[The camera is pointed lazily and a bit off-center at Indrani, pinned to her favorite chair by the much too large and ugly dog who has never believed he doesn't fit in laps.]

So running a thought by everyone. Shouldn't we write ourselves up a guide for newcomers? More efficient than everybody just jumping in with their version of important advice. We could print them up and leave them on the ship, plus a few back here for people who run. Which dinosaurs will kill you, where stuff is, where not to go if you don't feel like being shot at. My friend Moira and I made up a whole book like that at home, and it was just the two of us. Seems like this should be easy.

Hopefully people wouldn't end up arguing or not over what is important to know.

But other than that, yes. I can see that this would be very useful.

[iwanttosettheworldonfire]

We can include that page. A list of arguments we have a lot. Pick a side on your way in!

[girlworthfighting]

You don't think that might prove overwhelming for any newcomer?

[I mean, she assumes you're joking, Indrani. But still.]

[iwanttosettheworldonfire]

[She's never joking. Well, not completely.]

Nah, I'd love it if every new place came with a list of basic disagreements and factions. Usually it takes a whole lot of asking around and getting stabbed before you can tell.

[girlworthfighting]

We can be a little discordant but I don't know if I would go that far.

[iwanttosettheworldonfire]

No, this place is relatively civilized. When stabbing happens there are murder trials and junk. Heck, we could put that in the brochure. If anyone else comes from home they'd wanna know.

[girlworthfighting]

Maybe not just your home, admittedly. There are other lawless realms.

[iwanttosettheworldonfire]

Fair. But then, speaking as a crazed barbarian, I might not believe a piece of paper that promised no one was likely to shoot at me.
