[Ken's situated in the library, books strewn out around him, but currently they're pushed to the side, his attention on the device, expression thoughtful.]
Rapunzel-san mentioned stars the other day. I decided to tell some stories from my home world about them, along with the names I recall, and look through the library for other stories and names.
However, it made me realize some of us may be from the same world, but you would still know stories and legends of the stars I don't. And there are other people from other worlds that would have completely different stars, and different stories.
Would you please share your stories of stars from home with us?
[He's expecting someone (three someones at different times), but feel free to answer in person, run across him in the library by chance, bug him about the books, anything.]

Action; -- :D That works for me.
Well...we have lanterns, and...well we don't have television, or radio, or devices like the communicator...it's so weird, all these things here.
[Her eyes widen at the charts, grinning.]
Oh, wow....
Action;
So you wouldn't know what a computer is? The device just acts like a smaller type of computer.
Using the charts, you can compare them with your illustrations and see which correspond. See, this cluster of stars here, looks a little like this one on the chart, doesn't? [He points to the larger stars, the easier to see ones, first, then compares them to a similar set on the chart.]
Action;
They do!
[She grins, laughing.]
So we just need to see what the chart says are the official constellations, and compare them with what I saw...
Action;
The basics are that you can store information on them. And it's done by electronic impulses. So the guide is stored on a hard-drive somewhere, like putting an outfit in a closet. And you can go look it up whenever you want and retrieve it. [But it's more complicated than that. And she probably already understand that basic portion of it.]
And yes, we do. Maybe...maybe the skies are the same where you are and where I'm from after all. These are the star charts from the world I call home.
Re: Action;
[She nods, listening. She sort of understands it, and it makes a lot more sense when he explains it.]
They're really nice...maybe some things are universal, I guess...
Action;
[He's never had to explain so much to someone else before and feels a couple of his other...friends would be better suited for it. He would be relieved to know he's not doing too poorly at it.]
Maybe.... Or maybe different stars look the same. It's hard to say. But for now, you can use these charts to correspond them. I think one of these books has the Greek myths for stories of each constellation, too.
Action;
[She smiles at him.]
Really? Oh, I'd love to look at the myths...the charts do look similar...if they're different, they're in the same general positions.
Action;
[He smiles back - it's hard not to since he smile is so bright.]
The myths are in this book [barely lays his hand on it to show which book he means] and there have been some kind people to share their own stories on the network, as well.
Action;
[She laughs, and puts her hand on the book of myths, brushing against his slightly.]
I should make my own stories up for the constellations I made.
Action;
[He barely notices, but does blush a little and adjust his hand so she can look.]
You should. Maybe this can be inspirational?
Action;
[She nods and smiles more.]
Exactly!
Action;
Maybe it's worth asking about?
