She Blinded Me with Science

[whoseesbynight]

Characters: Nepeta and Even
Content: Nepeta is an alien. Science occurs.
Location: Even's place
Time: Evening Midday
Warnings: None at the moment

All things considered, Nepeta didn't think much of the fact that she'd shared certain details about her species with Ienzo. After all, it wasn't like she'd been trying to keep it a secret. Not when she didn't look particularly human in the first place. She might not have expected the word to get around, but well. It didn't do any harm for it to get about.

Thus, she simply continued on much as she always had. If even wanted to ask further details about how trolls worked, he'd have to come to the room she considered hers and ask in person.

Let's face it, Even would probably rather she were an encyclopedia. For one thing, they're easier to cross-reference.

He sighs louder than necessary. "And what is a Sgrub?"

[whoseesbynight]

Ah, now that is something that Nepeta can explain without any sort of trouble. It's one advantage of having spent so long in the game construct.

"It's a game," she answers. "One that we had to play because our world was being destroyed."

[defrostedpride]

Unsurprisingly, Even does not find this particularly explanatory. At the very least, his notes were increasingly complicated and illegible enough without adding an entire new category.

"A game? What kind of - how was your world being destroyed?" Please don't say Heartless, please don't say Heartless...

[whoseesbynight]

Fortunately for Even, the answer is not Heartless. No, this destruction has been a much more mundane sort of destruction.

"By meteors. Once we'd started the game the meteors were going to destroy efurrything so we all had to get into the game befur they hit. Otherwise we would have all died."
