A QUESTION FOR A QUESTION

Your character starts by asking a question, which the other party answers and follows up with their own question. If your character has ever been nosy about something, now is the time to prod into it! Though, I warn you, no one is obligated to be honest in their answers. Lies are allowed. The only requirement is that you provide an answer to the question you're asked.

Instructions:
1. Top level with a question that your character is asking.
2. Go around and answer interesting questions, and leave those characters questions in return!

Gotcha! I suppose a lot of it can be kinda jarring the first time you see most of it... still, you don't have anything like electricity back at your place...

Oh, but don't worry about it! I don't mind answering a two-for. And if it is against some unspoken rule... well sometimes rules are meant to be broken. [She gave him a grin in return. Before stopping to think his question over a bit. It was a few moments before Cleve answered.]

But yeah... something like that. I was part of the Navy back home. And... well the sea can get real lonely, cold, and harsh but... it's also peaceful, free, and relaxing and comfortable in its own way. Somewhere you can roam along and be able to see most of the whole world. Sooo... yeah, I miss it. I miss it a lot in ways I can't really describe properly....

You ever get to see the ocean?

The Navy, heavens...! That must have made for an eventful living! My country was landlocked, so I never really had the chance to see the ocean until I found myself elsewhere. Even then, there was a lot of... unpleasantness around it all many of the times that I was there. But there was never much chance to actually sail...

[probably a good thing - it had always been a bit hit-and-miss with Linneus and modern transport]

When you were back on land, what were your favourite things to do, in your world?

[clevebro]

Mm, it can get real eventful at times. And really boring at others. Still, being stuck on land though, that's something I can't imagine. [For more than one reason.] Hm... oh! But whenever I got shoreside I'd usually spend sometime in my quarters relaxing and catching up on recent news. I'd also go and play a few sports with some of the others on base to blow off some steam and stay in top shape... what else... hm, I also really liked to go to the movies, or explore wherever I might be if I'm not at my home docks.

When you're stuck in the middle of the ocean for weeks or months at a time you usually kind of like to start catching up and doing things that you weren't able to.

So... would you like to go out onto the ocean sometime? Without anything unpleasant happening, of course! Not that I'd think there'd be anything unpleasant.

[Probably, the sea's unpredictable at best.]
