<color=green>"Well there's billions of them passing through us each second. And they all come from the sun. I don't always focus on them because it would obscure my vision. It just matters on what we want to concentrate on. So I've practiced to concentrate on the neutrinos that come from beta decay on radioactive sources, and treat the fairies from the sun as background that I can ignore. And from those two skills, I've been able to tone down the number of fairies I can see at a time. Right now I'm only concentrating on a few hundred at a time. Same thing goes for EMily. If she wants to concentrate on radio waves instead of visible light, then that's what she does."
"That's rather convenient then." Sophia smiled. "So do they just look like little shiny puff balls, or something else? Surely you don't mean actual fae?" Sophia eventually asked. "About a foot tall, butterfly wings, antenna, humanoid but also bug like?"
<color=green>"They look like humans, but also tiny. I always see them as a few centimeters in length, with large dragonfly-like wings and shine brightly. The electron neutrinos are short and look like children. The muon neutrinos look like young adults. And the tau neutrinos are like the mature adults."
OOC: Gonna get off here in a sec.

Seras nodded, but she looked clearly uncertain. She began trying to think about how best to explain what happened to her.
Sophia gave Winona a look like she didn't quite believe her, and yet had no way to disagree with her on it either. Vision was one of those things she had to always just assume the other was right about, so she just went along with it. "Um... hi there, everyone?" Sophia slowly said, giving a small hesitant wave to the otherwise invisible watchers, her tail twitching every so often as she looked around.
EMily didn't like her stubborn attitude at all, so she left the matter alone.
"Very well then. I'll leave you alone. But I would like it if you would come out soon and get some fresh air once we land." And EMily left the room.

<color=green>"Here, let me help you see them." She materialized her hammers in front of her, and placed the ends of their heads upwards. The hammers were quite large with their heads about 1/4 as voluminous as an oil drum. One hammer had the letters "Z0" printed on a slightly larger spiked hammer that was black, and "W±" on the other grey hammer. Her eyes glowed a faint green, but a third eye appeared in the center just above the two physical eyes.
<color=green>"I'm sending the information I'm seeing into the hammers so they can project it as a hologram." And soon enough hundreds upon hundreds of streaks were seen flying through the kitchen like sunshine. If Sophia were to watch carefully enough, she could see the traces of the glowing wings of the fairies that also seemed to spin and corkscrew.
<color=green>"There we have it. We are seeing one 10 millionth of the neutrinos that are passing through the ship. They say that only a lightyear of lead is able to significantly stop the paths of these mischievous particles. And one lightyear is 9.5 trillion kilometers."

Needless to say, Sophia was a bit floored when she saw all the hologram neutrinos appearing. "Woah." She managed to squeek out as she looked around, eventually trying to raise a hand to poke at one of the nearer ones to her.
"That... sounds like a lot of pencils you'd need to make something like that."
"That... sounds like a lot of pencils you'd need to make something like that."
She chuckled.
<color=green>"I know right?" She turned off the hologram, and the third eye along with the hammers dematerialized. When she heard that Sophia probably uses lead metal for pencil lead, she had to make a comment. <color=green>"Oh no, pencils use graphite, which is also called 'lead'. They used to have the metal lead to write, but then people started to get sick from the heavy metal poisoning. That's the metal I'm referring to. Lead is one of the densest heaviest metals you can find."

"Oh." Sophia said as she thought about what that meant. "That does make sense I guess... I always just assumed it was the same thing or whatever." She thought out loud, scratching her cheek slightly. So there really isn't anybody from your universe that's like myself, or I guess Victoria then? She asked, feeling like the answer was yes, but thought she'd ask anyways. "You know, the tail and ears and mask and stuff?"
She shrugged.
<color=green>"Not really. There aren't any people that are half human, half other species. We just have humans, whales, dolphins and a whole lot of other animals, plants, fungi, bacteria, and other single celled organisms on our planet. And all the extraterrestrials we've seen bare little to no resemblance to a human. No dragons, no real fairies, no ghosts or phantoms, no mystical spirits, no undead zombies or skeletons, and no minotaurs. But I don't really mind it so much because our world is already filled with a vast population of beautiful and amazing things."
And she made a genuine smile that expressed her love for her world.
OOC: Gonna get lunch.

"Alright." Sophia nodded slowly as she listened, not knowing what some of the things Winona listed, but that was alright. "It's kind of sad to think in a way that there isn't people like me over there, but I guess not all universes you visit will be the exact same. 2/3 universes is pretty good, I guess though." She said with a shrug, smiling a little to see Winona so infectiously cheerful.
