[Day 329] In Bloom Event/Dance Mingle
[DAYTIME: Walking in a floral wonderland. Not to be confused with an actual wonderland. ~~Completely different event.~~ You could be anywhere and everywhere today and not escape the petals.

DANCE: The sector 2 garden is a little extra pleasant and inviting this evening. Gentle breeze, beautiful flowers, delicious hor d'oeuvres, sparkling punch, and music. And dry. Did we mention it's dry? Not a single flood as far as the eye can see. So, find someone and get out there and dance.]

(OOC: Event INFO. Feel free to have your mingle set up cover both aspects of the day.)

	[Hello. You have a look of importance about you. Also, possibly a person of power. He is very fond of those things.] Enjoying the party? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ importance and power, varrick. several times over, if you want to get technical. and thanks to the power of fanboying, she may have influence she isn't yet aware of over some of the inmates here. ] I am, actually. [ for as much as one could when they were still imprisoned, party or no party. ] And yourself? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	do_the_thing 2015-06-27 01:30 am UTC (link)
	Very much so! I love a good gathering. And what better way to meet new people? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	forceful 2015-06-30 01:18 pm UTC (link)
	Much better than huddling together for shelter from the rain. [ said dryly. leia had barely been her a few days and she was already done with this prison's antics. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	do_the_thing 2015-07-01 04:54 pm UTC (link)
	I agree! This is a much better setting. Are you also a new arrival? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	forceful 2015-07-02 07:32 pm UTC (link)
	If having only been here for a few days is still considered new, then yes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Newer than myself! They threw you right into the thick of it, didn't they? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Actually, I find this place considerably calm in comparison to state of my galaxy. [ only someone who had spent the better part of the past four years fighting the empire would see a flood as calm. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	do_the_thing 2015-07-08 06:55 pm UTC (link)
	Is that so? [He leans forward a bit, clearly interested. He'd come from a tumultuous backdrop as well. But...] A galaxy, you say? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Yes.

[ a small, polite smile appears on her face. she's still getting used societies of sophisticated people being largely unaware of the space that exists beyond their own planets' atmospheres. it's a little difficult to wrap her head around it, as interstellar travel has been a common aspect of people's lives for centuries where she's from -- thousands of years, in some cases. ]

I take it they don't go off world where you're from?

	The very idea is preposterous. A fantasy for novelists and dreamers. I would love to know how it's possible. [He sighs. He has a vague idea after talking to Mal and seeing his sketchy drawing of Serenity.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	forceful 2015-07-20 07:19 pm UTC (link)
	With ships, of course. My people have been traveling between the worlds of the rims for centuries. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	do_the_thing 2015-07-20 07:50 pm UTC (link)
	We have ships. Even ships that fly. What we can't do is get the ships off the planet. They simply won't make it. Well, and the small matter that everyone on them will die after a certain point. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	What's the technology like on your world? [ that would help give her a better idea of how far off they were, generally speaking, from achieving hyperspace flight. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Well. I thought we were advancing quite rapidly. [But coming here has shown him advancements not yet dreamed of.] If we stay on the topic of transport, we have trains. The Fire Nation has a rail system. They use steam. But I've developed a more efficient magnetic system in the Earth Kingdom. Automobiles, of course. They started off as steam, but they run on gasoline now. Aircraft - planes, various airships. Vessels for the sea, fishing, war, luxury, anything you can imagine really.

	Automobiles. With wheels? [ not that they didn't use wheels on planets where the terrain was more suited to being rolled over than hovered, but it was still somewhat of an archaic preference. ] And what about computers? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	do_the_thing 2015-07-28 08:23 pm UTC (link)
	[He frowns, confused.] Of course, with wheels. How else would they travel? Ah, and no. No computers. Switchboards. Telephone. Radio. No computers. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	They'd hover. [ said with something of a chuckle. ] Sounds to me like you're quite a ways off from reaching our level of technology. That's not a bad thing. Progress can a wonderful thing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	do_the_thing 2015-07-31 04:31 am UTC (link)
	It would seem so. But you are correct. Progress is wonderful. And I fully intend to take advantage of my exposure the technology here while I can. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	forceful 2015-08-01 03:42 pm UTC (link)
	You'd be a fool not to. [ and she realizes that she's been having this conversation without knowing, exactly, who this fellow is. ] I'm sorry, I didn't catch your name. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	do_the_thing 2015-08-02 10:53 pm UTC (link)
	[Oh no!] How awful of me. I apologize! My name is Varrick. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	forceful 2015-08-12 12:24 am UTC (link)
	Varrick, [ she echoes. ] I'm Leia. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	do_the_thing 2015-08-17 01:40 am UTC (link)
	Leia. A pleasure. (Reply to this) (Parent)
