*There's a slight pause before Toboe speaks up. He's a bit nervous about asking, cause it might be a sensitive subject and he's not sure he wants to talk about his world...but curiosity wins out in the end.*

What were your worlds like?

Comments

[frostedbites]

I was a god.

[Because he has to vent to anyone who listens.]

[stray_cub]

...A god?

*He's willing to believe that, but confused about what it means. Toboe has heard of gods, but not much more than that. Nor has he put any stock in them*

[frostedbites]

All-powerful, all-knowing. You know. A god.

[stray_cub]

Then how did you end up here?

[myplacenthesun]

Depends. I got a little bit shoved into a whole new world of voodoo and talking animals right before I came here.

But before all that, I was just a waitress. Saving up to own my own restaurant.

[stray_cub]

*Talking animals?*

Oh, ah. That's...weird.

*A short, nervous laugh goes here*

What sort of restaurant did you want?
And what's voodoo?

[myplacenthesun]

Tell me about it. I about had a heart attack the first time my best friend's dog spoke to me. I was just about getting used to it, though.

A beautiful one. Elegant, classy. Serving up beignets, jumbalaya, gumbo, best kind of food around.

And, oh, voodoo's a...kind of magic.

[stray_cub]

*Oh, yes, talking dogs. Those are...uh...moving on*

I don't know what any of those are. Are they any good?

*Toboe's dining experiance is rather limited*

[jazzingitup]

What'd ya want ta know about it?

[stray_cub]

Anything. I'm just curious what people's worlds are like and how they're different from here.

[jazzingitup]

The biggest difference between my world and I guess I could say 'Earth' would be the environment I think. Earth's got a lot of water and dirt and plants. My world's kinda lacking in those things.

[stray_cub]

What does yours have instead?

[lightyourway]

My world's just a couple of islands, but it's beautiful. It's a lot like the forest up on deck three, but with beaches. And the ocean; I miss swimming in it.

[Deja vu. Have they had this conversation before?]

What's yours like?

[stray_cub]

That sounds pretty...

*They might have. Toboe isn't sure*

Mine was...mine was ending. But before that it was mostly cold wastelands or big domed cities. Or scary caves.

[lightyourway]

Oh.

I guess it must be nice to see trees and the ocean and flowers then. And at least the caves aren't so scary here.

If... It hasn't ended, would you still go back there?

[stray_cub]

If its still there...I'd like to see Paradise. And my friends.

[quirkiestgirl]

Depends on which world we're talking about. I feel like I've been to dozens.

[stray_cub]

You've been to other worlds before?
