[Wes has managed to work out where he works now. What the hell, This Timeline Wes?]

So. Is anyone else seriously questioning their new timeline counterpart's judgement?

[He shakes his head]

I could not possibly have had that much to drink.

Re: Bond. James Bond.

Twould indeed be troubling to find things so different. I confess that I do seem to like Poseidon far better than the Old City, but perhaps tis because I spent my formative years in a coastal area. Do you sail?

Re: Bond. James Bond.

[kettchmeifyoucan]

No, I'm a starfighter pilot, actually.

Re: Bond. James Bond.

[djinnigenie]

[That causes the young woman's eyes to light up.]

As in... the sort of star vessel that brought us here? You know how to sail such a thing?

[The Warden is obviously quite impressed, flyboy.]

Re: Bond. James Bond.

[kettchmeifyoucan]

WEll, not exactly like it. That tech's unfamiliar to everyone. But a smaller, zippier craft.

[Zippiness being a highly important quality]

Re: Bond. James Bond.

[djinnigenie]

So... you not only fly above the ground, but you can fly and navigate the stars? You are quite the interesting fellow, Wes Janson.

[kettchmeifyoucan]

Rogue Squadron has been called many things, but dull has never been one of them.

Re: Bond. James Bond.

[djinnigenie]

[That pulls a laugh from the young woman.]

And what is it that you do here? In Verdana?

Re: Bond. James Bond.

[kettchmeifyoucan]

Apparently I fly patrols for the Authorities. News to me.

Re: Bond. James Bond.

[djinnigenie]

Fly? As in... a kind of vessel? I am assuming you do not mean flying as Thor does with his hammer. Do you patrol the forests or act as some sort of flying guardsman for the town?

Re: Bond. James Bond.

[kettchmeifyoucan]

They have some sort of hovercraft.

[That he might have been trying to figure out how to steal in the last timeline...]

Patrolling along the new quarantine zone.

Re: Bond. James Bond.

[djinnigenie]

Hovercraft. [Again, her laugh escaped.]

You may as well say something nonsensical for all the good that does me. Is it able to transport goods? Or is it small like a... a skiff? Or a rowboat?

Re: Bond. James Bond.

[kettchmeifyoucan]

A bit like a skiff. They don't go terribly far off the ground, but it's better than nothing.

[Not that he'd been getting ground crazy or anything.]

Re: Bond. James Bond.

[djinnigenie]

I had a skiff of my own back in Highever. She was named the Grumpy Wyvern - after an old friend of my father.

Your machine sounds as if it might be rather more complicated than sailing, however.

Do you ever get to travel near the western forest? Or tis only in the quarantine zone?

Re: Bond. James Bond.

[kettchmeifyoucan]

I'm not sure the exact details just yet, just that I'm supposed to fly patrols. Beats selling land vehicles at any rate.

Re: Bond. James Bond.

[djinnigenie]

Pfft. Selling anything would not be my first choice for coin. I have great respect for those who do.

If you ever find your way up to the forest between the two cities, watch for a home in the woods?

Re: Bond. James Bond.

[kettchmeifyoucan]

I'm really not terribly suited for civilian life. Don't have the skillset for it. Or the temperament, really.

[Some would question how his temperament suits his current field]

Re: Bond. James Bond.

[djinnigenie]

Neither do I, truly. Not anymore. I have been fighting a ground war in my homeland for almost 3 years. For the last battle, I was made general of the armies. That was a bit startling, I assure you.
