A question. [Cloud says it like it's punctuated with "for you strange people."]

If you don't have a Lifestream keeping your Planet alive, what's holding it together?

A "company"? [He tilts his head curiously. He has no clue what that means.]

You don't know what a company is?

[He shakes his head.] Is it like a laboratory?

[UGH BUZZWORD]

Sometimes. Companies are usually a lot bigger, and do a lot of different things and have a lot of people in them.

[Bigger than a big laboratory? Lambda doesn't like the sound of that.]

But the company was shut down? By who?

[Some really awesome people.]

People who were sick of being taken advantage of.

... Your people stood up for themselves and their world.

I guess that's a good way to put it. [A romantic way to put it. Makes it sound a lot less selfish than it really was.]

[If Lambda knew the full story, he probably wouldn't have put it that way either. He likes Cloud's version of the story, though. It makes him... Happy. That's why he'll try to smile. It's going to come out looking very awkward on him, but it's a smile nonetheless.]

I see.
