If I Was Ever In A Space Ship Id Pay People To Mutilate The Thing. Because Chances Would Be I Wouldnt Be In There Of My Own Accord.

 

hey! don't disrespect starships. they have big guns and can travel faster than light. you should be glad if you ever get your hands on one.

 

They Also Have Slavery Tentacles.
I Mean You Do You, But Fuck No.

 

uuum, what? Is this another misunderstanding with your, mind-insect-things again? My kind of ships you can make out of any kind of metal.

Spoiler: example

this my universe's type of ship.

what does yours look like?

 

Not Too Dissimilar.
The Problem Is Not The Ship Itself. Its The Navigation System. Or, You Know, The Battery. Depending on What Quality Of Psionic You Wire Into Your System.
Look I Know For A Fact That FTL Travel Just Doesnt Work Efficiently Without Some Psionics Hanging Limply In A Mess Of Tentacles.

 

Well, uh. I dunno, maybe your species didn't develop past that because...

Your empress is terrible and figured she didn't need to?

 

Im Pretty Sure Silicone Based Tech Is Shit And Biotech Is Superior But Okay.
The Whole Intergalactic Empire Thing Wasnt Just Given To The Condesce With A Neat Little Bow.

 

Biotech doesn't have to involve people, though. If you guys are so good at biotech, couldn't you grow non-sapient psionic blobs or whatever?

 

... But Why Would You. Yellows Are Hatched By The Thousands Each Generation.
Just Because I Dont Want To Do It And Dont Wish Anyone I Know This Fate Doesnt Mean Its Not Technically The Most Efficient usage Of Ressources.

 

Because people aren't just resources.

Well, they shouldn't just be. And it's not that efficient because you're good for other stuff, like... you're brilliant!

...anyway, I'm just pointing out that it's not actually as necessary as you're probably taught. And you don't have to, like, agree.

 

We don't wire anybody into our system. It is kind of like a boat or a plane. we have a pilot and a co-pilot. we do have a navigation system, but it is more of like a computer holographic map. but we also use crystals to power our lightspeed.

 

Oh! Like your swords.

 

Okay.
A Lot Of Very Successful Conquerors Disagree On The "People Arent Resources" Thing.
But Im Not Going To Argue.

Have You Tried Having More Efficient Computers Running On Brains? Because Neural Systems Are Way Better At Computing Than Anorganic Tech.

 

pretty much yeah. we use crystals for everything. but they are different. our lightsaber crystals can last forever, but our lightspeed and cloaking crystals are limited and can be destroyed or be extinguished when we use them too often.

no we havent. we havent found out a way to do that yet. sure we can make amazing weapons that can blow up planets and robots that can morph into anything, but i highly doubt anyone would want their head jacked into a computer.

 

W...what happens if they break while you're in lightspeed?

 

well then, we get tossed out of lightspeed between our starting area to our destination, and replace the crystals. it's pretty simple. it's kind of like changing a battery in a remote.

 

What if you hit something, though?

 

well, 1/10 that happens. but we have different protocols for those situations. If we hit a small rock, we repair the ship, but if is an object bigger than our ship, we pray that we don't die.

 

Not really.

But it's amusing that he can't hurt me -- or anyone else I care about -- here.

 

GET LOST.

When you don't have a physical body--and here you do not--there is absolutely no-one in the multiverse who's better at chasing you off than me. And you know it. You can't even complain about it, because you're the one who made me so good at dealing with you, and I paid you back by putting an adamantium plate in his skull.

And Stanley's a close second.

And we both happen to be here. So git! GO HOME, where your jokes are as flat as you are!
