"I had not given it much thought before, actually."

> You think for a moment.

"Romance of any sort had never been on my mind until recent sweeps. Even then it had not been an active pursuit of mine... I will admit I tend to find women more attractive to men, though gender does not matter much to me when it comes to filling my quadrants."

"For my flushed quadrants it seems as though a common link between the two I have is that they are people I can rely on and feel comforted by. They are mature, intelligent in their own ways, and do not underestimate me. I am very lucky to have them~"

"As for ashen quadrants... I am not sure. I have never held pitch feelings for another. I am aware that a spade is supposed to challenge you, a romantic sort of rival, but I have not the faintest clue what would attract me to someone of that nature."

"Ah, I had wondered where you had run off too. I assumed that a hunter such as yourself wouldn't be bested by someone else, but one can never be too sure..."

“Oh, there are plenty of developments! I have managed to further my research into converting my poisons into gas. I simply need to perfect the method and find suitable containers for the gas...And test it out. Given the risk involved I have been proceeding with caution and should anything go wrong my new lab has an emergency vent system in place!”

“I’m hoping I can enter the final stages of development before the end of the sweep at the very least.”

“Strange how? There have been a number of peculiar deaths, for example I once found a troll who had been drowned despite not being near a body of water. Then there are mutations, which are always odd in their own ways, both in trolls and animals. Sealife is something I have little experience with so they are puzzling...”
