[politicallyinclined]

I have tried to stay optimistic - hopeful, at least - in regards to our mission. I have seen planets die and stars burn out; even relocating those on said dying planets doesn't always work out well. Not everyone is equipped to adjust to new environments even if they are similar to what they had before.

(They have to be successful in other words. They have to.)

I wish to represent multiple worlds since there are many in my galaxy that have no representation. Are there any others in our number who feel likewise? I know that space travel isn't common; we can only help the worlds that we recall.

(She wishes she had brought maps with her!)

I am also curious how many of us have military or fighting experience? I would like to know who to call on should I find myself or others in a tight situation.

Those of my world have gone no further than the moon, when it comes to "space".

In the literal sense, I'm a weapon. If someone is in danger, you may call on me.

[politicallyinclined]

This must be overwhelming for you. If we are able to leave this world in a ship, I can help you adjust.

What sort of weapon?

[prevail]

I appreciate the offer. The only ships I'm familiar with sailed the skies or seas.

I'm unsure how to answer your question.

[politicallyinclined]

You claim to be a weapon; do you mean that metaphorically or in actuality?

[prevail]

Ah. Then yes, I did mean it when I said it was literal.

My kind were created that way, although our purposes vary widely.

[politicallyinclined]

I don't wish to awaken any bad memories, but your abilities could be very useful. (She can't help but think of the clones.)

[prevail]

You don't need to worry, but you're kind for considering that.

Primal beings are numerous, and some had more or less freedom than others originally. As a primarch, I wasn't used as a means of suppression.

[politicallyinclined]

I appreciate you offering your skills. My name is Padmé and I am sorry to say I'm not much of a soldier at all. I am a decent shot, but my talents are in the senate chamber.

[prevail]

Hence asking for those capable of defending when the need arises... It's wise to be prepared.

We don't seem to lack in combatants. Those skilled in negotiation and accustomed to considering populations are surely rarer.

I neglected to say: name is Sandalphon.

'World' and 'universe' seem interchangeable in this case.

My name is Steve Rogers. I was in the military but most of my fighting experience has been outside that. Glad to help if you need it.

[ The reason for Xingchen's answer being video is immediately obvious - he's blind. ]

I am a rouge cultivator, or was, in my world. Not of crops, but of spiritual energy. I'm skilled with the sword, and experienced with putting ghosts to rest. You may call on me. My name is Xiao Xingchen.

[politicallyinclined]

I'm glad to meet you, Sandalphon. I do want to be prepared - as much as we are able. And if I can speak to our foes before any fighting takes place, I will do so. Negotiations are vital for saving lives.

[politicallyinclined]

They might be; I'm not sure. If we could fly through space infinitely, would we discover each world eventually?

Thank you for offering to help. I'm Padmé and fighting isn't exactly my forte. But if I can unite those in need with those who can defend, perhaps I will do some good.

[politicallyinclined]

(Bless his heart. Padmé admires his bravery immediately.)

You sound a bit like a Jedi. (In other words - a very good ally.) Thank you for offering your skills. I'm Padmé.

[prevail]

In such a case, I'll hope your words will reach them. I'd rather avoid unnecessary conflict as well, when lives are often fragile.

Do you know what people call "self-defense"?

[bright_moon]

[ His smile is warm. ]

I do not know that name. Of course. I'm happy to help however I can.

[politicallyinclined]

As would I.

I was taught self-defense before I became Queen of Naboo. I can handle a blaster - or any gun as long as it isn't too big. But I can also evade attacks.

[politicallyinclined]

They are the protectors of my galaxy. From my experience, they are very selfless.

(Which Xingchen seems to be too.)

Are you going to talk to the ones behind all this?

[prevail]

Being able to hold out until help arrives, if it's ever necessary, is a useful skill. Did your training involve unarmed training, or primarily firearms?

[politicallyinclined]

I'm not physically strong enough for unarmed combat. My training was based on agility and evasion.

(She is a petite woman, but she is quick.)

[politicallyinclined]

If I am able. I don't know how far I will get.

[tinflower]

It's good to try. I wouldn't know what to say to them. They probably wouldn't listen to me.

Is there anything you need other than fighters? Or people who can talk good.

[politicallyinclined]

Why do you think that? They should be willing to listen to all of us.

If you're willing to help others, that's what we need most. Whether that be with defense or healing or speaking up to our hosts, all of it is helpful.
