_{[ He glances at her and arches a brow with a little smile. ]}

You counting your Disappointed Dad in that?

[takingkarabusiness]

[ she smiles. it's an affectionate term, after all ]

Better than no dad at all.

[universal_charm]

You realize I am only twenty-seven, right?

[takingkarabusiness]

Still older than me.

And I'm teasing, but I won't if you don't like it.

[universal_charm]

Haha, no, it's all right. I suppose I deserve it for teasing you about breaking the door.

[takingkarabusiness]

Turnabout is fair play, Captain.

[universal_charm]

Indeed it is, Miss Danvers, indeed it is.

[takingkarabusiness]

I'm glad we could come to an agreement.

[universal_charm]

Do we need to hug this one out too?

[takingkarabusiness]

High-five?

[ she puts it up!! ]

[universal_charm]

_{[ He chuckles and slaps his hand against hers. ]}

[takingkarabusiness]

At least those survive the dimensions.

[universal_charm]

Come on, I grew up Earth - it wasn't that different from yours I expect.

[takingkarabusiness]

I'm just saying, you never can be too sure.

[universal_charm]

Heh, true, but don't worry. I think our Earths our similar enough I'll understand most gestures.

[takingkarabusiness]

Good. I'd hate for things to be lost in translation.

What year are you from again?

[universal_charm]

2260.

[takingkarabusiness]

So, 244 years ahead of me. It's interesting to think about.

[universal_charm]

A lot happens - at least in my world. Not all of it good, but we get to a pretty amazing spot by my era.

[takingkarabusiness]

That's always the goal. I have another friend here who's just from a few years in my future, but things are pretty bleak for his world.

[universal_charm]

It was... bad for a little bit. Really bad. But we got through it and our world is better, stronger than ever before. It's sad we had to go through what we did to achieve it, though.

[takingkarabusiness]

I think bad things are going to happen sometimes, but it's how we respond that is important. I'm glad your world was able to become stronger as a result.

[universal_charm]

I think it's helped that First Contact was made too, that we learned we really weren't alone in the universe, and now we're exposed to many more cultures and species. It makes the problems we had seem so petty and small by comparison.

[takingkarabusiness]

Oh? What was that like for you?

[universal_charm]

I wasn't there for First Contact. That was in 2063, so just under two hundred years ago for me.
