You've reached Poe Dameron. I'm off flying something or trying not to get killed, so go ahead and leave a message and I'll get back to you eventually.

I hope you aren't being sarcastic, for your own sake.

I initially started with one called "I, Robot." I decided to branch out from there. It only takes me an hour at most to finish a book less than 500 pages, if it's a digital file.

[flightforfreedom]

I am never sarcastic I don't know what you're talking about

I, Robot? That-- sounds like something right up your alley, yeah. I mean, it makes sense that you'd read I guess I just never thought about it. So what are these about

[reexamined]

I detect a one hundred percent chance you are being cheeky with me.

It's a collection of stories about robot sentience, from the perspective of an Earth that didn't even have robots. It's interesting, if a little unsettling in it's predictions.

Frankenstein is about a scientist attempting to create life by assembling a creature from body parts of the deceased. Gulliver's Travels is about a man who travels to different lands, and he is physically alien to the natives in terms of size and appearance. Both are metaphors about being alienated in a society for different reasons, but overall, being feared.

I thought they would be interesting to help keep your thoughts elsewhere.

[flightforfreedom]

I would never

[There's a pause as he reads the descriptions, and a look that is both thankful and warm spreads over his face. If tired. The tv viewing public likely have no idea what they are even seeing.]

so they're kind of about you, then

[reexamined]

Oh.

That

was not my intent with my recommendations.

I had read them because they sounded interesting.

[Interesting, to him, because they were relatable to a degree, yes. Frankenstein maybe a little more so than Gulliver, but.]

I can find others to send you instead.

[flightforfreedom]

No. These are good.

they'll be distracting and then you can tell me what you liked about them, later.

at the very least, it means I'll get to know you better, right?

[reexamined]

I would like to discuss them with you as well.

And... yes, I suppose at the very least, you would know what kind of books I've been reading. If you have any books you like here, I would be interested in knowing which ones.

[flightforfreedom]

i haven't finished a book since i was in the academy

there's some music here i like, though.

[reexamined]

Is it the same music they play in Zozzled?

[flightforfreedom]

No, no. I mean - I like that stuff, yeah, to dance to.

but no, i mean music that actually

hm

it's the kind of stuff i would listen to after a mission and i just needed to unwind and relax by myself

well and bb8 but you know what i mean

[reexamined]

I see.

Yes, I would like to hear that.

[flightforfreedom]

alright. I'll make you a playlist.

[reexamined]

Isn't it called a 'mixtape'?

[This is what happens when he learns about music from Veronica.]

[flightforfreedom]

mixtape? how does that make any sense?

[What is "tape"?]

[reexamined]

I don't know. It's what Veronica calls it. Putting music by various artists together into one collection is a mixtape.

[flightforfreedom]

weird. alright, then, well, i'll make you a 'mixtape'

and kaytoo?

thanks
