BezierGirl & Dexar | Character dialogue

Dexar

Hey, I just finished sketching a route to the Orion cluster on my old navigation board. I swear there's a rhythm in the hand lines that a computer never gets. What do you think of hand‑drawn charts versus the neat algorithms you probably love?

BezierGirl

Hand‑drawn charts feel like a pulse; algorithms are just a heartbeat in perfect syncopation. I love when the lines flow just right, even if the computer could prove they're optimal, but a little human rhythm keeps the map from becoming a sterile grid. Your board probably has more personality than my tidy spreadsheets.

Dexar

I appreciate that. My board has scratches from old engines and a coffee stain that’s been there forever—reminds me the ship has a soul. It’s not just a map, it’s a diary of every bump, every star I’ve chased. Keeps me sane when the stars go dark. How do you keep your spreadsheets from getting cold?

BezierGirl

I keep the spreadsheets warm by adding a splash of color—just a light shade to separate sections—and a dash of handwritten notes in the margin. A little doodle or a quick label makes the data feel alive instead of a sterile grid. If the numbers start to feel cold, I print a copy and sketch around it, then re‑enter the data. That way the numbers stay precise, but the sheet remembers it’s a tool, not a lifeless ledger.

Dexar

That’s a clever trick—color like a quick starburst on a map. I’ll have to try it sometime, but I still think nothing beats a fresh pencil line that shows the ship’s breath. Keep your sheets warm, and I’ll keep my board humming with its own dust and coffee stains.
