005 ⌥ TEXT; ANONYMOUS [god, i feel like i'm spamming]

If anyone's got a minute to spare, I was wondering if you'd tell me about wherever it is you come from.

The world or worlds, the level of technology, the political hierarchy, your culture and society and how it functions, etc.


[But a few minutes later, a second part is tacked on.]

Forget it. Forget all of that. Don't worry about getting technical.

Just tell me what it was like for you. Your ship or city. Your job. Your friends or family.

If it's not a problem.

Earth. Underground. Test subject. No friends or family.

Three wives. Twelve children. Ship with a sentient AI.


[Scant information is scant, but he's wondering what it is she's looking for.]

[Kara is in a pensive!drunk mood today]

Lived in Delphi on Caprica, one of the Twelve colonies before we got nuked. But the Galactica's pretty much been my home for the past few years. Viper pilot, flight instructor, 2IC to the CAG. Mother deceased, father might as well be. Friends from before? Um...Lee, I guess. Helo. Boomer. Crashdown. The old man, past tense.

Andromeda, my ship, was my home as much as any place. I was born on Tarn Vedran, the capital of the Systems Commonwealth, but after the Fall the slipstream routes were lost. Andromeda and I lost our original crew, but the little crew we've pulled together are like family. They don't quite get military discipline, but they're very good at their jobs.

As for me, there's no longer any High Guard Command for me to report to, so before I was pulled here, I was just trying to help bring back civilization where I could.

[Narvin thinks about how to answer this. He knows all about Earth politics from his era, but he doesn't know much about the *experience* of Earth. On the other hand, other than the Doctor, there's no one here who knows about his time and his universe who could call him out on any mistakes he might make. But he'd like to remain at least moderately accurate, just in case a human from his time and universe does show up. And simultaneously keep it close enough to things from his own life to make the lies easier to maintain.]

I'm a technician, first class. My specialties are temporal mechanics and computer engineering. My job required me to travel quite a lot so I wasn't on Earth much.

Well then, I am from the beautiful state of Texasssssss. Originally at least. Been a bit around everywhere...Oklahoma most recently.

I worked in a traveling circus troop. Had cotton candy for every meal.
