[feelybug]

It is a lot to learn I think

also I am Mantis.

[supersweet]

Nice to meet you, Mantis.

Are you an alien?

[feelybug]

I think I am definitely an alien here

I was raised on the planet Ego

[supersweet]

That sounds like a terrible name for a planet.

[feelybug]

It was a very beautiful planet

It was also a very terrible planet. And very lonely.

Where do you come from?

[supersweet]

How is a planet lonely?

I come from Earth.

[ And Krypton. ]

[feelybug]

He was not a very populous planet

[And also...a tad evil. Nevertheless, Mantis is all too familiar with being raised on a non-native planet]

I have a friend who is from Earth. I hear it is a good planet! I enjoy Earth’s music!

[supersweet]

Earth has pretty good music, it's true. We have good food too.

"He"?

[feelybug]

I am only just learning of all the many foods there are to taste!

The planet was also my master. He was not always very nice.

[Therefore he is now a 'was' and Mantis is more an orphan than ever before.]

[supersweet]

Is that possible?

Did you talk to him?

[feelybug]

I talked to him some days. He did not like to be bothered with many questions.

He was very powerful.

[supersweet]

Wow. I didn't know you could do that.

It'd be nice to talk to Krypton.

[ Which . . . Jon sort of did. But that was a harrowing encounter. ]

[feelybug]

I do not think you can do that with most planets. Ego was a celestial. He made himself a planet, and a person.

[Many people, in some senses. Mantis had seen him take so many different forms.]

Was Krypton a nice planet?

[supersweet]

Maybe? I didn't know it very well.

[feelybug]

I understand.

I do not even know the name of the planet of my birth.

[supersweet]

Oh. Wow.

I'm sorry. That's really tough.

But Earth is super nice. Maybe that can be your new home?

[feelybug]

I did not think of that before.

Do you think they would let me?

[supersweet]

My Earth has lots of aliens. I'm sure they won't mind.
