[020] o hay is dat sum lika?

Sep 07, 2009 01:05

[audio // English]

It's almost Cassini-Huygens Day!

There should be a party, but I don't think the orbital skydiving part would work here.

i'm from the future!, puter spae: where lika lives

Cassini-Huygens? I think I like Ben and Jerry's better. More stuff in it.

What's a Ben and Jerry's?

It's a big place where people buy lots of ice cream and then drop it like... five feet out the door. Which is fine by me. Not because I do anything with it, that'd be strange, I suppose. I just... like seeing people lose stuff.

Or not. Hey, I'm not gonna have to clean anything now, am I? 'Cause last time we talked I spent the rest of the day scrubbing. Sponges taste terrible.

[She's just going to gloss over that entirely bizarre description...]

The cleaning was your idea.

What's Cassini-Huygens Day?

yousoundblue September 7 2009, 05:19:28 UTC

The day the Huygens probe touched down on Titan!

brynkitten September 7 2009, 05:23:56 UTC

Titan...

[This sounds familiar.]

That's where you're from, right?

yousoundblue September 7 2009, 05:26:04 UTC

Right! Saturn VI!

I be lovin' any holiday dat be givin' a reason to party.

yousoundblue September 7 2009, 05:43:47 UTC

There are other kinds of holidays?

[She is genuinely confused. That's what holidays are for, Kevas.]

pimp_hat September 7 2009, 05:58:33 UTC

[Now that's what he likes to hear.]

Dey ain't be any good ones.

yousoundblue September 7 2009, 06:02:13 UTC

Why would anyone have a holiday and not celebrate? They're holidays.

[Linguistic misunderstanding. Lika's culture has events like Memorial Day, but they're not called "holidays."]

[Sky diving? Parties? You have piqued the rock star's interest.]

Any party that involves sky diving is a good party. Never tried anything out of orbit, though.

yousoundblue September 7 2009, 06:24:07 UTC

I go along if friends are going. I've never done one of the skill jumps, though. I just land wherever the computer puts me.

xofatinox September 7 2009, 06:29:27 UTC

Computer? You let a computer control your fall? Where's the fun in that?

yousoundblue September 7 2009, 06:32:07 UTC

Because computers are better at it than humans are.

[Lika is confused by the thought of not letting computers run your life.]

Lika?

Hello, Baijznyherglert'allalax!

screwyoubob September 7 2009, 06:27:27 UTC

Lika! Hee! Hello! I've been super busy but--but I made you something!

yousoundblue September 7 2009, 06:29:59 UTC

I'm glad you're all right. Everything was so bad for a while. It hurt.

...You made me something?

[Glee! Gifts are awesome.]
