[ The real answer to this question is "anything is better than where I was before". ]
This world is vastly different than how I have spent the majority of my long life. Though I've been to thousands of different planets, I never really had much of an extended stay on any number of them. At times, this place has technology beyond the Galra's, but also far beneath it. It's quite strange, but in an intriguing way.
Nine days is not enough time to steal my heart away, and the wounds from my previous romantic encounter are still quite fresh. I am also, unfortunately, not exceptionally talented at befriending others—the vast majority of my life did not lend itself to such a thing. However, there are some here I find myself interested in, and have yet to become bored when conversing with them.

Mmm, yeah, I feel that, at least a little. This place uses electricity.
no subject
I've been thinking the very same thing. Even before my father's ten thousand year rule, electricity was hardly used.
no subject
Ten thousand years, huh? Yeesh.
no subject
Galra can live for centuries. However, Zarkon's life span is likely due to his exposure to our own replacement for electricity.

What do you guys use?
no subject
In moderation, it's safe to use. It can be a wonderful thing to behold. But when you are excessive with it...

My father, however, cared more for martial might than efficiency, and often slaughtered entire worlds while taking their quintessence.
[ It's mostly fine unless you are Lotor and feel like you need special quintessence in order to achieve universal peace. Then it's not fine. ]

A simple, yet especially effective, reaction.

That suuuucks.

...well, he's been usurped, and the path to peace is much more attainable now.

... admittedly, there is a great amount of morbidity in my life. Aside from political mingling, I do not know much about small talk.

[like. we're friends right?]
Sorry to poke at any sort spots, though.
no subject
No, no, you did nothing of the sort. But perhaps I just do not have a proper frame of reference for "friendship".
