[He was still learning this whole earpiece device, so excuse him for it turning on and there sound like someone was fiddling with the setting. Where was his far more technologically inclined smart kid to help him? Ah well, he did realize it was on sooner than later thankfully.]

Uh... sorry? [Chagrin tone.] I was curious about an idea, since I still consider myself fairly new to this situation. Here's hoping you all with entertain me here:

What does a sense of community mean or feel like to you?

[A beat of a pause.]

Is it friends and family? Is it gathering places and camaraderie? How about a sense of people uniting for a specific purpose in mind? Everyone here has their own agendas and their own interests, and, with no overt crime present at the moment, it's curious to me how we could build a sense of community around these parts.

I assume there are far more worlds than ours out there. How many are already slated for destruction, if Aurora is meant to be believed? Perhaps our very presence here is suggestive of worlds are less in danger than those without individuals to fight for them.

Who knows. Maybe we have it all wrong.

It could all just be a trick. But the stakes are too high to write it off in that way, necessarily. But... I think at the end of the day, everyone will prioritize their own worlds, or the worlds that are closest to their own.

But if she is telling the truth, I don't buy that we can only save so many. If we're gunning for it anyway, we have to go beyond what we're told we can do, you know?

Of course, and why shouldn't they? In the end, we have personal agendas for our own worlds, but I know some that would care little about their worlds as long as certain elements remained here. I assume that could be the same for others.

I agree. We have to assume we can save as many that want to participate.
