And this is Earth? We know that for sure?

There's a lot of radiation where I come from.

[houmaprotector]

I'm familiar with what radiation does to plants. I haven't seen any signs of it here. This is all natural.

I'd lean more towards genetic manipulation of some sort.

[kingbellamy]

I can't handle extreme radiation, but my body metabolizes it differently.

[houmaprotector]

Are you human?

[kingbellamy]

Yes. I've descended from people who lived on Earth before it was ruined. I was born in 2126, on the space station.

[houmaprotector]

[ruined.

earth.

ruined. earth. You knew something like that would happen. Even before everything you suspected it. You just thought you could prevent it.

it's a punch to the gut he doesn't have.]

Humans. You're a human. How did the earth get ruined?

[kingbellamy]

I am human, yes. Earth was destroyed by an AI that thought there were too many people. She launched everyone's nukes. 97 years passed and we came down from the space station to find Earth in pretty good condition.

Then the nuclear reactors had a meltdown and destroyed everything again.

[houmaprotector]

[To say he's angry is an understatement but- of course.

Anger gives way to disappointment.]

I see.

[Human response Alec. Must try for human response.]

I'm sorry. You deserved better. I am not seeing any signs of radiation at any of the plants I've seen so far? But I haven't ranged out far yet. It may change deeper into the forest.

[kingbellamy]

I'd love a radiation free planet. Before I ended up in the fountain, my friend found a planet for us. It had two suns.

We just wanted a home.

[houmaprotector]

You deserved better from the humans in your world. You'll have it in this one.

This...place. Despite being strange is fertile. Do you have any experience with plants?

[kingbellamy]

Thank you for saying that.

A little more than most people. My friend Monty farmed algae for us to eat while we were in space. I may have watched him a few times.

[houmaprotector]

If you'd like to learn, I will teach you.

[He's not going to even make you swear to protect the green. You got screwed over enough in this multiverse.]

[kingbellamy]

I'd like that a lot, actually. When my family and I get to where we're going, we're going to set up crops. If we get seeds...

Sorry. Right. Yes I would like that.

[houmaprotector]

I'm planning a trip with another individual this coming...Monday? You're welcome to join.

[kingbellamy]

Count me in.

Did I introduce myself? I don't know how to scroll on this thing. I'm Bellamy Blake.

[houmaprotector]

Alec Holland.

I'm a botanist and chemist by trade. I'll teach you by having you help me collect samples.</ big>

[kingbellamy]

Nice to make your acquaintance.

Monty was very much into agriculture. His last name was even Green. Kind of funny.

I can collect samples, no problem.

[houmaprotector]

I'll remind you as the date approaches then.

[kingbellamy]

Thanks. I don't think I have much to do so whenever.

[houmaprotector]

That is the downside to this place. There is not a lot for people to do who are used to constant struggle.

[kingbellamy]

When we escaped the nuclear meltdown the second time, we were stuck in space for six years, right? Nothing to do. There were old movies in some of the databases. Chess sets with scraps of metal for the bishops. I hope I don't go crazy here.
