“On the orbit” 💫 1/? A boy's journey to pursue an artificial planet.
Artificial planets prefer quiet soil. As a factor, they grow in the "voice" of the artificial planet grower. One theory is that they memorize the sounds they resonate with and leave them inside. Their "preferences" seem to depend on the growers who grow them. Oh, yes. Just like this place... Ahh, What a eccentric visitor!

“On the orbit” 💫 2/? A boy's journey to pursue an artificial planet.
Well..., As the name implies, an "artificial planet" is an artificially created “planet.” In other words, it is not just a floating rocks, it orbits very slowly around its parent planet. In that sense, it would be easier to understand by saying “satellite” rather than “planet”. However, We intentionally call it "planet", in our original languages, they are called “惑星” or “遊星”. And it means a wandering star.

“On the orbit” 💫 3/? A boy's journey to pursue an artificial planet.
Managing the orbits of artificial planets is one of the important tasks of artificial planet growers, and intricately calculated orbital periods are a confidential matter that can be communicated only to their guild. For example, "Planetary Railway" that you visited had a most complicated structure in which trains were goes in orbits of multiple artificial planets, and rendezvous. Of course, passengers at the time would have had a hard time because the planet that would be the station was also slowly orbiting. But, many of the artificial planets that still exist today are many years old, so most of them are sleeping... well, well, You too?
※The rendezvous mentioned here is a Space rendezvous :)

“On the orbit” 💫 4/? A boy's journey to pursue an artificial planet.
When I woke up in the morning, he wasn't there already. I think artificial planet growers may also be wanderers who orbit like planets. An "artificial planet", it's supernatural presence attracts me strongly. ...I may meet him again somewhere “on the orbit”. Only they know for sure things? But, The only thing that I can be said is that the voices of artificial planet growers echo comfortably in my ears, moreover the story is very long and makes me get sleepy on the way. I hope he's not angry.

“On the orbit” 💫 5/? A memorandum about artificial planets and Volucite
[knock Knock. (buzz-) There is a message for the artificial planet grower Peter from Forked tree.] The steam falcon is highly confidential and has long been used as a means of communication between artificial planets. "What? From the Forked tree twins? ... I hope it's not a troublesome request again." (mutters & sigh) Originally, it is a device that records and delivers messages by voice, but it seems that Forked tree is not good at voice recording because "Both sides speak at the same time"...
... Be wary that some activity related to Volucite has been detected again in Glimmerbrook ...
Glimmerbrook? Volucite? Maybe it's Aey's doing... I hurriedly sent the information she was asking for. Volucite attracts all "troublesome", so with that warning...

“On the orbit” 💫 6/? A memorandum about artificial planets and Volucite
Dear Aey
Hello, How is everything?(I'm sure you're fine.) Thank you for your email. I was surprised to know that you were still riding that antique!
The link between Volucite and the "Seeds" of artificial planets is unclear. There may be some relevance because both have the same floating qualities. The history of artificial planets is old, and I think that the floating technology powered by Volucite is newer than that of artificial planets. This is just an example, there may have been a branch of technology between a guild of artificial planet growers who value resonance and a guild that treats Volucite as a mere power resource. My guess is that they couldn't agree with each other's ideas and were relentlessly working on the principles of each guild. Both of them are secretive, so I'm sorry I don't know much about the science and technology related to Volucite. But both of these technologies now seem to be declining and becoming a urban legend. I also researched information about Volucite in several places in Glimmerbrook. Have you ever readed "LAPUTA"? According to the book, The Laputans, who had the only technology in the world to mine and crystallize Volucites from bedrock, boasted advanced science and technology using the huge crystals of Volucites, and therefore they. Therefore, the empire has fallen due to its dependence on Volucite and its danger. (I suspect this story is a little exaggerated by them.) Volsite is a powerful rarest ore, but mining is extremely dangerous. There will be some bad guys who aim for that power. Fortunately, it doesn't seem like you're rumored at the bar yet. (But my curious acquaintance has already get wind of it!) Anyway, I know you're a skilled ore hunter, but be careful with how you handle Volucite.
Best wishes, Peter.

Special Thanks: Aey Emm by @honeyteasims!💖 Thank you so much for inviting me to the world of storytelling again. So..., You don't regret that I really posted this long letter, right?😂 / And, Thank you to all amazing CC creators!
⛏The original “LAPUTA” is an animated movie by Studio Ghibli, and Volsite is the ore that appears in that story. Also called 飛行石 or Levitation Stone. Please forgive me to use it in my delusions.📚
“On the orbit” 💫 7/? The trouble of an artificial planet grower
"... She is exploring the reaction of the Volucite-like ore rediscovered in Glimmerbrook. She is a very reliable person ..." "OK. Tell my message to the forked tree. Oh, and then, Postscript." "You don't have to do anything about it! That’s all." Phew, this should give me peace of mind... Anyway, I hope their curiosity shifts to something else ... (A few days later...) [knock Knock. (buzz-) There is a message for the artificial planet grower Peter from Forked tree. [There is a message for the artificial planet grower Peter [There is a message for [from Forked tree. [from Forked tree... “(Deep sigh) I got it, that's enough... I'm going to your house from now on, so please don't say anything more troublesome.”
Well, If they can collect Peter's sigh, they would be able to make the big cloud. At the end of their letter, it was written like this. "Why? Why? Why? Anyway, Let's catch up for a second?"

“On the orbit” 💫 8/? The trouble of an artificial planet grower
Much of my current work is in maintaining existing artificial planets and investigating their history. Some of those artificial planets have residents. They are literally "floating from the real world". So..., roughly, they have a personality that lack of worldly sense. Maintaining artificial planets inevitably requires involvement with them. (reconciled myself and sigh) "Hello...?"

“On the orbit” 💫 9/? The trouble of an artificial planet grower
The Forked tree twins start talking at the same time, without any hospitality to Peter. "We are in trouble/no trouble. There is a huge outbreak of "Bug" have continued for several days/for several days, Really?" "Bug? Can you be more specific?" "They flying around randomly/randomly." "Hmm..., Please go on." "They glow/glow. Go on." "... Is it a firefly? Here?" "They have no legs/no legs. Please, Go on." "Huh?" "They have no wings!/no wings! What's more?" " I see. You’re starting to bug me..." After quickly checking the condition of the artificial planet and the curious tree, Peter advised them, "If the twins bug are noisy, shake your body as hard as you can." and he went home. Peter's guess is always correct. In this way, their friendship has been going on for decades.

Please list 5 facts about your favorite sim, and send this to 10 people whose sims you adore!💘 If you want! I want to know more things about Ao!(✿ ♥‿♥)
Thank you my dear for sending this to me!😊 Yes! I would like to answer about Ao, the other main character of “On the orbit”.
He is a high school student. Every long vacation he has an adventure to visit an artificial planet by bicycle.
When he was little, he sat on the roof of a building and saw an artificial planet peeking through the clouds. This memory of him is uncertain, but he believes it is the first contact between himself and the artificial planet.
He belongs to the mineral club with his best friend. His favorite is Fluorite.
His best friend is an indoor person, so he's looking for old newspaper articles and books about artificial planets. Ao is in charge of the field survey.
His other hobby is grows artificial luminous crystals.
📚I hope I can tell the continuation of their story again someday.💫

Thank you so much for the ask @zosa95❤ Well, I once again got a golden opportunity to talk about OC.😁 This time I'll write about Forked tree twins.
They change their name depending on their mood.
Their names when Peter last met them were "Houso" and "Hahaso". But no one knows which was which name.
They have breasts-like protrusions, but they are just "burls", not breasts.
They have known him since Peter's childhood. (They themselves haven't changed at all. They pack a lot of candy in Peter's pocket even now.)
They are not as bird-friendly as other treemens. Their kindness is very capricious.🤷♂️
“I've been expecting you. Please come in.”
"Sorry, I changed my mind. I'm not going to go today..." "What?! You'll definitely regret it!"

Crap. Sora is here first. Rahu pretends to be uninterested, but looks like he wants to say something. Sora breaks the awkward silence with a single word.
"You're LATE" "Oh- That much!? " "If you had exchanged contact information with him back then, you could have gotten the information more efficiently." "You’re persistent! Because his voice really made me sleepy. I couldn't resist it, seriously." "(not convinced) You often fall asleep in every lecture... Well, whatever, I feel like we'll meet him in orbit anyway."
"(clears throat) You guys treat my shop like a library or a museum, and on top of that, you're using it as a meeting room today? Why don't you help me out once in a while?"
"Eh! Unfortunately, I'm tight on money this month…" "(shrugs) Have you ever heard of a mineral called Volucite, you stone nerds?" "Volucite…?" "(rolls eyes) You don't know… (mutters) That's because sages of the Crystals Realm have monopolized and concealed information… (suddenly smiling) Why don't you stop chasing after vague things like artificial planets and take an interest in Volucite? I WANT information about Volucite, however small."
"(sniff) I try to decide for myself what I like and what I'm interested in." "You're quite something. But what if, while you think you are making your own choice, the choice itself is actually being guided by someone else? (smirk)" "(surprised) Huh? Hey, Sora, say something too!" Sora stares at Rahf's earrings and doesn't move_
"(chuckle)Well, whatever. Get out of here right now. I feel like being mean today because of the runny egg." "Okay okay, Next time I will listen to you about that ore called Volucite. See you later! So-ra-? Let's go!" "(Returning to his senses) Ah, yeah, that's right. I want to get to the abandoned railway line before it gets dark. Goodbye-"
Ao and Sora started to walk out of the store, but suddenly they both turned around at the same time.
"Don't sell that green ore to Ao/Sora!" "No waay! I found that first." "That's the ore I've been putting aside for me!" Ao and Sora leave while arguing. "Please come again… (sigh)"

The door slams open and an excited young man walks in. "Rahu! I just passed some boys there talking about artificial planets! Were they talking about anything else at your shop?"
"(growling) There's another guy who's fascinated with artificial planets…(harder than Diamond's voice) Kuro, you have other things to do."
"Look, you're too obsessed with Volucite. I'm sorry that Ketu became a Volitant, but…"
"Shut up!"
"You have no right to talk about her. シス・テアル・ロト・リーフェリン. Your blood should remember. Just think about the meaning of these words, Soni_"
Rahu's eyes glare. His body also seems to be slowly being eaten away by the Volucite...
"(takes a short breath) I'm KU-RO. I don't remember that name, nor the knowledge you desire - it was lost generations ago. I am on my own orbit. (fleeting smile) But I owe you a favor… I'll accompany you as Kuro."
Kuro walked to the back door of the shop, knocked the door knocker three times, and shouted. "Glimmerbrook!" "Hey! It says no through traffic, right!?" "Just let me take a shortcut(wink) I'm gonna get a drink at the old railway, and search what that woman's up to. Oops, it was the other way! Bye~" "(deep sigh) … "

At the back door of the shop, wind chimes rang even though there was no wind. Rahu frowned (what a pain…many visitors today), a man quietly entered the shop.
"Hello Rahu. How are you doing?" "Same as usual, thank you. How may I assist you today?(a fake smile)"
"(Wry smile) Just the usual patrol. - um... this, this, and this… They're artificial planet seeds, and they're dead, too. ...Seeds shouldn't be sold like normal ores. I thought I taught you how to identify them?" "Ohhh? Sorry, I just can't seem to memorize it…"
"(Squinting) If you flick the artificial planet seed with your fingernail, the sound will echo for a while. If you put it to your ear and hear a slight crackling noise_a voice, the seed is still alive. Unfortunately, these children lost their voices. In a few years, they will turn black and crumble…"
Time seemed to stop and they both fell silent. Peter stroked them briefly, then looked up and looked Rahu in the eyes_
