“We were looking for a way out of the maze. He was helping me and – hm, well, maybe I wasn’t helping him any. I don’t know where I am now.”
The hedges grew in the typical labyrinthian fashion, but Lucy knew better than to think Gabriel was nearby. The plants themselves were different – the moss more emerald and the leaves less…[Read more]

Having fun having him explain too. And seeing Rory’s reactions. XD

Leo

“Here God made light. It wasn’t light from a star or something. He just said ‘Let there be Light’ and light was made–unrestrained, u contained light. Then God divided the light from darkness. Here he makes a distinction that there will be places…[Read more]

@loopylin

Why would you apologize for that.

Not sure why either…XD

*Waiting for info dump*

Rory

He looked down at the page, still thinking over what Leo had said. “And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. 4 And God saw that the light was good. And God separated the light from the darkness. God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening and there was morni…[Read more]

@loopylin

Yes, oops. Central

@loopylin @ellette-giselle

Leo

A soft smile was tugging up the corner of his mouth. This kid knew so little of everything that really mattered. An ache burrowed deep in Leo’s chest.

“In the Beginning God created. That’s the beginning of time. God made that. But that isn’t all. He also made the heavens and the earth–space and matter. The earth…[Read more]

*trying really hard not to info dump about Getwinn*

*Still spying in the corner* I’m listening

@ellette-giselle @koshka @loopylin this conversation about God’s creation is so beautiful

Rory

He took the book in his hands, looking at it with interest. All of his reading had been done on a datapad. He tapped the surface to see what would happen. When nothing changed, he lifted the page and turned it over, surprised to find more words. Looking down at the words, he cleared his throat and read slowly. “In the…[Read more]

Leo

He blinked. Smiled.

“No. Here, let me show you.” He turned sideways in his seat to open the filing drawer, pulled out a worn backpack, and settled back in place. It took a minute for him to get the zipper open, but it finally gave enough for him to slip his hand in and find his Bible. It was worn nearly as much as…[Read more]

@loopylin

XD

Sorry if I caused this research rabbit hole, but also not. That’s really cool.

@loopylin

Oh my. lol.

@koshka  @loopylin

(Sorry loopy, not meaning to leave you in the dust XD)

Rory

He listened with interest. “Are stars the only thing God made?”

@loopylin @ellette-giselle

Leo

The filing cabinet bit into his leg as he sat down.

“What? No. Well…” Now that definitely wasn’t a way he’d ever thought to view the end of the world. He decided to treat this like one of Quincy’s questions…or like Silvia’s many years ago. “I’m guessing they never let you study astronomy. So in the beginning…[Read more]

@koshka  @loopylin

Rory

He stared at Leo. “The stars are on power? Who flips the switch?” He wasn’t surprised at the idea. It just had never crossed his mind.

@loopylin @ellette-giselle

Leo

“Oh. Well, fission is much more than bombs. It’s a relatively clean source of energy as long as nothing goes wrong. Most of the–ahem–my home planet’s energy is run off it. Same thing that God made power the stars.”

@koshka  @loopylin

Rory

He blinked slowly. “We have bombs. Planes drop them. I never knew how they worked. I just pushed the button… or did.” He swallowed and absently tugged at his sleeve, ensuring the burn scar was fully covered.

@ellette-giselle @loopylin

XD

Leo

“From…well, bombs generally. Rockets, missiles, whatever version you like.” He slowly dried his hands off on a paper towel and turned to study the two boys. “Don’t know what fallout is? You kids don’t have nuclear fission back wherever you came from?”

A pair and a half of large questioning eyes stared back…[Read more]

@koshka  @loopylin

Rory

He eyed Dante with a measuring glance. “I haven’t done fallout stuff… or whatever it is.” He left it there, not sure what to say next.

@loopylin @ellette-giselle

*Exhausted sigh*

Leo

“…what I’m doing? Helping clean up a kid. Same job I’ve had since my sister was born.” Leo grinned, then let it fade. The old bandage disappeared into a trashbin. He moved to the sink to wash his hands. “Or did you mean like, with medical stuff? To be honest, I’ve got more expirence with…[Read more]
