Beka is not sure what she was expecting as a result of walking into a snake monster but an Elf city would have been very low on a list of possibilities if someone had jumbled a lot of random words together into place-phrases and had her rank them. "Elf city" would probably have been under "spider void" and above "grape juice ocean". And yet here she is.
She can't, she was away too much when the baby was born, had to join the army to make money for the credit. She supposes telepathic aliens probably do not report directly to Tapai population control.
Many of those words did not make any sense and osanwë usually suffices to bridge vocabulary gaps. Uh. I'm very sorry that you can't.
Well they probably haven't heard of Tapa any more than she's heard of Beleriand. Not sure what else would be confusing.
Credit so she's allowed to have the baby. The baby was not planned and she had to buy aftermarket, marked up hideously, still not paid off. Population control so they don't have too many people.
Huh. We don't do that here. Angband doesn't do that, Valinor doesn't do that, Doriath doesn't do that.
...cause otherwise there will be too many people, and they will have to kill each other to have enough space and food and stuff.
Huh. You can explain it to the King and maybe after the war is over he'll look into it. Humans can't help having children, though, it just happens randomly.
Yeah it wouldn't work if you haven't invented birth control.
Where's her pocket everything, did they break it? She probably won't be able to charge it here anyway.
These are real dumb aliens. It's safe. There's probably some way to make it explode but she doesn't know how. Electricity. Stuff you do so you can have sex in spring and not have a baby. She would've done it but she'd had a girlfriend and they'd broken up anyway and she hadn't gotten around to it when orange boy got her alone.
Huh. We haven't invented that, or birth control. I'll have some people get working on it. Is it safe to keep your species confined for extended periods of time?
Elves die. I'm trying to figure out what we'll need for you to be safe and comfortable while we're uncertain if it's safe to have you wandering about. He pats Beka. We made it work last time.
