It's Hange, Hange, Hange! Were you looking for me? I'll get back to you posthaste. Or when it's convenient.

You think they'll be happy you picked them up and moved them into space?

[14thcommander]

We're moving to a new planet! But no. I think we're letting ourselves in for a lot of inconvenience and struggle and hard work. But they won't be dead, and we won't be eradicating anyone else, so it will have to do.

I'm also thinking about asking the Admiral to just move us to a replica of the planet we're currently on.

[beejfu]

Oh, look at you! The old bait and switch. You did learn some trickster shit from me after all!

[14thcommander]

Heheheh.

[Yeah! The thing about that one is, it's not really what Hange wants to do. It's the safe option, sure... but they could go anywhere! Somewhere amazing, somewhere new...

On the other hand, this is for her people, not for her.]

Yeah. So that might be a promising option. We'd know what's edible and what's not, where mineral and metal deposits are - at least some of them - the weather patterns, game animals and how to catch and prepare them...

[beejfu]

Plus, you get rid of all the outside assholes who wanna do you harm and if any kids dare each other to go beyond the borders, they're not gonna start any international incidents.

Leaving you and I to go running around the galaxy.

[14thcommander]

I still gotta say and help people get settled - we'll lose a lot of infrastructure. Unless I literally have the Admiral swap the land, and he agrees to do that...

[beejfu]

Yeah, why not? Just pick it up and move the whole section of land. Copy/paste.

[14thcommander]

It sort of depends on what the Admiral says must be a separate deal! I have to make this one stretch as far as possible.

[beejfu]

Yeah.

Hey, you want me to proofread? All demons have to take contract law courses. Standard Hell 101.

[14thcommander]

Oh, yeah. When the time comes. I'm still sort of in the idea-generating stage.

[beejfu]

It's a great place to be in, isn't it?

[14thcommander]

Ha haaa... usually I'd agree, but I can't wait for this one to be settled.

[beejfu]

But hey! At least with me graduating, the pressure's off for you a little bit, right?

[14thcommander]

It's true. The broad sweeps are done. I just need to work out the details to maximize our success now.

[beejfu]

And you are welcome!

[14thcommander]

Hahaha. Thank you, Betelgeuse.
