"Yes... 'Normal races'. When did that become a thing...?" Jo mutters, Jovin not feeling that it was the best of ideas to create a race for such a thing, but keeps quite still, eyes narrowing slightly.
"That would be good, yes." "Just promise us you won't break in the bed as soon as we get there" the twins shudder, Jovin and Jo looking afronted as they gather their things. "H-Hey!" "We aren't that bad..." Thomas just looks interested. "Be nice to have a new place..."

Samm isnt understanding jo and jovins grievances and give them a quiet look because of it. But then they were all distracted by the kids talking and stuff.
Samm grins, "I dont promise those kind of things~"
Brennan sighs, "really mom?"
"Just giving you guys a hard time." chuckles some.

Cecil just gives a hearty chuckle at the banter.
"Most of the SD's specifics is higher level clearance intel. Their design is a closely guarded secret you see. We have had plenty of androids built in the past, but the SD is a completely organic being. Its the only one of it's kind and we've... had to pass certain laws to protect it as well as make sure it is responsible for it's own actions..."
The director sighs and runs a hand through his beard.
"Dr. Grey deserted from Trinity Corp in a rather... abrupt and destructive... murderous way about 20 some odd years ago. She stole a bunch of her own research and a ship. Poor Fluffy was nearly sentenced to death in place of her estranged 'mother'. But thankfully law passed that stated the created being was no responsible for the actions of it's creator. It was a pretty bold but needed move in the synthetic rights movement the androids were hosting during that time. Androids became civilians as well as synthetic creatures. Fluffy is by far the brightest, most talented creature I've ever met. And thats not just because she was built like that. No no... thats something she developed all her own."
A hover lift comes by and stops in front of the Director.
He sits down on the couch like seat in it's trailer and pats the other seats.

"...Of course." Jovin sighs, patting Samm's back.. "...At least you did good on the right's movements for androids"
The twins just blink at that, tilting there head, Jo sighing as well as they sit on down, followed by Jovin and thomas. "Sounds like you are quite found of her." Jo states. "And it seems that we have alot to learn, don't we, Sis?" "Of course we do, Sis."

"yes...quite fond." she smiles a little but shrugs some sitting down as well. Brennan flopped on soon after. "And the politics..at least...sound diligent."
quietly, she looked over the floating couch thing, muttering a "this is neat.."
Brennan would notice how thoughtfl and intrigued his mother was acting, if he wasn't so dang excited and distracted.

The trolly takes the group to an elevator at the back of the hangar and proceeds downwards into the heart of the vessel. The elevator opens up to a clear window that overlooks the Geo-Home. A large, ecosystem that looks like if you just took a chunk of a planet and stuck it inside of a space ship.
"The Geo-home is large enough to cover about 4 Towns worth of land. It is very large to accommodate the large number of passengers that are on the ship. We have our own little home away from home. Atmosphere completely breathable, and to make sure we are on our toes we also change the weather every so often as well as the seasons."
The elevator begins reaching down towards the ground level after a minute or so.

Jovin jaw drops as he takes in the sight, jo letting put a low impressed whistle.
"Looks like just a planet but on a ship" "its certianitly impressive looking but I don't see the big deal-the actual ship looked more impressive." The twins star, even as they look around, curious and slightly impressed.
"...I think the thing is that the logistics for such a place must be impressive. After all this is all artificial" Thomas muses, the twins nodding, all three ready to burst out of the elevator

"Artificial? they're real trees right?" brennan asked, somewhat confused.
Samm looks over the area, smiling some. But more intently, she's listening to everyone. The explanation is nice. But she glaced over at Thomas with his comments and smiles. "Maybe you can learn all about it here, thomas~"

"I would like that, and I meant more that it's like a garden but... bigger" Thomas explains.

"Oh the plant life here is very much real. We've imported all the soil, trees, and plants from earth. We just cultivated it and let it over grow, then we settled in the towns. The spaceship largely used to be an outworlder spacecraft that we re-purposed with all the left over junk from earth. Recycling has been much easier with the invention of the M2."
The lift gets to 'ground level' and the trolly hovers out. It proceeds to a 'Check Point' station where the Director flashes his badge to the guards posted and allows them through. The trolly stops by a platform where the director steps off onto it. Next to the platform is a large, white, pristine looking train.
"And here is the bullet train that runs through the heart of it. It'll typically take you through the centers of all the towns. So if you ever need to make the trip, the train is your best bet. Sure, we've developed teleportation technology but theres something about a train ride with passengers that gives the place a little more life and connection. Of course, the teleportation is still an option that is available."

Samm nods as THE DIRECTOR (:P) keeps talking and explaining things.
"Mom? what's a bullet train" brennan asked, to whcih samm smiles. "well...a train is like a long convoy of carriages and horses....but run on power of some sort and is faster. I'll show you a picture sometime. But a bullet train is...faster than a normal train."
"so...3 times as fast as a horse?"
Samm laughs a little "much faster."

Thomas chuckles, crossing his arms, shirt shifting a bit again "See? Like a garden..." He trails off when he sees the train. "That... looks fast... and looks even faster then that... Can't wait to ride it. Brennan, you?"
Jovin chuckles, nodding. "M2? Whats that?" Jo then adds in "And don't blame ya, sometimes you want to be able to take a nap or read before you get to where ya going."
The twins nods "What is the check point for?" "It seems peaceful here" "And won't something moving that fast be bumpy? "Sounds less then smooth."

The old man gives another jolly laugh.
"So many questions today! But I don't blame you. Don't worry, we've got many resources available for learning."
The train doors open up and the director steps aboard.
"Lets get you home, settle in, explore the town a bit. I'll be getting back to work, bit I'm always a call away."

Samm smiled, feeling at ease seeing her old friend be so jolly. When the doors opened up, she floated aboard. "You must love your work...or life here...you sound actually happy for once...and not the quiet little smiles that I'm used to."
Brennan stepson the normal way, eyeing his mothers laziness for a bit knowing for a fact that it was an act of pure laziness. "Im excited....a new place with new technologies, and new people, races even!"

Jovin nods, following after samm,looking around the train, Jo floating on board quickly, followed by His kids.
"Yeah... Same here" Thomas replies with a small smile, the twins nodding as well.
