"I was wondering if I could ask assistance on a domestic matter? I recently had this odd demon run amok on the Nadesico and destroy several personal effects and was wondering if anyone would be willing to assist me on replacing them? Doing laundry every day is becoming rather bothersome and I'm a bit out of my element doing such a task on my own. Any assistance would be welcome."

"Yes, back home I was adopted. Well, twice actually, but its not a very interesting story."

So you have three families too?

[ It's unusual to meet someone in a similar situation to him. ]

"Well, I had the crew of the Nadesico. Technically I have the royal family of Peaceland too, but I was so uncomfortable there."

Video;

[shadowsher]

Yeah, one of my families was a bit uncomfortable too. But they're still family. [ At least his mom is. He isn't sure how to feel about his dad. ]

"I really don't know my biological parents well. I was raised in a lab and then on the Nadesico, I was kind of lost."

Video;

[shadowsher]

A lab? Like for science?

Video;

[electricyousei]

"Yes. Exactly."

[shadowsher]

[ He has no idea what to say now. He doesn't want to be insulting but are you a sci-fi novel? ]

Uh... was it... nice there?

Video;

[electricyousei]

"Not really. I'm not there anymore thankfully."

Video;

[shadowsher]

Oh.

[ Feeling a bit guilty for bringing it up now. ]

Sorry about that. But yeah. I'm glad you aren't there anymore, if it was a bad place...

[electricyousei]

"Thank you. It was a very long time ago so I only sort of remember. The last time I dealt with it I slapped the head of the program."

Video;

[shadowsher]

Oh. Uh, I hope it was a good slap?

[electricyousei]

"...I guess? I'm not really an expert."

Video;

[shadowsher]

[ He can't help but chuckle. ] Well, I bet they deserved it.

What's your family like now?

Video;

[electricyousei]

"Dead."

She sighs.

[shadowsher]

[ Wow, Mikale is just a stellar conversation holder today!

He's silent, not sure how to take that at first. ]

I... sorry.

Video;

[electricyousei]

She nods a little.

"Its all right, you didn't know."

Video;

[shadowsher]

[ And yet he feels worse now. ]

That must be hard. Losing family... is really the worst. [ He can't imagine what he'd do if he lost his. ] You're really strong.

Video;

[electricyousei]

"No... Not really. I just ran away from most all of it."

Video;

[shadowsher]

But you're facing it right now, right? That's what counts.

[electricyousei]

"Am I? I am on another strange world and too afraid to call my persona because she is Yurika. That and I've buried myself in a complicated project that has little value or social interaction."

Video;

[shadowsher]

... Well, I still think you're strong. I wouldn't even be able to pick up the phone, I bet.

[electricyousei]

"I didn't for months after. It happened when I was 13."

Video;

[shadowsher]

That's not the point. I mean... it's fine, for a while. But you got to it eventually. You're still going places, right?

[electricyousei]

"I guess. I'm the youngest captain in the fleet."

She shrugs a bit.
