[At night, Werter is sitting at a remote part of the deck, looking at the sky. He brought a pair of binoculars with him for stargazing, though that's currently being used by Prometheus. They're not here to watch just the stars, though.]

Isn't it funny? We just barely avoided one worldwide catastrophe, and here comes another one already. Talk about

[here be a half-boiled detective trying to look cool.]

I wonder if this is becoming a trend? 'Save the world? Here, have more problems to deal with.'

Sounds like something out of an old shounen manga.

I wish this was an old shonen manga. Someone would shatter the meteor with one punch already.

Indeed. But it would take for the event to be depicted, and they'd have to undergo a journey to their inner soul that would take days while only seconds pass in reality.

But since we don't have such people, only people who think world works like that, we have to rely on the Federation instead. And hope they don't drop the ball.

backtagging!

Yare, Yare, To rely on the people who have been giving us hell as of late? That's not gonna bite us in the ass, I'm sure.

[saikyocivrobo]

Look on the bright side: at least they don't want the meteor to fall on Earth as much as us.

[leftjoker]

I suppose there always is that, isn't there?

That doesn't mean I trust them blindly - the Federation has a reputation for screwing up, one could say. But nobody else even has a backup plan.
