Others have been mentioning dates of birth and so I was wondering: what do your people do in order to celebrate the day someone is born, or named, or comes into their own?

Also, how do your people celebrate the lives that have ended?

Yes. It's unfortunate, though, because I do really enjoy having discussions with Kristeeva and figuring out her line of thought.

... Other than the fact that her processors hold much more information than a human brain could probably ever manage but that's a simple logistics problem.

[ouzel]

Droids can be centuries old where I'm from as well, so that would be a bit of perspective.

Kristeeva is not that old - however as the entourage of the Director-General of the Citizen Security Bureau, she was connected to all of the main frames and information at hand in the city.

The funny part is that I thought I had dug deeply in to the workings of the city, but I'd only scratched the surface from what I've been told.

[ouzel]

That sort of thing sounds like it would be difficult to crack; at the very least it would take time to sort through all the data.

[realimperfect]

It will certainly take a lot of time to sift through.. but I'm interested in learning everything I hadn't known before. She is more willing to give information away now, obviously, without Raul breathing down her neck. So i figure why not take advantage of that while I can.

[ouzel]

What are you hoping to find?

[realimperfect]

More information about.. almost everything, really. I'm coming to realize that I actually knew very little about the place that I called home for all nineteen years of my life and now that I can learn about it, I might as well.

I'm always hungry for the truth, even if it's not the happy or wanted truth.

[ Cassian hadn't realized Re-L was so young, but then again it's not like they'd been swapping life stories on Oros while he field treated her arm. ]

And when you have the truth. What will you do with it?

[realimperfect]

There's not much to do with it, really. Other than to make sure whatever is rebuilt on Earth is not the same.

[ouzel]

The best way to do that might be to disseminate the information. What is widely known can become even more powerful.

[realimperfect]

Let's see what these people dropping back to Earth are even like before coming up with any grand schemes.... After all, they could be worse.

I doubt it, but there is always a chance.

[ouzel]

I'm not even from Earth so I can only give the perspective of someone who has dealt with secrets.

[realimperfect]

Secrets can be the best and worst things, depending on the situation.

Still, it's good to know there are people aboard who have dealt in the same situations.

[ouzel]

Glad to help where I can.

[realimperfect]

Keep me in mind if anything else questionable comes along. I'd like to be in the loop.

[ouzel]

Will do.
