For longer distances? Ships, mostly. The kind that fly, not the kind you can sail. Please tell me you're not from one of those worlds that doesn't have space travel, because it's getting old explaining it.
well we've got the shuttle program i'm guessing your space hoppers hop a little more than that we've got satellites out toward neptune but the farthest humans have gotten is the moon
also pretty much impossible but cool in a sci-fi way so, what? was the tripwire tied to a bomb at the planet's core? was the planet a giant machine? was it called the death star?
[ The pictures are a while coming, either because the 'boys and chrome' comment threw him or because hi-res pictures are hard to take when it's dark and you've just got a tablet camera, but eventually House receives several decently lit shots of women in bikinis atop hotrods. ]
[And now Jim is being ignored in favor of House actually trying to read some of the articles from the magazine. The girls are nice, but he's trying to get an idea of the time period for the magazine.]

you're kidding me, right?
I guess not. Better than everyone from Gaia, they're still trying to get off planet.
I've been a lot further than that. Our spaceport is a moon's distance.

have you got a warp drive?
beryllium crystals?
wormhole portals?
or do you just spend half your lives traveling between planets?
sigh.
Found a portal that'll take you anywhere in the galaxy recently but it kind of blew up.
8D
nope
sounds made up
taking it that's a special piece of space
in which case
we're going if you have warp drive with a fancy name
also, based on the "kind of"
i'm guessing you helped blow it up

And I wasn't the one who hit the trip wire to blow up the planet it was on, alright? I was just there when it happened.

also pretty much impossible
but cool in a sci-fi way
so, what?
was the tripwire tied to a bomb at the planet's core?
was the planet a giant machine?
was it called the death star?
no subject
No it isn't.
Yes.
Yes.
No but it should've been, that sounds a lot cooler. Guess pirates aren't really creative.
no subject
and you managed to blow it up?
gg, slim jim

It blew along with a queen's ransom of treasure. Not my best day, and that was before I was brought here.
no subject
not a queen's ransom???
[ Jim, you must realize the corrections are only going to encourage him. He's less mature than you are. ]
what were you doing with pirates, anyway?
too cool to run away with the circus?

[ Jiminy - If that sticks, Jim's going to… well, let's be honest, Jim isn't going to do anything. But he'll be really annoyed about it. ]
I'll photograph the rest of this magazine if you'll call me Jim. Hawkins is fine too. There are a couple of women not wearing a whole lot in here.
