[quote=@Etcetera] So he took their young daughter Technology Demonstration and infant "son" and placed them in stasis until the effect wore off or they had stayed in stasis for too long to not be injured. He couldn't talk to them without risking triggering the effect, so when they woke up about 6000 years ago, it looked from their perspective like Second had just abandoned them. But he did look out for them; he put their stasis chambers on a planet full of friendship, where they could be happy even on their own without him or Star. Similarly, The Hero, who had been retitled The Legend after the Great War, took to raising the newborn Legend and Luke while I left to avoid causing them any pain. *Says nothing, but takes a breath* I'm afraid I haven't been a very good mother to Luke or Legend. [/quote] Waitwaitwait....what do you mean “son”? What is wrong with Uncle Data? And don’t you think the effect wore off?
