There's lots more elves around, but I think I'm still the only fairy. I wonder if that means fairies are really rare or something? They weren't where I'm from, but maybe they're rare in other planets? I don't know, it's confusing. It'd be nice to have someone to fly with!

	What's a fairy? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	heyheylisten 2011-06-11 12:22 am UTC (link)
	Me, duh. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sayapple 2011-06-11 12:37 am UTC (link)
	That doesn't help me much, to be honest. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh. Hi! I'm Navi, and I'm a blue fairy. Normally we're teeeny tiny, about the size of thumbs, but here I'm big for some reason. We have wings, and we're usually pretty smart, and we help things grow. I can talk to plants, but that's just blue fairies I think, I don't know about other kinds. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sayapple 2011-06-11 01:06 am UTC (link)
	Little blue things with wings. All right! Got it now! I was a little silver and blue thing with, um. A flashlight? And a rail. The name's Wheatley, by the way. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	heyheylisten 2011-06-11 01:15 am UTC (link)
	Well, where I'm from they're little blue things with wings but here I'm big, and only blue when I fly, and my wings aren't out all the time. You were a machine? And Wheatley's a good name! I don't know why, but it sounds nice! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sayapple 2011-06-11 01:19 am UTC (link)
	I'm pretty fond of it! Serves my purposes. Makes me perk up and notice when it's called. Gives people something to call me besides "hey you" and "little metal ball." Well. Not so much with the "little metal ball" anymore, actually. But yeah, I was a machine. Of sorts. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	heyheylisten 2011-06-11 01:26 am UTC (link)
	... what sorts? And you know what's icky? I always had my name but nobody but my dad knew it back home, since they couldn't really hear me talk. I could yell really loud, but it was still hard to hear me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sayapple 2011-06-11 01:54 am UTC (link)
	Ooh, that must've been a pain. At least that problem's solved! I took care of a lot of sleeping humans for a long time. It, ah. Didn't end well, actually. They all sort of... died. A bit. On my watch. It wasn't my fault, though! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	heyheylisten 2011-06-11 01:57 am UTC (link)
	It's so nice to not have to yell all the time! ... whose fault was it? You're not allowed to take care of humans now, buddy. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sayapple 2011-06-11 02:04 am UTC (link)
	Hey! The thing that woke them up periodically and gave them a bit of exercise stopped working between the times I went to check on them. Also the thing that pumped nutrients into their bodies. Ah. Well. Everything. Um. Stopped working, actually. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	heyheylisten 2011-06-11 02:07 am UTC (link)
	Yeah. No taking care of humans for you. How about you work on taking care of you first? How have you been eating? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sayapple 2011-06-11 02:24 am UTC (link)
	Interestingly! I'm sort of still working out what is and isn't food. And what tastes good and what doesn't. And what will probably kill me. Toothpaste was an interesting experience, let me tell you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	heyheylisten 2011-06-11 02:28 am UTC (link)
	DON'T EAT THE TOOTHPASTE IT GIVES YOU MINTY TUMMYACHES (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sayapple 2011-06-11 02:40 am UTC (link)
	Yeah, I, ah, sort of figured that out after a quarter-tube. Why would they make it taste so good if they don't mean for it to be eaten? Honestly! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	heyheylisten 2011-06-11 02:53 am UTC (link)
	Silly! They make it taste good 'cause it goes in your mouth, just in itty bitty amounts. It keeps your teeth clean! Oh, you should have ice cream! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sayapple 2011-06-11 04:58 am UTC (link)
	I've had that! I seem to have done it wrong, though. It made my head hurt like mad! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	heyheylisten 2011-06-11 05:03 am UTC (link)
	That's because you ate it too fast. I did that my first time too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sayapple 2011-06-11 05:24 am UTC (link)
	God, it just! Pain! Everywhere! Still not used to that, I mean they had given me some kind of chip that would give a negative kind of feedback or something, I don't know what, but real, proper pain! Wow! Horrible! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	heyheylisten 2011-06-12 12:08 am UTC (link)
	Aww! Wait until you get sick, it's the worst. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sayapple 2011-06-13 02:35 am UTC (link)
	Sick? Oh no, humans get viruses too? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	heyheylisten 2011-06-13 02:41 am UTC (link)
	Yeah. I got mono once - it's a kind of virus - and I was in bed for a month. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sayapple 2011-06-13 03:56 am UTC (link)
	...I think I need to go disinfect everything right now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	heyheylisten 2011-06-13 03:59 am UTC (link)
	No no no! Humans are the opposite of machines! They need a few viruses to learn how to kill them! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sayapple 2011-06-13 04:17 am UTC (link)
	But... viruses are terrible things! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	heyheylisten 2011-06-13 04:21 am UTC (link)
	I know, but if you make it too clean, your body has no defenses. It's like a war, and you're erasing all your troops and leaving yourself prone to invasion. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sayapple 2011-06-13 04:25 am UTC (link)
	So wait. Using viruses... to fight viruses? That's flipping brilliant, mate. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	heyheylisten 2011-06-13 04:43 am UTC (link)
	It's more like giving the white blood cells - the front line soldiers - something to practice on. That way you don't have untrained troops wondering what to do and tripping on each other. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sayapple 2011-06-13 05:06 am UTC (link)
	So. Sort of like building not-crap turrets from a not-crap base, instead of building crap turrets from a crap base. I have experience with that. Sort of. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	heyheylisten 2011-06-13 05:17 am UTC (link)
	Is it relating to the death thing? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sayapple 2011-06-13 05:22 am UTC (link)
	What, the death of all the humans? No, no, that was long before the turret thing ever happened, don't you worry. This was directed at one specific human. Who, in retrospect, really didn't deserve it. I probably owe her an apology. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	heyheylisten 2011-06-13 06:01 am UTC (link)
	Well, you have time to practice one just in case she shows up! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sayapple 2011-06-13 06:02 am UTC (link)
	I don't think I'll have it right no matter how much I practice it. Anyway, that kind of thing has to come from the heart, right? Better just to wing it and hope for the best. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	heyheylisten 2011-06-13 06:18 am UTC (link)
	It sounds like that's worked out really well for you before! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sayapple 2011-06-13 03:42 pm UTC (link)
	Well... I've never really had to do this sort of thing before. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	heyheylisten 2011-06-13 03:52 pm UTC (link)
	Just make sure you mean whatever you say if you apologize. The most important part is that it be genuine. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sayapple 2011-06-13 05:21 pm UTC (link)
	It will be. Just... not terribly poetic, probably. (Reply to this) (Parent)
