009, 03:53:42 UTC

That's a good point! Okay!

spacepeach May 12 2009, 04:02:28 UTC

Um, well... I sort of wanted to...

foremostpatriot May 12 2009, 04:09:22 UTC

She's not even human, MOMO. I came here with two eyes and she never blinked when I lost one. You'd think anyone would react to that.

spacepeach May 12 2009, 04:24:46 UTC

You lost your eye here? A-are you okay?

foremostpatriot May 12 2009, 04:28:20 UTC

I lost my eye fifty years ago. They take everything from you here. They just gave me back my eye so I could blend in or something.

...Divergent? How so?

foremostpatriot May 12 2009, 04:45:09 UTC

We're sometime in the 1950s, that much is pretty quick to find around here. There were two presidents in the '50s - Truman and Eisenhower. Instead, we've got some President Wheaton, and the rest of this history I'm still looking up.

divine_ferrari May 12 2009, 04:59:30 UTC

...Hm. I've never even heard of an American politician by that name, but I must admit that American history is not my forte.

And you're still looking up other possible differences? I may have to make the time to pay a visit to the library myself.

foremostpatriot May 12 2009, 05:30:23 UTC

I hadn't either. I'm pretty sure he wasn't in the running for either election.

This place arbitrarily decided I should be a history teacher. I'm going to see if there's anything in there we can use.

Yeah, I thought it was kind of off. I'm glad to hear it confirmed by someone a little closer to the "current" time.

foremostpatriot May 12 2009, 05:29:00 UTC

Sixty years off isn't close enough for my liking, but I guess it'll have to do.

sycophanticdick May 12 2009, 05:54:33 UTC

Sixty years is a lot closer than six hundred, sir.

foremostpatriot May 12 2009, 05:58:05 UTC

When you're my age, sixty years feels like six hundred.
