I wouldn't have heard of anything. My planet was in the Despondos galaxy alone; I only saw stars for the first time a year and a half ago, something like that.

[ All the time runs together, and for a second she actually tries to remember, then waves it off. ]

Space travel is super new, but my friends and I are gonna explore and see if any other places need me. Need us. [ She corrects herself and looks up at the Doctor with a small smile. ] Magic and tech work together on Etheria, but tech is more accessible.

[ Circling the console, she takes in the differences of their ships, and it's way different. ]

No windows or pilot chair? How do you see where you're going?

[ Well, that's...a new one for him. Though, in that alternate reality when all of time and space was collapsing, the stars had similarly disappeared. Had something like that happened with her planet?

He does laugh a little under his breath at the question, though. ]

I always know where I'm going and I always end up precisely where I mean to. With a detour now and again.

[ Oh, yes, that's definitely completely accurate. ]

[ Adora eyes him, trying to understand what that even means. She thinks he means it doesn't matter where he lands, that's where he wanted to be. Honestly, that sounds exactly like what she wanted to do after Etheria was rebuilt. ]

I used to live in a ship, but it was grounded. It's where I grew up, but I never thought I'd actually get to leave Etheria in one. The first time was terrifying, things were literally falling apart, and none of us had ever flown a spaceship before, obviously.

[ She's talking quickly, uses her hands a lot, and doesn't seem at all bothered by how much she's saying. Her energy is somewhat similar to the Doctor's; she doesn't get the sense that he's annoyed by her at all. ]

[ On the contrary, he's absolutely delighted by her, especially given that she's familiar with a ship and the universe. Though, he wonders just what sort of place it was that she hails from, given the curious things she's said. ]

And you managed it all the same, well done! I do that a lot myself — learn as I go.

[ There's definitely pride in his voice as they speak of it. ]

Oh, well, I had a friend wth me. Two, Bow and Entrapta. They knew what to do to fix her up, I just do the flying, and DARLA only responds to me when we're in the air.

[ When they aren't in motion, Entrapta can also talk with DARLA, and Adora's pretty sure they flirt when she isn't around. As much as a ship can flirt. Stopping to take a breath, she pokes her head down a hallway. ]

Is there more? How long did it take you to learn how to fly the TARDIS?

[thedreamer]

DARLA — love that name!

[ He commits the names of her friends to memory as well. They're important, obviously, they're family. He knows that feeling all too well himself. ]

There is more, so much more than you can possibly comprehend, but that will take me a bit of time. Suppose I have plenty of it here, so I've heard. As for flying her — oh, that was easy. Hardly any time at all. We took to each other instantly!

[ ...except not. He doesn't really fly but he's convinced himself that he does. ]
