Ulla sighs. "Mixed species offspring aren't supposed to be
possible, so I always thought the rumors were nothing more than
that. Sildroher can't breed with humans. But my human birth mother's
magic was enough to change that. She gave me to my father without a
backward glance when I was born with gills and a tail."
"Oh, wow, yeah. That- that sounds particularly tough. I'm sorry. A lot of species in the galaxy in my world share enough DNA in common that hybrids don't usually require outside intervention to create, but there's been a few cases where in-vitro fertilization has proven necessary and-" She pauses. "Um, sorry. Not important. The point is, that's rough."
Ulla shrugs. "I've left all of that behind now. I'm not going back to my
world when I leave the Barge. And the people I've found found here are
preferable."
"There are some pretty great people here." Her mind goes first to Lucy, but not just - her boys in Cybernetics, Fives, Angel, Kadaj and Yazoo, Thrawn, John, Vaggie... and many, many more besides. "I'd love to visit some of their homes, some day. But I can't imagine not going back home eventually. It's- I'm glad I'm lucky enough to have people I care about and a purpose there. And I'm glad people here can find a home like that, too, no matter what universe they came from."
