*We round a corner, and some very modest looking “modern” apartment buildings with outdoor entryways reveal themselves*
Those are very modest living spaces, compared to a lot of the IA. Might even be accurate to call them primitive.

@Audacious

I don’t think it looks that bad. What are the biggest differences?

@Nimda

These are smaller. Nowhere near as… Techy? I’ve seen some high tech worlds and how the housing there looks and these are nowhere close. And both are very different from homes where I’m from so I’m not as good at describing as others might be.

@Audacious

I grew up around tech. Having more of it isn’t really a requirement for me.

@Nimda

And it’s not like there’s a lack of it. You’re just not living in an alloy-lined space filled to the brim on all fronts with hyper advanced stuff. It really is just more modest.

@Audacious

That’s fine with me. I’m sick of everything being automated, honestly.

Perfect. But it’s not like that sort of thing is out of the realm of possibility for the relatively near future. This place will grow fast, real fast.

<Snipped quote by Dark Cloud>

Fair. In that case, let's rip them apart.

@Shadow Dragon

<Snipped quote by Shadow Dragon>

Let's.

@Audacious

Prime real estate?

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

Prime real estate?

@Nimda

Sure is. Especially for people like you.

[Galvanize]

<Snipped quote by Galvanize>

Why you decided to move out.

@Nimda

Oh! Yeah, I honestly don’t really remember what the real reason was.

Those look nice.

@Galvanize

*Raises an eyebrow*
They do. It's helped by the surrounding scenery.

@Source

What the devil is going o-on?!

[Nimda]

<Snipped quote by Nimda>

Sure is. Especially for people like you.

@Audacious

Do you think it’ll still be a good place to live after that?

<Snipped quote by Nimda>

Oh! Yeah, I honestly don’t really remember what the real reason was.

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

Those look nice.

@Galvanize

Just on a whim?

*The ground splits open below you, revealing a bubbling mass of magma, tinged with a purple light*

@Nimda

I don't think anywhere in the IA, that I know, is or has become a bad place to live... Well, "anywhere" meaning there's no bad world to choose. Worlds are so big that they all have upsides. There can be bad neighborhoods.

*In a blink of light I disappear, reappearing several feet in the air.*

I haven't seen something akin to this in centuries, Vin get off the ground!

@Audacious

Sure. I just mean so much tech that it’s more like an experiment than it is a home.

*He floats in the air, and looks down*

Is that an entrance, or a failed threat?

[Audacious]

@Nimda

I wouldn't say that's ever the case. More like you're living in a sci-fi movie of sorts.
