Yeah, I was a dog. I hope they do it again too. I had a lotta fun runnin' around and smellin' everythin'. Shame we can't make requests to the ba- bad guys.
You take cara him. Your from the same world. 'course you're gunna be best friends. Ya don't have ta be someone special. Ya just have ta be a friend to 'im.
Well, if they did, they wouldn't be such big jerks and everyone wouldn't hate 'em so much.
That's really good. Ya should be takin' care a him if you're friends. [chuckles] I haven't done anythin' nice. Just told ya the truth. I'm lookin' forward ta meetin' ya too, Simon. These journals are great, but it's ot as good as actually talkin' ta someone.
I wish they were nicer... then maybe I could see again. Do you think they'll ever give people back what they took away...?
I think it's good to meet people for real too! Sometimes it's weird talking to a book. We never even had books in Jiha. We could only talk face-to-face.
They might. Or they could send ya home for a bit. Ya might come back with your sight then. Or maybe they'll give it back to ya for an experiment or after a kidnappin'. Ya never know what they're gunna do.
I'm used ta talkin' on these... communication things. It's like these but the pictures are bigger and ya usually talk like this rather than writtin' notes. Still, I'd rather meet people.
[Erk, and now Duo's not sure what to say for a minute.] Well, maybe you'll be able ta see there. 'sides, ya never know what kinda doctors ya might be able ta find. They could fix your eyes if they're good or come up with somethin' else. He- One a the healers might even figure out how ta fix 'em with their magic. Whatever happens, I'm sure your papa's gunna do whatever he can ta make ya happy.
Yeah, gotta have a lotta tech to live in space. We have to make our own air to breathe, clean our own water, recycle nearly everythin'. We had to come up with some way ta talk to everyone even if they're on Earth. All kinds a stuff.
He's a good guy. Don't know 'em that well, but he's a good guy.
[chuckles] That's the thing 'bout space. It's nothin'. That's what you're lookin' at. A whole lotta nothin'. But lookin' out at the stars or Earth or the Moon or the colonies, that's a view ya just don't get stayin' on Earth. I hope ya get to see it too. You'll have ta ask your Papa if they go ta space there.
Isn't a lot of nothing good? Then you can fill it and not have to worry about running out of room! That was the biggest problem in Jiha. I bet in space we'd never have to dig!
[chuckles] Well, ya would be the guy ta ask, wouldn't ya?
Well, I already told ya 'bout the minin' on Mars. Ya spend a lotta time buildin' rather than diggin'. Gotta build everythin' there. But the colonies can get crowded if ya don't have enough money ta build another one. We still don't have ta dig.
