[Shiro's back on the plane! And this time, he's sitting down, staring up at the sky, and then down... at the sky again. Like you do.

He looks... thoughtful, as it were. As thoughtful as he can look, anyway.]

Stars, huh? I wonder if they're warm. They sure are bright! And shiny. There's a whole lot of 'em here. I bet they don't need all of 'em.

[He stands up and pats his pants down even if that does nothing, because he's forgotten there isn't any snow out here to stick to him.]

I should go ask someone!

What would you do with stars?

[spotofsunlight]

I tried to eat them, but that didn't work. They're too far away, that's what my 'friends' said. And then I tried to talk to them, but they're not very friendly.

[hisoldgirl]

...you cannot eat stars.

[spotofsunlight]

Ahahaha, yeah, I know that now. But--see, I was thinkin'--I think we need stars back where I'm from, so I wanna see if I can take one with me.

[hisoldgirl]

I do not understand. You have no stars?

[spotofsunlight]

Nope. It's always snowing, y'see. So it's cold and dark, and we need a 'Sun'.

[hisoldgirl]

You have no parent star, either? How does your planet produce heat enough you are able to survive?

[spotofsunlight]

Uhh... 'survive'? I think... it doesn't. Maybe? They said we're all gonna 'die' if we don't have a 'Sun', so I was looking for one, so uhh... can I take one of these?

[hisoldgirl]

No, I do not believe you can.

1/2.

[spotofsunlight]

[Shiro doesn't know the word 'disappointment'.]

2/2.

[spotofsunlight]

Hahaha, well, okay. It was worth a try!

Hey, I don't think I asked you: are you 'friend' or 'foe'?

[hisoldgirl]

[d'aaaaw cutie]

How does one determine that distinction?

<3. Sorry for the late.

[spotofsunlight]

You know what?

...I don't really know how, haha!

All I know is that I'm supposed to protect my 'friends' and kill my 'foes'. That's what my grampa told me--and when I say 'grampa', I mean the man who found me and raised me.

no worries at all :3

[hisoldgirl]

A foe would be one who attempts to impede your goal, I should think. Though why a man would tell that to his charge without context I do not understand.

\o/

[spotofsunlight]

Wow, you sound really smart 'cause you just said a lot of things I don't get. Like, uhh... 'context'. And uhh... whoops, I think I forgot the rest. But there was a lot of them! Are you really smart?

[hisoldgirl]

I have extensive amounts of information stored within my databanks, yes.

[spotofsunlight]

Wow, you're lucky! I want to be smart. It sounds so cool to be smart. Y'know, I think Icoro was smart, but gosh, I don't really remember.

[hisoldgirl]

Intelligence is a positive attribute in most creatures, yes. Do you require lessons?

[spotofsunlight]

Will 'lessons' make me smart?

[hisoldgirl]

...yes.
