Yeah, but that's like trying to say the police don't have any power over the public. They do, even if they're ruled by the state who's ruled by the country. They definitely have authority.

[proteusmoon]

Who?

[ She's never heard of police. ]

[sensationate]

The police? The state? The country?

[ At this rate, he's willing to believe she's not heard of any of them. He's generous like that. ]

[proteusmoon]

[ It's a good thing he's new and she's making a conscious effort to get along with all of her crew now in spite of their differences, because otherwise, he probably would have gotten at least a smack upside the head. ]

The police. I used the word "country" myself just moments ago.

[sensationate]

Lots of people use words they don't know.

Police, though. They're like... officiators sponsored by the local governments to be a source of authority and peacemaking as recognized by the public. They deal with crimes issues of safety and the like.

[proteusmoon]

As I said, those are the mandated groups of individuals. We call them peacekeepers. Does your world have military forces?

[sensationate]

Yes, it does. Multiple different types of forces.

[proteusmoon]

The orders of knights are a branch of the nation's military. I served as captain of our air fleet myself.

[sensationate]

Oh, so you're the equivalent of the Air Force. Okay. You seem rather chill for military, if I do say so myself.

[proteusmoon]

Er, I seem... cold?

[ She's never heard someone use that phrase before. Okay, maybe the "generosity" wasn't completely unwarranted. ]

[sensationate]

[ Yeah, he's on the right wavelength in assuming total unfamiliarity with regular modern human things for sure. Jordan laughs at the comment. ]

Chill. Relaxed or otherwise nonchalant.

[proteusmoon]

[ This is going to get so confusing when the whole Lunarian thing comes into play-- but for now! ]

Oh. I see. My mistake. I haven't heard anyone describe it that way.

[ It makes sense though and she seems really appreciative of this new turn of words she's just learned. ]
