My parents made a huge mistake.

What sort of mistake, if I may ask?

[lucy_inthe_sky]

Picking this planet to colonize.

[hollow_man]

~Oh?~

[lucy_inthe_sky]

Have you seen the news? This planet's a mess.

[hollow_man]

~This is news? It's been a mess pretty much always, sunshine.~

[lucy_inthe_sky]

So why would they pick this stupid planet?

[hollow_man]

~Well. Maybe they're not that bright?~

[lucy_inthe_sky]

And evil. So maybe there's that.

since, you know, only fake!jono ever showed up in runaways...

[hollow_man]

~Uh. Yer folks are evil? Like for real?~

I loved that part tbh

[lucy_inthe_sky]

Supervillains.

such a snark even when it's an imposter

[hollow_man]

~Ohhh.

Should I be, you know, concerned?~

It was a legit good imposter!

[lucy_inthe_sky]

No. They're dead.

[hollow_man]

~I'd say I'm sorry but you don't seem very bothered.

Presumably I don't have to worry about you kicking off, yeah?~

[lucy_inthe_sky]

Well they were evil.

[hollow_man]

~Yeah, but some people still love their folks regardless.

So yer an alien.~

[lucy_inthe_sky]

...I don't. I don't miss them. [She does]

Yeah... Technically. I was born here though.

[hollow_man]

~I wouldn't judge you if you did.

Oh, well. Basically an earthling, then.~

[lucy_inthe_sky]

...You wouldn't?

But not a human.

[hollow_man]

~No. It's not like it's some terrible, unthinkable thing.

Yeah, but who is?~

[lucy_inthe_sky]

But they were evil supervillains. They killed someone. Lots of people.

Well... six billion people... give or take some inhumans and mutants.

[hollow_man]

~Yeah. That doesn't make them good people, but they were yer family.

Okay, point taken.~

[lucy_inthe_sky]

My parents were bad people. ...I don't miss them.

There are other planets out there... they could have picked one that wasn't screwed up at least

[hollow_man]

~Awright.

They're probably all screwed up in different ways. ...you ever see Star Trek? I bet it's like that, where places are mostly like earth in some way or another.~

[colonelcannibal]

I'd be skeptical, but I'm not quite normal myself. Also you're glowing. *He chuckles.* Why was it such a bad idea?

[lucy_inthe_sky]

You mean that old show with the bad special effects? No. I wasn't allowed to watch bad TV.
