What is your "homeworld"? Would you describe it as preindustrial or industrialized? What language did you speak?
I'm from California in the US of A, of course it was industrialized. I speak several languages, primarily English and Spanish, it's not limited to that.

What was your profession there? Socioeconomic status?
Freelancing people pushing, I was in the exterminator business you could say. I worked at least six months out of the year. I owned property and several vehicles. I was very comfortable.

The City

How long have you been in the City? Is anyone from your homeworld here?
It'll be three years in August. A lazy ass alcoholic is present in the City from my neck of the universe. Hardly worth mentioning, but you did ask.

Where do you live? Where do you work? Or do you not work at all?I ( ... )

Thank you for your thorough response.

I didn't realize rodent exterminators got paid so well.

What is your "homeworld"? Would you describe it as preindustrial or industrialized? What language did you speak? I lived in Italy, and we spoke Italian... Triela knows more languages though. What's 'industrialized' mean?
What was your profession there? Socioeconomic status? I don't know if I can say... I lived in a dormitory. I don't understand the second question.

The City
How long have you been in the City? I don't remember.
Is anyone from your homeworld here? No. Unless you're a friend of Dr. Bianchi's?
Where do you live? Sometimes I forget... but I do have a place to live.
Where do you work? Or do you not work at all? I go to school when I remember to.

Aww, she's trying <3 And, uh, Bones doesn't mean to sound as nasty as she does XD;; phdinbones April 25 2009, 18:29:48 UTC
Did you suffer from some sort of head injury?

"Industrialized" means your civilization is involved in technology and mass production. Socioeconomic status is your relative standing in society based on a number of different factors such as birth, family history, and wealth.

Ange can't tell. :3 prototipo April 25 2009, 18:38:00 UTC
I don't think I did... My memory isn't very good, that's all.

I guess it was industrialized, we had trains, computers and things like that... And I lived at the Agency, they took care of anything I needed.

Aww phdinbones April 25 2009, 18:43:09 UTC
There must be some kind of physiological explanation. Memory loss to that extent is worrisome. You should see a doctor.

Yes, that sounds like an industrial culture. And you have someone to take care of you here, in the City?

Dr. Brennan! Good to see you hard at work... did I mention that I recently had a meeting with a 'deity'? It was most exciting...

Did you? Which deity?

Sabine. She was really quite charming...

I'm interested in finding out the names and numbers of how many other deities we're looking at... perhaps at the next group meeting we will all compare information and compare notes.
