Netpost; Starbuck
So this is Earth? It really exists.

Your gravity is strange, different to Caprica and Galactica.

Shame you didn’t decide to bring the whole fleet and just grabbed me, I’m not sure how useful a Viper Pilot without his Viper will be. But here I am, name’s Starbuck.

	It’s pretty wild how it keeps us on the ground. Are you surprised about Earth because it’s something you only heard about in bedtime stories or because in your world it got blown up by some giant intergalactic weapon? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	prettyflyboy 2024-07-28 04:37 pm UTC (link)
	It was definitely a bedtime story. Or scripture if you’re that way inclined. No, it was our twelve planets that were wiped out by intergalactic weapons. Rendered uninhabitable, not completely destroyed, if you want to be technically correct. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	There is nothing about Earth that warrants that. So you lived on your ship? How long ago did that happen? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	prettyflyboy 2024-08-05 08:07 pm UTC (link)
	I did. A small fleet of survivor fled from the planets after the destruction. But the Cylons chased us from our own system, they're still trying to destroy us. It happened about a yahren ago. A year in your terms. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hello! Where are you from? I'm Cassie. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	prettyflyboy 2024-07-28 04:48 pm UTC (link)
	Hello, Cassie. I'm from the Cyrannus galaxy, born on Caprica, the capital planet. But I live on Galactica, a Battlestar. I know a Cassie at home, Cassiopeia. She’s friendly too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	morphingpeanut 2024-07-28 07:02 pm UTC (link)
	I love learning about people's origins. Pretty name. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	prettyflyboy 2024-07-28 07:29 pm UTC (link)
	Bet you’ve heard a few different origin stories here. I said so too. Is your Cassie short for anything? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	morphingpeanut 2024-07-28 07:34 pm UTC (link)
	I have. Cassandra. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	prettyflyboy 2024-07-28 07:42 pm UTC (link)
	I can bore you with more details if you’d like them. Cassandra is a pretty name too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	morphingpeanut 2024-07-28 07:45 pm UTC (link)
	I'd love that. I'm really into physics and learning about new worlds. Thank you! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	prettyflyboy 2024-08-02 09:49 pm UTC (link)
	Physics huh, you'd be better off talking to Thenie or Apollo about that. But I can tell you all about our twelve planets. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	morphingpeanut 2024-08-02 09:50 pm UTC (link)
	I look forward to it! (Reply to this) (Parent)

	outofthedome 2024-07-28 02:46 pm UTC (link)
	Are you able to adjust to the gravity okay? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	prettyflyboy 2024-07-28 04:45 pm UTC (link)
	I think so. I was not expecting to be able to lift something as heavy as I just did so easily, but maybe being a Galactican also has something to do with it? We must be tougher stock than Terrans. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	outofthedome 2024-07-28 07:03 pm UTC (link)
	Heh, maybe. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	prettyflyboy 2024-07-28 07:31 pm UTC (link)
	Don’t worry, I don’t plan on testing my new limits too much. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	outofthedome 2024-07-28 07:35 pm UTC (link)
	Probably for the best for all of us, including you. Don't want to get hurt. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	prettyflyboy 2024-08-02 10:10 pm UTC (link)
	Avoiding injury is my top priority. Being a Colonial Warrior doesn't always aid me in my endeavor. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	You ain't from Earth neither? Welcome! You get used to it. In my time, Earth's been all used up but here it is! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	prettyflyboy 2024-07-28 04:42 pm UTC (link)
	I’m from Caprica, the capital planet of the twelve colonies of humans. It’s in the Cyrannus galaxy. But I haven’t lived there for yahrens, Galactica is my home, she’s a Battlestar. Where’s home for you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kaywinnet 2024-07-28 04:50 pm UTC (link)
	If I say "space" does that sound weird? Home is on Serenity. I keep her flying but she ain't here. But she's home and her crew is my family. I was born and raised on Kowlonshi though. It probably exists way out there but the humans here haven't gotten that far out yet. I don't think. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	prettyflyboy 2024-07-28 07:38 pm UTC (link)
	Not at all. I’m the same. My squadron is my family and we all live together on Galactica. I’m not sure how far out they’ve traveled. Doesn’t seem far at all. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kaywinnet 2024-07-31 02:45 am UTC (link)
	I'm glad you get it. There's a few of us "from space" and we gotta stick together. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	prettyflyboy 2024-08-02 10:07 pm UTC (link)
	I'm all for getting to know people better. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	We're mostly a friendly bunch. A couple grumps. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	prettyflyboy 2024-08-05 08:08 pm UTC (link)
	I'll try to avoid the grumps. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	cpt_marvel 2024-07-28 08:47 pm UTC (link)
	You had me at pilot. I haven't heard of those planets, but apparently, you've never been to Earth so that's not too surprising. I'm Carol, by the way. I'm going to go out on a limb and guess the name 'Captain Marvel' doesn't mean anything to you. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	prettyflyboy 2024-07-28 09:39 pm UTC (link)
	I did, hmm? You must be one too. Galactica is a spaceship, a Battlestar, the only one left. Caprica is no longer habitable but so far as I know it still exists. Pleasure to meet you Carol. There might have been a Marvel on the Pacifica, but he wasn’t a Captain. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cpt_marvel 2024-07-28 09:42 pm UTC (link)
	Good guess. Got it. I'm sorry to hear about Caprica. Was that your home planet? I took it from a Mar-vel, but she was a woman. It's interesting that someone shares the name, though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	prettyflyboy 2024-08-05 08:17 pm UTC (link)
	What do you usually fly? It was, not that I had lived there for yahrens. Mar-vel, that's definitely different to ours. Someone in a completely different universe makes it even more interesting I suppose. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	starshipdreams 2024-07-30 01:55 am UTC (link)
	It really is. Or so they say, anyway. What's Caprica's gravity like? What's a viper? A ship? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	prettyflyboy 2024-08-01 04:40 pm UTC (link)
	Guess we need to take their word for it. About five times stronger than this. I feel like I might float away. That's right, Vipers are fighter craft. Very fast, very manoeuvrable and with a decent range for patrols too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	starshipdreams 2024-08-02 07:50 am UTC (link)
	It's close enough to the earth from my world. Heh. that's got to be a weird feeling. But zero G can be fun. If annoying for hanging on to things. Nice. I was on a much bigger ship. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	prettyflyboy 2024-08-02 10:05 pm UTC (link)
	Incredibly so. Last time I was in zero gravity I was outside the Galactica's hull. She's the bigger ship I launch my Viper from. Was yours a military craft or civilian? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	starshipdreams 2024-08-03 05:16 am UTC (link)
	Halfway in between. A scientific vessel with ranks and weapons. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's sad that scientists need to defend themselves. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	starshipdreams 2024-08-05 08:17 pm UTC (link)
	It is, but you never know what you're going to encounter in deep space. Or during diplomatic relationships. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	prettyflyboy 2024-08-05 08:19 pm UTC (link)
	Ahh, diplomacy, I managed to avoid that detail whenever I could. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	starshipdreams 2024-08-05 08:23 pm UTC (link)
	It's not that bad, really. There are worse things. Like paperwork. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	prettyflyboy 2024-08-16 07:49 pm UTC (link)
	I'd say paperwork and dimplomacy are equally bad. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
