I'm Not A Magnet, But I Might Have Poles...

In comparison to my last post, I feel much more...chipper, I suppose, about things.

Anywho~! I found some pictures of the places we'll be going in the Peace Core and I thought I'd share with you all.


Isn't that really pretty? :D

What I wouldn't give to know light well enough to make a show like that... But yes, this is a picture that I found from Ioine, the planet we'll be landing and clubbing on. All the light...:3

I don't know what everyone else is doing for shopping for proper clothes, but I'm thankfully all set and therefore do not need to venture outside of the ship until we're ready to go.

Ah, right, I didn't mention where at least Nemo, Hobson, and I are going: it's a place called Sunshine, which apparently specializes in a 'UV light experience'--and not to worry, Vanessa, it says on their website that it's safe for vampires of all suns.

And here's an image of one of the side streets off of where we'll be! Sunshine is down to the left.

I couldn't get a more specific picture, I'm afraid. Still, pretty good quality for a 'net search. But wow, just look at those stars, they're absolutely beautiful, don't you think? I think I'd go out just to see those.

The stars are what made me fall in love with the idea of space travel in the first place, actually. My dad knew a lot of constellations, which were easier to pick out since where we lived, it was pretty dark at night, not a whole lot of light pollution, I mean. Every year we used to watch the Nuletide Showers--it wasn't really so much a shower as a bombardment of highly charged particles that looked more like drunken lightning bugs plummeting out of a pastel Aurora and into the ground, but still. It was beautiful, and I wanted to see more beautiful things out past the blackness of space.

I actually kinda miss it.

Sorry, sorry! Things got a little heavy there, I think.

Anyway, I'm going to go start getting ready for some teaching. Vanessa's shown me a few videos that were very...insightful.

I can't wait for tonight. :)

  1. Nemo: Wow, that club looks impressive! My contact certainly has good taste...

    Hobson: I think I'd prefer seeing the Nuletide showers, thank you very much.

    Nemo: But Hobson, look at the colors! The lights! Though the showers sound cool too...and really, can anyone wait for tonight? ;3

    1. Veneer: Maybe we could stop by home some time, and see them? ^_^ They really are quite beautiful. I've never really seen anything like them.

      And yes, I am duly excited! :D

    2. Hobson: That'd be nice. Perhaps if we end up nearby, for whatever reason...

      Nemo: We'll just have to see~

  2. Cyrus: Those Nuletide showers sound so pretty...we can almost imagine seeing them, if we close our eyes. May we ask what planet you're from, Veneer?

    1. Veneer: I grew up on the planet Ferraline. Have you been there before?

    2. Cyrus:...The name sounds familiar, but...we're not sure...hmm...but perhaps we have! Maybe if we visit it again, it shall jog our memory! :D

    3. Veneer: It would be nice if we could visit. :) I haven't heard from my Uncle in a while, I think my transmissions are getting lost somewhere in a solar storm or something.

      Actually, Nuletide /is/ coming up soon-ish...

    4. Cyrus: Then we definitely should visit, and make sure he's okay! And see Nuletide while we're there! ^^

  3. Vanessa: Are you qualified to teach Hobson to shuffle yet?

    1. Veneer: Maybe! Can we run through it one more time?

  4. Clept: Will anyone teach me how to "dance?" It would add to my in depth observations on how other supernatural creatures spend their time...

    1. I'm not a supernatural creature... But I could try to teach you how to dance!

    2. Vanessa: I can teach you to dance! I can teach you ALL the moves! I bet you'd be really great at break dancing.

    3. Veneer: This sounds like fun. 8D

    4. Clept: Yes, that would be greatly appreciated. When do we start?
