5. Are you in love?

Prana:She bites her lip, blushing and looking away.  “I…I think so, y-yes.”  Her ears fluff up.  “I-I love him,” she says with a shy smile, still getting used to saying it.  “I-it takes time to be i-in love, though, I think.  B-but I th-think…we’ll get there.”

Gwynn:“Ah…no."  She looks amused.  "Ain’t got no one special er anythin’."  She chuckles and motions for the next question.

Darrah:She shifted her weight to rest one full hip against the wall, her arms crossed.  She looked suspicious, but thoughtful.  “No.  I am not certain I am capable of such anymore, as it were.”  The tiniest bit of indicision flashes across her features.  “I might not mind it if I still retain the ability.”

15. Do you have any piercings?

Prana:She looks relieved at the easier question.  “Ah, y-yep.”  Points at the two silver hoops in each of her ears, partially blending in with the white feathers.

Gwynn:"A’course.  Who doesn’t, sweets?  I got these bad boys!"  She motions to the giant Exile skulls hanging from her earlobes.  "Thought ‘bout piercin’ more places, but, uh, didn’t want ‘em ta get infected while I’m out explorin’ and not able to bathe for a few days."  She shrugs.  "Ah well.”

Tekka:“Sure,” she motions to the rectangle plates dangling from halfway up her ears.  “I’m more of a carvings kinda girl, y’know, but got it recced ta me.  Can’t hurt, right?  And it didn’t.  Prob’ly won’t get more, but I kinda like ‘em."  She smirks.

25. Do you want to be in a relationship this year?

Prana:"Um…I’m i-in one now, so…y-yes.  Definitely."  She giggles, covering her mouth with her hand.

Gwynn:"Uh…sure, why not?  I mean, I’m not much of a relationship kinda gal, but wouldn’t rule it out.  Casual ones are cool too, sugah."  She winks.  "Don’t see me doin’ monogamy or nothin’, though.  Not really my style.”

Korravai:She blinks at the odd question, taking a few moments to mull it over.  Her tail lashes a few times before she nods.  “I would not necessarily say I actively want one, but I would be open to it again, I think.  It has been a long time.  Perhaps I should stop mourning my lost mate.”

35. Have you ever kissed someone older than you?

Prana:She blushes brightly.  “Ah…y-yes.”  She stares at her feet, seemingly unwilling to elaborate.  She mumbles something about biology majors, lab mates, and exams.

Gwynn:She grins wickedly.  “You bet.  Older ‘n’ experienced make tha best teachers.”  She laughs, the look on her face one of fond rememberance.

Khethri (not to be confused with Kethri, apparently, hah):She gives a languid shrug of her shoulders.  “Perhaps.”  Her smile is all sharp teeth, her tail flicking dangerously behind her.  “Why, have someone in mind?”  She tests a claw against her thumb, satisfied of their sharpness at the small bead of blood.

45. How many people did you kiss in 2012/2013?  None because it’s only 1665.  XD

Prana:Her blush deepens.  “A-a few…  I…I d-don’t know…  I d-didn’t count…”  She winces.  “I-is that bad?”  She curls her arms and tail around herself, her ears drooping.

Gwynn:“Pfft, a lady don’t keep score, lovely.”  A shit-eating grin spreads across her face.  She tucks her arms behind her head and kicks her feet up.  “But there were a lot.”

Aziva:She blinks.  “I was not activated yet.  I am sorry.”  ((Kind of a cop out.  Picked at random, oh well~!))

55. Share a relationship story.

Prana:She starts and stops a few times, her cheeks staying red.  “A-ah, I-I guess…w-when we were s-set up.  Varynn s-said he and a friend wanted to hang out.  He introduced Mits,” she smiles as she says the name, “and th-then he just kind of wandered off.  It…took a little wh-while for us to realize what he was doing.”  She chuckles and shakes her head.  “S-somehow we found stuff to talk about, and had a tickle fight on the couch.  I d-don’t remember everything we talked about, but…but it was a good night.”  She scuffs her toe, smiling to herself, and then snorts.  “V-Varynn is still telling Aaylia she should give him a trophy for b-being a matchmaker.”  She rolls her eyes and giggles.

Gwynn:"Uh…hmm…nope, I got nothin’.  Like I said, never really done ‘relationships’ an’ all.  Few nights or maybe if I see ya ‘roun’, maybe.  And ain’t much ta say ‘bout those, ‘less you want me to kiss’n’tell."  She laughs.

Vissa:She freezes ever so slightly, her lips tightening.  “We were going to name our children after stars.  We spoke about it so often, but could never agree on which ones.  Or we would forget those we had agreed upon.  It was like a game.”  She pauses.  “He is dead now, as is my ability to reproduce.  I am uncertain if that makes for a merry memory or not.”

65. What is your favourite foreplay routine?

Prana:Her eyes go wide.  If she wasn’t already blushing, she’d have gone from from pale to bright red in about a second.  “I…oh M-Matrias, dd-o I h-have to a-answer this?” she pleads.  She lets out a small whine, pulling her hat and feathered ears down to cover her eyes.  “I…I d-d-don’t know, um…k-kissing?”  She pulls the hat lower, covering her whole face.  Muffled, she can just barely be understood as saying, “…And biting.”

Gwynn:"Ooo, that’s a tough one!  But ‘routine’?  Nah.  I like most things, so it’s fun ta just figure it out as ya go.  Maybe they wanna kiss a lot, maybe they don’ like bein’ kissed."  She shrugs.  "Some of the most fun is just figurin’ out what gets ‘em goin’.  I think I just enjoy gettin’ ta touch."  After a moment, she adds, "Actually, yeah, I think I also like when clothes come off real slow-like.  There’s a time for just tossin’ yer kit off to get down ta things, but gettin’ ta take yer time is more fun.”

Sirenne:She grins, the tips of a few teeth looking a bit too sharp for a Human.  “A good chase.  Whether I get to chase them for fun or I’ve found them to wind down after I’ve finished a chase.  Might be interesting to find someone who loves it as much as I do, who would run and sing with me.”  She looks hungry, then blinks.  “What would I be chasing?  What else: whatever fucking heretics I’m told to hunt down.”  Her grin widens just a touch too much for sanity.  “The kill is amazing, but it’s the chase that really gets me going.”

75. What’s the sweetest thing anyone’s ever done for you?

Prana:She peeks out from behind her hat, wary of the safe question.  Relaxing, she bites her lip and tilts her head in thought.  “D-do you mean romantically?  Or…or j-just in general?”  She thinks for a moment.  “In general…w-well, recently, Murdock helped me with some research.  He’s really busy, b-but he even explained to me how things worked as a technologist.  It was really nice.”  She smiles, then squints.  “Romantically…um…  I-I guess…Mits likes to tell me he thinks I’m amazing, a-and important to him.”  She smiles shyly.  “I’m n-nothing special, but…he seems to think so.  I…k-kind of like it when he tells me so, I g-guess.”

Gwynn:“As a strictly platonic thing, m’ older brother bought me my first set of explorer gear tha day I turned eighteen."  She beams.  "But if ya mean in the more…’relationship’-y way,” complete with air quotes, “I guess there was that one guy who rented out a ship ta take me planetside with ‘im.  Was a fun week, lot of explorin’, in more than one sense."  Her eyes crinkle as she smiles, the memory genuinely making her happy.

Hallie:She looks up from the engine she’s working on, smearing grease as she wipes the sweat from her forehead.  “What’s this now?  Honey, Ah got work t’- ah, starbursts, fine.  Nicest thin’ a partner eva did…  Made me a spice rack.”  She levels her wrench at the questioner.  “Might not seem much, givin’ a lady cookin’ stuff, but most ev’one who knows li’l ol’ me knows Ah like machines, motors, an’ bots.  But this fella undastood that Ah like t’ feed folk too.  Damn good at it, if’n ya wonderin’.”  She grins, then goes back to tinkering.

85. Would you ever date someone off of the Internet?

Prana:She looks a little iffy.  “B-but I’m already dating s-someone…  OH!  H-hypothetically?  I…I g-guess, sure.  I w-was never brave enough to try to m-meet people on the holonet, though.”  She gives an awkward shrug.

Gwynn:She shrugs.  “Sure, I guess.  Lotsa people who aren’t lookin’ for anythin’ long term like that, and don’t even need ta waste money at a bar.  Though my mama would slap me silly if I didn’t think ta at least meet somewhere public an’ go somewhere neutral with ‘em.  I mean, not that she likes me flittin’ about anyway, but she’s still a mama an’ she worries.”  She waves off getting sidetracked.  “So yeah, sure, why not.  Might be fun.”
