There are more than twelve months in my year.

[meteorstorm]

Which would make no sense to us.

[yellowhasthechest]

We don't add random days, either.

[meteorstorm]

One day every four years isn't the most random it could be.

[yellowhasthechest]

It's still annoying.

[meteorstorm]

I never said it wasn't.

[yellowhasthechest]

And anyway, your seasons are too short, too. They keep sneaking up on me.

[meteorstorm]

They do have a way of doing that, yes.

[yellowhasthechest]

Even to you?

[meteorstorm]

Even to us.

[yellowhasthechest]

[Just laughs.]

This is the weirdest place. Of course, it would be, you're out in the middle of nowhere.

[meteorstorm]

This place basically is the middle of nowhere.

[yellowhasthechest]

I meant Earth in general.

I dunno if you know this, but your galaxy doesn't have a whole lot of neighbors.

[meteorstorm]

Our space program hasn't gotten out that far.

[yellowhasthechest]

Mm.

You have a couple, but not a lot. But they have a lot of little dwarf galaxies around them, although they don't really have much.

[meteorstorm]

[ things he is actually interested in: that ]

Oh?

[yellowhasthechest]

I'm not the best with directions but I think Andromeda should be the closest that isn't just a dwarf.

[meteorstorm]

We only know what we've seen from telescopes. The moon is the farthest anyone has gone, and we've only recently landed anything successfully on Mars.

[yellowhasthechest]

The natives will be happy about that, I'm sure.

[meteorstorm]

There's no life on Mars. Or any other planet around us.

[yellowhasthechest]

That depends very much on how you define life.

[meteorstorm]

I'm not sure we've even found bacteria or single-celled organisms.

[yellowhasthechest]

That's probably because you're arrogant enough to say that just because you haven't met them, they don't exist. You talk about being the only kids on the block and wonder why the others don't want to come play with you!

[meteorstorm]

You don't make any sense. Most of them can't support life.

[yellowhasthechest]

It can't support you. Doesn't mean it can't support life.
