There's something I've been thinking about over the past few months of being here: the portal appears to have a distinctly Human bias. I'm Human myself but I come from a universe with hundreds, if not thousands of other sapient species, yet the three of us who are here from that universe are all Humans. What's more is that no one else I've talked to here has ever encountered or even heard of the other people we share our galaxy with, no more than I'd known of Asgardians or Elves or the Prawn before I arrived. On the other hand, despite vast other differences in our realities here, most people seem to know about Humans, which seems strange to me. Surely there must be an infinite number of universes out there without Humans, right? So why are there no representatives of those worlds? Or simply more representatives of a wider variety of peoples?

Now, if this was one of the historical portals built by the inhabitants of the planet we orbit, I wouldn't think as much of it - perhaps they'd specifically target realities that were closest to their own. But if this one is supposedly a natural occurrence, then why this pattern of selection?

Any thoughts on this?

[Because surely, she can't be the only one thinking about it.]

Art 😍😍😍

[dancingmd]

I suppose what they say is true, that art is in the eye of the beholder.

[spellslots]

I'm not even into ladies and that's still some of the sexiest shit I've ever seen

[dancingmd]

No comment on that front.

[spellslots]

You're such a spoilsport, darling. I'm trying to get hot goss

[dancingmd]

Sorry to disappoint 😇

[spellslots]

I doubt your sincerity

[dancingmd]

Why, Taako, I'm hurt!

[spellslots]

Don't play coy with me, I invented coy

But I see why Luce likes you

[dancingmd]

I'm rather fond of her too.

[More than fond, really, far more, but she doesn't want to get too mushy on him.]

[spellslots]

There's the hot goss I was looking for

[dancingmd]

It's hardly news!

[spellslots]

Doesn't mean I can't report that shit back to Lux anyway

[For someone who's literally not talking to Lucretia right now, he does a good job of sounding fond.]

[dancingmd]

[spellslots]

I'm hanging up on you now

[This isn't a phone conversation that's not how that works!!!]

[dancingmd]

I am only teasing, Taako.

[spellslots]

Oh, I know, I just feel like we kinda reached a natural end point of the conversation here but I wasn't just gonna stop responding

[He's very honest sometimes.]

[dancingmd]

Very considerate of you!

Well, and n that case, thank you for indulging my questions - I definitely learned some new things to think about It!
