[ Well, it is cold in Highstorm, so... decent shot that Demeisen at least temporarily gets a coat.
But in the here and now, Amos can at least look at the face of the guy he's talking to. Fading is the novelty of staring over an unfamiliar body type, and he doesn't even have the grace to look embarrassed when Demeisen calls him out on it.
Like, yeah. What else was he supposed to be doing? He's going to consider that answer, a thoughtful little tilt to his head. ]
Where I'm from, I'd never met any aliens. We found a bunch of dead ones' old stuff, but the aliens themselves were already, you know. Dead. [ The shrug is in his voice; what're you gonna do? ] There're some here, though. Bits of life get pulled in from around dying universes, you're gonna end up with a decent bit of variety.
[ Pause. And, without a hint of awareness: ] Most do tend to look more like me, though.
[ Lots of regular humans and human-shaped beings around these parts. Amos settles back, comfortable. ]
Never heard of the Quyn system. I'm from Sol. Spent some time in Ilus, but nobody actually lived there yet. People were only just starting to colonize it back then.
[ He's watching Demeisen as he tosses names out there, curious on if any are gonna stick. Chances are incredibly likely they're from entirely separate universes, but... who really knows, right? ]
