On Aurora, the world of my creators, robots are ubiquitous. Most households own anywhere from five to a dozen robots. Most do not resemble myself, of course. Other worlds choose not to have robots at all.

[That gets a look of mild curiosity from Davesprite.]

Oh, so the space travel deal is standard for you. [A beat, before he adds:] Assuming those are planets and not dimensions, anyway.

[thezerothlaw]

They are planets, yes. I had been to a number of planets, before my time in the Fleet. Still, it is... rather different. This sort of travel is... rather aimless and slow, for one.

[feathery]

Christ, yeah. Isn't the future supposed to be filled with faster-than-light travel and hyperdrives and shit.

[thezerothlaw]

Hyperspace jumps are the usual mode of travel where I am from. A long trip may take several jumps, with perhaps a few days in between, but the jump itself is instantaneous. It is... not like the Fleet at all.

[feathery]

Ugh.

[He rubs at his face with his hands.]

No kidding. I mean with the Fleet, does anyone actually know where we're going. Have we even got a destination in mind or is it all spur of the moment, fickle whims from the Marsiva.
