[Ochita]

*Aegis and Ochita decide to go into the settlement, where they realize that there are no above-ground homes, except for that... Space.. Thing...*
"Ochita, I wonder what that is... Shall we explore it?"
"Yes, lets."

[Tellemurius]

*throws some cheese to Tenshi*
"here you go"
*munches a biscuit along with the cheese*

[Something Evil]

"My wish is to know whether my selves can frequent establishments here, mainly trade and cultural ones, libraries, and the likes, without fear of cries of rage from someone who finds razor-limbs and camouflage-patterned chitin plates distasteful."

[Vorthon]

@SE: "Ehh... we Torikan actually have a number of cultures, the amalgam of earth cultures is merely the oldest. Let me see though... I have to ask you, do you have a gender? And I can't really tell you much about the cultures of the various other races in the CSE."
@Taricus: "Hmm... that might be useful for creating miniature black holes for Deep Well Industrial Zones^... You could try selling some down at the commodities exchange."

*Pays for my stuff*
^((Concept from Orion's arm. A miniature, artificial black hole {Roughly Ceres mass} is created in orbit around a gas giant. Gas brought up from the gas giant is injected into the hole's accretion disc, where it fuses into progessively heavier elements the closer it gets to the event horizon.))

@Ochita: ((Most of the CSE settlement is aboveground

[Tellemurius]

*cuts up some fish and leaves a pile of fish sushi in front of Tenshi*
"have fun"
*momentary loses focus*
((alright now to find the nice hotspot around here and hope its stable))

[Ochita]

((That is what I assumed.))
*They reach the entrance to the CSE settlement, and start to enter.*

[Taricus]

"Right, which way is that"

[Vorthon]

@Ochita:((it's not walled or anything. Most of the homes are actually apartment blocks. Tall apartment blocks.))

@Taricus: "Just head outside, turn left, then left again at the next intersection. It's got a big sign, so it should be easy to spot."

[The Merchant Of Menace]

*Gets down to her meal*
'Thanks Arekksu, I haven't eaten in... Ever I think'

[Ochita]

*While exploring the not-walled CSE place, they come to a store or something and decide to enter.*

[Taricus]

"Okay, thanks"

*Heads off to the commodities market

[Something Evil]

@SE: "Ehh... we Torikan actually have a number of cultures, the amalgam of earth cultures is merely the oldest. Let me see though... I have to ask you, do you have a gender? And I can't really tell you much about the cultures of the various other races in the CSE."

"Not technically, no. Since the vast majority of Tyranid organisms are not expected to even survive the battle they take part in, smaller strains even lack digestive systems, their mouth simply an extra weapon. And as everything on planets gets broken down to organic sludge in the final stages of planetary assimilation, the Hive analyzing any genetic information that may prove useful, we simply see sexual reproduction as something that happens to other species. Why? Does gender take some form of precedence?"

[Vorthon]

@SE: Yes, it does. The one unifiying feature of all Torikan cultures is that they are all matriarchal. Females take precedence over males. This is somewhat backed up by the sexual dimorphism in our species..."

*A skinny human with black hair and gray eyes walks in. Upon seeing Vorthon, his eyes flash with recognition.*

"Vorthon!" he exclaims, walking up to Vorthon, "It's been too long! I haven't seen you since we ran trading runs with the Obsidian!"

"Brian!" exclaims Vorthon, turning around to face the newcomer, "Brian Aschraft! I thought I'd never see you again!"

*They both wander out of the store and into the one Aegis and Ochita just entered.*

[Ochita]

*Aegis and Ochita notice the second they are in.*
"Hello. I am aegis. What is this place?"
"Oh, I'm Ochita, good to meet you..?"

[Taricus]

*Goes back to Vorthorn*

"That went very well"
