I am told I must thank a man named "Xigbar" for helping Booth get these skeletons. I do appreciate it, thus, my thanks.

I am still confused as to where this place is on Earth and I reject the notion that this is possibly not on it. The plant life us very much Earth-like and the way the soil is composed (I am not the best for this sort of conclusion, I usually leave this to Hodgins) seems to be akin to the native soil we have all over the world.

I will reaffirm, I am not a major in Botany or Ecology.

That being said, I am interested in looking at this lake that I'm told is south of the place where Booth and I are staying; I am told it's considered a community housing number 6. How long would it take to travel there, assuming I will need to go by foot? Are there certain things I should be aware of during the travels? Traps, animals, etc. Where would be the best place to get some hiking equipment if it's available, (a compass, boots, machete, things to repel insects, trail mix/rations for about three days, perhaps a tent?)

And where would be the best place to procure a fishing rod? Would I need to make one by hand? Or would I have to find something to trade. As well as a simple boat. Row boat or canoe, I would imagine would be best. I would like to say, this will be more than likely during the warmer days or during days where rain is not a factor.


[voice/action if Booth wants]

I need to thank you again, Booth. I love the skeletons. I feel more at home here.
However, I believe we should go exploring sometime, yes? I am curious of the other places. And yes, I would like to go to the lake with you. It's why I'm asking.

Yes, ma'am.

I'm from a dimension where Earth has colonized over eight hundred planets by 2530. While most of them are located in the “sweet spots” of solar systems, bodies like Luna, Mars, and Europa were terraformed and colonized before FTL travel, by Tobias Shaw and Wallace Fujikawa in in 2291. While many are to extract resources -The Outer Colonies-, some have many more cities and industries -The Inner Colonies-.

This has made the political situation tense for humanity.

[Biggest understatement of the goddamn century.]

Notable tech where I'm from are terraformation means, artificial gravity by momentum, Space Elevators, Artificial Intelligences, and FTL travel; Biofoam, MediGel, and sterilization fields in Medicine; Spaceships, Magnetic Acceleration Cannons and armored exoskeletons in warfare.

If we're talking about species beside humans... they have way more tech dedicated to war.

[While Daisy is talking as if she had been ordered to give a report, the last sentence hints at something of a sore spot.]

That is very interesting, you are from a place where it is normal to cross galaxies, I assume. How long would an average trip take from Earth to Andromeda's closest planet?

Negative, ma'am. We're only in an arm of the Milky Way Galaxy.

Slipstream space is... odd. Short jumps take around two months, while long ones can takee six. But you can't expect time go the same in slipspace as in normal space.

I see.

I assume you're a solider or something of an enlisted part of the militia?

Please do not call me "ma'am", simply just refer to me as "Brennan".

May I call you Daisy, miss?

[It amazes the Chief how quickly things had changed. In her world, only a handful of people got to know her real name.]

Of course, Miss Brennan.

[But her formality could take longer to get rid of.]
