Hello,
How is everyone? Are you all sleeping well?

[ After at least three rough drafts, and one peer review by her (illiterate) roommate, Juvia has finally arrived onto the network with a post she can be proud of. ]

Juvia has been thinking. Are there any stories you all like?
Or, maybe, things from your home you want to share. It could be anything. Your favorite food, person, book, or place.
I will share something to start: Juvia would bring her guild, Fairy Tail, if she could.

Thank you

What is a robot

[ Juvia is happy that Rocket is at least trying to participate but she's just, so very confused and unsure about a lot of the terminology being used and what's even going on.... ]

Quill doesn't sound like he's very good at telling stories, if this is all there is to it..
Thank you for trying to share, though, Rocket. What I read was interesting for what it's worth, especially the romance subplot.

Juvia has a story similar to that that happened to her guild before, if you'd like to listen.

It's like... a person, only made of metal and wires. LOOK QUILL WAS REALLY DRUNK WHEN HE TOLD THIS STORY,
AND I GOT A GOOD MEMORY.

[HUFF PUFF.]

You have a story about people coming from the future to kill somebody in the past?

Oh. Ok. Then I don't understand why the robots would want to rise up against the humans if they're like people. You need Quill to tell it to you again so I can know

And no. Juvia was encased in lacrima the entire time this happened, [ said in the most petty tone she can muster ] but our guild was sucked into a world exactly like ours. My friends saved us with the help of their Edolas counterparts.
Unfortunately, I never got to meet the Juvia there
She sure is a lucky girl

[He could try to explain that humans are terrible and that is the entire point, but meh.]

Okay, so now I know how you feel about the "robot" thing,
'cause I understood like... three words of that. So they got sucked into an alternate universe, 'cause that is a thing that happens.

What the hell is lacrima?

Lacrima are magic infused crystals. Juvia didn't get all the details, [ because a talking cat only told her the parts she really cared about ie her counterpart's love life ] but our guild turned was turned into that.

And was sucked into an alternate universe with a guild exactly like ours, but opposite.
So Juvia was there.. physically and in spirit.

Oh.

That's really weird. And I've seen some weird shit. There's an entire planet where the inhabitants are just lines and dots.

Juvia doesn't know what happened, at all..
but if I was there, I would think it'd be weird too.

What do you mean though? An entire planet where everyone's lines and dots??

An entire planet where the dominant species were lines and dots.

Could not make this up if I tried.

How did you
How did you talk to them??

They're like telepathic or something. Go figure.

It was a real crap planet.

What would you consider a good planet then,
Rocket?

Ideally, one just sketchy enough to be interesting, and full of people with bounties on their heads.

Rocket.. people with bounties does NOT make a good planet.

They do if you're a bounty hunter.

[ That's.. that's a good point because while she may do the same work-- ]

But what about your friends?! Bounties can't be the only factor in that.

You mean my friends who are also bounty hunters?

[OKAY SO THEY'RE GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY, but it's mostly a lot of beating up/killing things for money, so what's the difference?]

[ ROCKET!!!!!!!!!! STOP TRYING TO DISPROVE HER POINT!!!!! ]

So, So they're only friends with you because of work?!?!???? That can't be it right?!

I mean there were circumstances that brought us together that ultimately made us stay together, and maybe it's more complicated than that, but... Mostly.

[THAT IS A LIE. also stop being contrary to be contrary. you'll make Juvia sad.]

[ She stares at his message. Stares at it with the all the intensity and stubbornness Juvia can muster. Mostly, he says.. ]

So is Quill mostly your friend?

[HNNNNNNNGH]

Yeah, sure. Whatever. And it ain't like we got anyone else from our doomed frickin' galaxy except Mantis, so we might as well embrace that we're friends.

Happy?

Yes. Juvia is happy.
And also glad that you have two friends from your home here, Mantis and Quill.

Although, I am not happy about the "doomed galaxy" part.

Everyone's galaxy is doomed courtesy of that Storm business,
so that one's just what it is.

You aren't wrong. It just feels surreal thinking about something like that, knowing its already happened.

Do you think that will happen here? To this world.

The Celestials seem pretty confident it won't, and while I don'tr trust them completely, I also don't wanna be paranoid to the point of not functioning over something I can't freakin' do anything about.

You do make a good point. Even if it's easy to be suspicious of them, something on that big of a scale is really nothing we tiny people can do about.. Juvia never thought she'd have to worry about these kinds of things before.

Celestial beings and what their motives might be, I mean.
