Futuristic Fate of the Stars of Life (Out-of-Character & Episode Thread)

[Meme Machine]

Aw. Thank you

 

[CaptainRustbolt21]

Two little facts 'bout the series I'd thought I share to you guys.

• The planet Mercury is nonexistent because the Humans had to disassemble it in order to create the Dyson Swarm.
• Even in real life, terraforming a planet, both pre- and post-, is a lot more complicated than you think.

I don’t usually bump posts, but I feel like we’ve all forgotten about this one.

 

[BoltBeam]

I ain't, there's not been much for me to stem off of.

 

[CaptainRustbolt21]

I'm just waking up, I feel like COMPLETE shi---and I walk downstairs....I think I have the best family ever...it's been 7 years since I got out of the hospital because of this horrible sickness I can't remember the name of. I wasn't supposed to survive yet here I am and I totally forgot it's been 7 years since I got out, I love my family

Waaaaait a minute, you never mentioned that you had a sickness!

Lux wakes up from the hum of the foreign engine. Good thing he didn't hear the pilot or the Krystallines would have lost a member. He stays next to Talia, not being able to shake the bad feeling that he has. It could be nothing, but he isn't 100% sure.

Y'know, I was about to remind you that Krystallines are resistant to plasma, but I just remembered taking research on the temperature of plasma and the melting point of diamond. Even if Krystalline skin is stronger than diamond, plasma has the temperature of 10,000 Kelvin (17540°F) and could very likely cut diamond. So...

Lux is probably aware of this. Part of his backstory is learning lots of little tips and tricks with science, biology, and stuff. Mentally, one of the smartest and practical there is. Physically, pretty strong. Not nearly the strongest. Emotionally...no. Just no.

 

[CaptainRustbolt21]

Fun fact: My favorite class subject is history. I always find our cultural, technological, and biological evolution quite fascinating.

[The One-Sided Coin]

I love that video. It's awesome.

 

[CaptainRustbolt21]

And surprisingly educative. I've read comments that said that it helped them pass their world history exam.

 

[The One-Sided Coin]

Reddit helps too. Sometimes.

 

[Meme Machine]

Tali’s isn’t very strong, or very smart, but emotionally? She can tear you apart.

 

[Meme Machine]

And that video man. It’s great

 

[The One-Sided Coin]

Huh. Good thing Lux has the emotional capacity of a spoon.

 

[CaptainRustbolt21]

Emotional capacity of a spoon?

 

[The One-Sided Coin]

A figure of speech that I made up. He has little to no emotions, and it takes a lot to bring them out.

 

[Meme Machine]

Talia has seen a lot of things. She knows how to find someone’s weak spot, and how to exploit it.

 

[The One-Sided Coin]

She likely already knows Lux's weak spot.

 

[CaptainRustbolt21]

Ahh, okay. Also, you sure Lux is a Human? He is more described as some sort of android than a Human. Also, here's a couple of interstellar laws from the Galactic Alliance I thought you guys would know!

• Neutrality Act - "In order to preserve the impartiality of the interstellar faction and the prevention of performing multiple conflicts simultaneously, this active law forbids Galactic Alliance species members from entering foreign conflicts without jurisdiction; any member caught entering a foreign conflict will be faced with severe punishment. However, the act of entering a foreign conflict will only be justified if one of the belligerents in the foreign conflict strikes the Galactic Alliance." (tl;dr: GA members are not allowed to enter foreign wars unless they attacked us first)
• CHIRP Act (Cancellation and Halting of Interstellar Robotic Production) - "Due to the recent rise of the genocidal Roborg Empire and the cause behind it, this active law temporarily forbids construction and marketing of robots and other robot-based machines in order to reduce the risk of the Roborg virus spreading and infecting other machines and sabotage construction of military weapons and public amenities. This law also restricts the surgical insertion of robotic prosthetics; if an individual has prosthetics, then they must have medical documents proving that they have them legally." (tl;dr: Robots are pulled from the market and you need proof that you earned your robotic implants legally)

 

[The One-Sided Coin]

He's mostly human. There is a reveal that I was going to do later in this little series.

Also, how do you come up with this stuff!?

 

[CaptainRustbolt21]

I'm quite creative and have a little foresight. Can ya blame me?

 

[The One-Sided Coin]

Not at all. Do you have like a whole page of stuff, or do you come up with this on the fly?

 

[CaptainRustbolt21]

Usually on the fly.

 

[The One-Sided Coin]

Damn. That's awesome.

 

[Meme Machine]

Nice. I couldn’t do that, lol
