A new friend!

[vila_restal]

I've made a lovely new friend on this LJ inter-universe thingy! Her name's Kasumi Karen and she's new here, so I'd like to invite some of you round to meet her. Karen's a fire-dragon from old Tokyo before it was domed. Well, not a real dragon--as you can see, she's a very pretty lady. It's her title, and not an insult at all, not like with Servalan.

Time itself? [Avon blinks.] Yes, well... that would put the loss of a planet or two into perspective.

Well, I for one, will not badger you to destroy this continuum. For all its faults, I should prefer to let it muddle along. You never know, people might become truly intelligent one day.

Well, I suspect it's all the same to the people on the planet. The children keep thinking of our current dilemma as being one facing only Earth, but I suspect it may be more far reaching.

Exactly! If we stop the universe now, we'll never know what might have happened. Granted, mortals never really know much of what might have happened, but it's still better to know some than none.

Besides, no good scientist would stop an experiment before it had reached a conclusion--- just think, we might have to start all over and go through the whole business all over again. [Shudders] I really wouldn't care to rerun my childhood again.

Karen winces. Would anyone? I doubt even planets and stars would want to repeat their early stages.

Being a ball of condensing matter can't be very exciting. [Avon smiles.] Then again, I've never tried it.

I suppose it might hold a strange sort of interest. But there must be a thousand attendant embarassments at your imperfections.

Only if you know what you're supposed to be evolving into. I doubt an ameba worries that it hasn't the proper sort of flagella.

But a star might have a notion what sort of shape stars are meant to be, and you know how teenagers are. Always certain they'll never look right or think or have the proper core intensity...
