    Oh? I kind of like the nickname. I hope it sticks. [She's been called so much worse than Jabbering Queen. Plus, it really does suit her. She likes talking.] And that's sweet. If it's real.

    I haven't seen it yet but I've noticed that fake things smell a little funny. Like going to EarthTreks or something.

    [There is no reason to get your panties in a twist Edna. Freya believes you.]

    That sounds cool too. I'll have to check it out if it's really that awesome.

    [Default Edna mode? Annoyed at everyone and everything.]

    I don't know what EarthTreks is. Sounds dumb.

    It is pretty dumb.

    [A bright happy voice laughs through the phone.]

    People go inside to climb rocks and pretend that they're outside. They also spend a lot of money doing this. I don't really get it to be honest.

    [Edna's brows knit in puzzlement but because the devices have no resonance, she still cannot be seen.]

    Why not just go out to a mountain and climb it? There are plenty on your world, aren't there? There are certainly enough on the planets we get stuck on while we're on these ships.

    That is a question for the people who go to EarthTreks. I prefer mountains myself; air, sun, freedom, heights. Okay, I am not a huge fan of heights but I've seen some pretty awesome views.

    [Freya really wishes that she could explain people to Edna but humans are hard to explain. They make no sense.]

    There are a lot of awesome places on my planet.

    [It feels weird calling it that.]
    brothersboots: (z200)

    Humans continue to make no sense.

    [Even the ones here.]

    I'm sure that everyone could say that about the worlds they come from. What's so special about yours?
    luckyescape: (Looking down)

    [personal profile] luckyescape 2018-07-08 11:00 pm (UTC)(link)
    It's not the sort of thing I can really explain but it's mine. That makes it special to me.

    [Freya doesn't feel the need to explain how she feels.]
    brothersboots: (4SYDxvU)

    [personal profile] brothersboots 2018-07-08 11:07 pm (UTC)(link)
    That's really broad. No one's going to be able to to do anything with that.

    [Boring. She's getting bored now.]
    luckyescape: (Yes?)

    [personal profile] luckyescape 2018-07-09 12:11 am (UTC)(link)
    [Freya laughs in a bright happy tone.]

    That's fine. I don't really do things because of other people. Kinda seems silly since I'm the one living my life and all.
    brothersboots: (4SYDxvU)

    [personal profile] brothersboots 2018-07-09 12:46 am (UTC)(link)
    [Of course the Jabbering Queen would find everything amusing. She doesn't even make newbie bingo interesting.]

    Fine. I'm sure you actually have questions, right? Ask them.
    luckyescape: (Lovely Picture)

    [personal profile] luckyescape 2018-07-09 12:57 am (UTC)(link)
    Oh constantly! I live to ask questions.

    [Freya isn't kidding about that either.]

    How'd you make a mountain?

    [Totally the most important question.]
    brothersboots: (Z162)

    [personal profile] brothersboots 2018-07-11 09:49 am (UTC)(link)
    Yeah, I figured.

    [Can't you just tell how thrilled she is to have volunteered herself to answer them?

    Although... the first question isn't what she expected. Katie will be disappointed when she shares it later.]


    With seraphic artes and my two dumb brothers.
    luckyescape: (I'm not paying attention.)

    [personal profile] luckyescape 2018-07-11 08:22 pm (UTC)(link)
    [Freya cant totally tell that this is not what Edna likes doing. On the one hand, she doesn't understand why Edna is bothering to talk to her. On the other hand, she's tickled pink that Edna would spend the time and frustration to answer her questions.]

    So three angels made the mountain?

    [There is a brief thoughtful pause.]

    Yup, I can't argue with that. That is probably the coolest thing ever. And you mean like actual Seraph not just, you know, happen to come from the stars, because I feel like in this place, the whole comes from the stars thing is a moot point. [Before Edna can reply, Freya continues talking.] Okay, that was an awesome answer. Now other questions.

    Oh, this is relevant.

    So I get the food stuff is like, bars, or something. Is there anything else or an alternative option? Like what if I am uncertain that it'll fill me up? I kind of eat a lot. And I am not actually exaggerating. It can be a problem.

    [Edna just waits until the girl is done talking. And that takes a while because this girl can just jabber, jabber along. It's almost like being subjected to one of Lailah's stream of consciousness rambles whens he's trying to avoid talking about Maotelus.]

    We're not angels.

    And food is easily obtained on the planets or you can go to the Iskaulit and hope one of the restaurants or bars there has something that actually tastes like food and not protein globs.
    luckyescape: (Looking down)

    [personal profile] luckyescape 2018-07-13 10:49 pm (UTC)(link)
    [Talking is fun.

    It's also very apparent that Freya enjoys the light musical notes of her own voice.]
    I think that's a matter of opinion. You might not be related to the species but angels also hole religious significance and can be defined as those with powers over the natural world. My belief calls them Shapers. Either way, you shouldn't knock it in a place where people and definitions range from all over. Everyone is going to have a different set of experiences and knowledge to draw from and without the same core basics miscommunication will be common.

    [A moment of worldly and logical insight before Freya nods her head with a happy grin.]

    Noted. I guess there isn't a library around here? You know, books instead of computers? [At some point she should look up anything that might be poisonous to her. Not that Freya thinks her species can get poisoned but she has a special set of allergies and she doesn't want to accidently kill herself by eating chocolates distant cousin or something.

    She exhaled a tired breath. This is probably the reason that infants cry as much as they do; so much is uncomfortable and everything is clearly trying to kill you.]
