So we're all confused... and we were all sleeping before we came here. At least I think so. Why were we kidnapped to space? That's too far to make a call for our ransom.

[ Weird of anyone to demand a ransom to Louise Grimshaw, too. They should know better than to challenge a witch like her.

More importantly: ]

At what time do we have our meals? It's very important that I eat.

Figure out a way to make yourself useful while we all figure out what the hell's going on here.

[fingerprint]

Okay. Give me a list of what you need.

[taer]

Most of what I need, I don't think I'm gonna get here. [ like a way home. ]

[fingerprint]

You never know!

[taer]

That's certainly true.

[fingerprint]

Yes, it is. There are a lot of things I don't know yet. I'll probably never get to know most of them.

[taer]

I think that's true for everyone.

[fingerprint]

Not really. There are creatures as old as time, they know everything.

[taer]

I haven't met any of them. [ well, she's met the time masters, but they didn't know everything. ]

[fingerprint]

Me neither. Which makes me wonder, if they know everything, do they know me, even though they haven't met me?

[taer]

Makes them a bit creepy if they do, don't you think?

[fingerprint]

No, I don't think so. To be creepy means it's unsettling, doesn't it?

[taer]

You don't find the thought of someone knowing everything about you while you know nothing about them unsettling?

[fingerprint]

Not really. But you do?

[taer]

Yeah, definitely.

[fingerprint]

I hope you never meet anyone like that, then. It wouldn't be nice to feel unsettled when you've just met them.

[taer]

Yeah, let's hope I don't have to be rude to someone who'll know exactly why I'm being rude.
