"So. So. SO. Like. You know how all of the stories that have dragons in them are all about them getting chopped up and stuff?"

"Yeah. Well, in OUR book (with some help from our siblings, too) we're writing up, we're switching it around!"

"See, now the knight over here's guarding up the dragon all locked up, right? See, right here, this picture is another dragon saving the one from getting stuck by that knight's big sword thing."

"Lance."

"Big lance thing. So that's why he's all burned up now. And on this page he's all crispy and these two dragons are now all in love and stuff."

"That one's a princess dragon. Not our idea-!!"

"Yeah, you can look at it more, missus. Uhhhhh! It's a work in progress!"

"My question, this time: If you could get to be a HUNDRED feet tall for a whole day, what would you do?"

Smirking, Ghaurug replies with humor in his voice. "I suppose I might stomp around a big town like they say the Prince of Destruction did in the Imperial City on the final day of the Oblivion Crisis. Maybe scoop up a few terrified citizens and pop 'em in my mouth like tiny, screaming grapes, or pull some buildings out of the ground and shake all the people out. Oh, or I could see how far across the continent I could run...maybe pop up to the stronghold of my birth and crush the place under my heel, or go to the coast and see if I can see any other landmasses." He ponders it a while longer. "I don't know, it sounds fun."

"My question now," he says after a moment, "is this: if you got the chance to take revenge on someone who wronged you, how would you do it?"

"Yeesh, somebody's feelin' a little violent today, huh?" The rogue quipped. She stepped forward, pretending to take interest in her nails as she answered the male's question, "It's quite the simple plan, and one they wouldn't expect. I will treat them well, and apologize for any ill thoughts passed between us. Once I've earned their trust I'll invite them over for a nice friendly meal and drink. Afterwards, I'll take them to a quiet, private place. Then, I shall either teach them a lesson; to never, ever wrong me. They'll either end up seriously wounded or dead, depending on what they did."

She turned to the next person, adding, "As for my question to you, what should be the goal of humanity, and what needs to be done to achieve it?"

"I don't believe in revenge." Camila shrugs, her hands in the pockets of her shorts as the salty sea air softly blows her hair back. "But I do believe in karma. Karma always works it's way around and truly is a... certain B-word like they say it is." Slowly the dark lashes framing her eyes blink shut, opening again moments later to turn to the setting sun as she thinks of her own question.

Turning back, a gentle smile plays at her lips, twitching the corners upwards and she reaches up to gather her hair in between her hands at the back of her head before letting it go again. "What is the one thing that you could see yourself doing for the rest of your life?"

Shinga rolled a platinum coin over his knuckles then flicked his wrist to hide it with a sleight of hand trick. "Procuring items from old ruins. Hey, no one else is using it. Might as well go to a good cause."

He tossed the aforementioned coin to a random person. "Care to join me for a drink?"

"What is the one thing that you could see yourself doing for the rest of your life?"

Traveling. Wandering makes a man humble, seeing what a small section of the earth he occupies, yet stronger of body and of mind. There is honor in planting one's roots to sustain a community or form a family. But in exploration, one comes to better understand the world beyond a house, and in this one comes to truly value his home. To delve into the unknown is to experience the intimacy of untrodden depths, to revel in the culture and industry of civilization, to behold the organic machine of Nature in all of her impersonal wiles. We find our pasts within the wilderness and see our future carved into modern architecture. Always will I take time to tend my people, my property, and my progenies. But never will my thirst for discovery be truly slaked. The world is ever changing, ever growing, and there will always be opportunity to travel somewhere new. I've many a goal for my home. Yet whether I am wandering for distraction or fulfillment, travel is a necessity I will never tire of.
Which begs the question...

...which place is dearest to you?

"Hell I always have a great tan and we barbecue the most famous people. We're waiting on a few to join us". As she looks down the street she asks a complete stranger. "Are you a sinner or a saint?".

I am an angel.

If you had a nice and crispy baguette and I happened to wander by and steal that nice and crispy baguette from you and eat it, when does that nice and crispy baguette cease to become yours and become mine, instead?

"Stealing is still stealing, and does not change who the legitimate owner of a thing is. now if you had asked and they chose to give it to you, then it would be yours."

"If you were an all powerful god, what kind of world would you make?"

"Um...A peaceful world, a world without war?"

"Is true peace actually achievable?"

"Given time there is always that possibility." the ancient vampire says after a moment of thought.

"What is it you find most calming in a stressful situation?"

"A thoughtful question," the prince compliments. "What I find relaxing is just closing my eyes for a moment, taking a deep breath, and listening to the arcane energies humming all around and through me. Just stopping for a moment to pay attention to those energies will be enough sometimes if I cannot do the other things."

"Where would you like to go and/or live if you were free of responsibilities or obligations?"

"Well, I would like to go to my home place, New Bodhum. Same as living there, that way I can keep watch over my sister and her-" She stopped short, immediately rolling her eyes. "And her fiancé." The last word had simply made Lightning boil from head to toe. Turning to the next person, she asked, "Would you kill a god if they had wronged you?"

"Honestly...I might."

"What lengths would you go to ensure a friend fallen would be recognized...?"

Malos remains silent, though the man that follows him, Jin has an answer. "I feel like...I'd physically preserve them in some way to serve as a reminder."

"Do you fear change?"

"Why would I fear it? Money is money, even if it's coins, grrr." Clearly not getting it.

"I've been told my weapons are weird looking, grrr. Waddaya think?" He holds thisup.

"It's... er..." She had trouble finding the right words. After all, her choice of weapon wasn't exactly mainstream. "Very unique!" She finished, hoping not get on their bad side.

She turned to the next person, "Well what about you? What weapon do you prefer?" She asked. "I usually use my staff or a dagger, but I have been trained with other weapons as well."
