The Miran system. [He repeats it as if saying it would have it make sense, but of course it doesn't. She's clearly human. But far as he knows, they've never left the solar system. So he frowns.]
An' I ain't head of L-21 or the Miran system, either. But no, I ain't from Earth. Same system, different planet. I was born on Mars, spend most of my time livin' in the Belt, now.
L-21 don't sound exactly like a planet. That an asteroid? [Only asteroids get away without having numbers for designations, in the solar system, and even some of them - like Ceres - are big enough to get proper names.]
