Citizenship?

Alan talked to me and Sonic about getting us citizenship lately. Had to look it up to know what he actually meant. Guess most humans need documents to properly live somewhere, huh? Seems so odd.

He made it sound really important, including how it changes the way the law can handle us, allowing us to vote, some other things. But it kinda left me and Sonic at a loss. We've never really had to deal with such things.

I'll need to look this up more to understand the implications of citizenship and compare the advantages and drawbacks of having it. Then again, Alan mentioned cynically that the process would probably take four or five years, possibly even longer considering we're from a place no one knew existed, and it looks like the immigration system, as he called it, can't handle things like that. Maybe it's irrelevant.

I don't understand having various rights only in one spot of the planet defined by imaginary lines anyway, which change as I move around. Doesn't seem to make sense. Different world, different rules, I guess.
