U-um... anybody who worried about me... I'm okay. So you shouldn't worry... especially not Papa...

Oh yeah! Goten, the... uh... New Feather, right? That's what people call them? He made me think-

Since we're all from different worlds, does that mean we're aliens? Though I'm still not really sure what an alien is.

There's no air on Mars? So nobody lives there? That's no fun...

Um... tell me a real story! You said you had one, right?

[colony_brat]

No air in space, but we live there. It's a workin' base so it's not that comfortable, but we make our own air and when ya have ta go out beyond were we made air, ya wear these special suits that keep air in for ya ta breathe.

One? Sure I can come up with more than that. Let's see... somethin' that's not too scary... How 'bout the story of the greatest hero my world'll never know? [He launches into a very generic and less than detailed story about a mighty soldier who fought for the freedom and safety of the people in space. Even when he made a big mistake, he fought on in his metal machine and finally, in front of the entire Earth and colonies, saved the world from two falling ships. He spends time describing the courage of the solider and what the metal machine looks like along with the ships without detailing the fighting to political issues that were part of it. He doesn't talk about the other pilots and decides that the soldier's artic battle with another soldier is another story.]

...Wow...

That kind of sounds like a dream I had one time. It was a really cool story, Duo!

[colony_brat]

[chuckles] Glad ya liked it, but it was real and notta dream.

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

..... It was real?!

[colony_brat]

Ya said ya wanted a real one, didn't ya? Guess I coulda told ya somethin' more borin', but I know that one pretty good.

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

That's true... it's a good story, Duo! It's so cool it sounds make-believe, but I trust you, so...

[colony_brat]

Good 'cause I don't lie. I'm glad ya liked it, but now I'm gunna have a standard ta live up ta next time I tell ya a story.

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

Is that a bad thing? Stories don't have to be that good all the time, as long as you have fun telling them, right?

[colony_brat]

Just means it'll be harder for me ta be as entertainin', but if you're just happy hearin' stories, I could tell ya one from when I was younger. Not as interestin', but ya have ta promise not ta try it. I don't want your papa gettin' mad at me for givin' ya ideas.

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

Huh? Try what? Were you bad as a little kid?

[colony_brat]

[chuckles] They called me a demon among other things. I was a naughty kid, but I had my reasons. They're not the story though. So ya promise?
