[ Lexa would be more cautious if anyone else was around. This is also not how she usually does things, but she is trying. She's seen Clarke, Bellamy, and Murphy talk to others. They do it very easily. She speaks rarely or when she does it is straightforward. She finds this is acceptable. She releases some of the tension in herself, although the way she sits is still stiff and formal. She listens to Naomi closely, her full attention on her, which can be intimidating from someone who is on the intense side. And a little unblinking. It is unintentional. ]

You came from the sky. My partner came from the sky. She never knew green until she landed.

[ Clarke and Lexa were star-crossed lovers in a way. One deeply tied to the land, one to the sky, leaders of a people who wanted to war with one another no matter how hard they tried to stop it. Partner is the word Lexa has chosen to use because she does not like girlfriend, lover apparently is out of date, and they are not joined in ceremony. The question makes her pause and consider. ]

I have duties here in this city that keep me busy, I don't leave often. But perhaps. The greenery is growing. There are more animals. This city is changing, becoming more like mine.

[ Polis was a strange mix of almost-city and wilderness, after all. A former spaceship that became a shrine. ]

What is space like?
