This may be a strange request, but we're all from different worlds so it may not be that strange after all. A friend is helping me with something, and I'm wondering if more minds to it could give her a hand. [Ha. Get it?]

She's working on developing and building me a new arm. Nothing fancy or flashy, but it'd be nice if it could have feeling.

If I can help with anything in return, I'll be happy to return the favor within reason.

I was right! ♥

I know of the United States! That's America's name! [ ??? ] Hingan is like Japanese- well, old Hingan, at least! When I spoke it, my friends from Japan said it sounded like it!

It's written very differently though. Isn't that amazing? We can almost speak the same tongue, but it looks so different!

[bitchilived]

It is pretty amazing. I thought something similar when I went into space for the first time and everyone was speaking a similar language as we were.

[menphina]

You've been to space... what's it like? How far did you go? Did the stars change around you? This is the furthest I've ever been from a sky I don't recognize and I've been picked from home twice!

[bitchilived]

It's vast. We ended up on the edge fringes of our universe. And the stars did change around us.

It sounds like this is quite an adventure for you though.

[menphina]

[ She's absolutely fascinated hearing this. And she's feeling this is a better subject than what he started with. ]

So they spoke the same.. did the people you met look like you too?

[bitchilived]

Not everyone. Some aliens we met were almost identical looking to us, some were... Nowhere close.

[menphina]

Was it normal for people from your earth to go to space, though? I've only heard stories of dragons from beyond the stars...

Do you have friends from your world here, then?

[bitchilived]

Humans from my world didn't go very far in space. IT's part of that long story.

I do. My team that I led is here with me.

[menphina]

I'm almost jealous. I wish my tribe was with me. This place is a lot better than that horrible one I was in last.

Have you been able to get any help from others yet, though? I'm sure there are plenty of folks here who may be far better at this than me and more used to the technology you're used to.

I've just worked with prosthetics thrice before. Think I could look at your arm as it is now though?

[bitchilived]

I'm sorry they aren't here with you then. Maybe they'll turn up.

Two of my teammates are tech geniuses who are used to this sort of thing. I thought I'd ask for someone who could work with the nervous system to help them. And sure. I wouldn't mind.

[menphina]

Haha! If they'd end up here, this place would be chroma drained in a day. They're eager maidens, and very loving!

[ Don't ask, Shiro.They're a headstrong tribe of lovely ladies. ]

My brother's pretty smart, too. He helped make the prosthetic when our cousin lost his arm—

He isn't here, though. I bet he'd love to meet your teammates if he was. So, where can I meet you? I work at the hospital here if you'd rather come by!

[bitchilived]

[That's a whole heck of a lot of information and Megumi is adorably excitable. Okay, then.]

I can stop by there. I'd like to get a couple other things checked out anyway.
