- Juicy[Ryan]> So you're nomadic, in that you don't have a home or place to go back to for shelter or the like.
- <Nymali> "Who are you?"
- <Nymali> "How did you know that?"
- <Juicy[Ryan]> ...
- <Juicy[Ryan]> Ok, less THAT MUCH in character.
- <Nymali> Aww
- <Nymali> I didn't even get to question where the voice was coming from.
- <Juicy[Ryan]> We're not playing fun with Doc Scratch.
- <Juicy[Ryan]> I don't really have the time.
- <Nymali> Okay, sorry
- <Juicy[Ryan]> So I'm going to take it as a yes.
- <Nymali> Yes
- <Juicy[Ryan]> Why?
- <Nymali> Because it was either that, or be without my lusus for most of my life
- <Juicy[Ryan]> Where does your lusus go?
- <Nymali> He goes to some troll islands and this place to the south, further inland.(I think, I have no idea how the geography works in this world)
- <Juicy[Ryan]> So there is a pattern?
- <Nymali> Yes, his destinations are always the same spots, but I try altering them each time by traveling when he isn't migrating so we begin somewhere else.
- <Juicy[Ryan]> Can you predict when it's time to move again?
- <Nymali> Yes, he always goes at the same times.
- <Juicy[Ryan]> Seasonal migration then.
- <Nymali> Yes'
- <Juicy[Ryan]> How long are you going to follow it?
- <Nymali> Until I become an adult.
- <Juicy[Ryan]> What will you do then?
- <Nymali> I will have to begin my jade duties, looking after the mothergrub
- <Juicy[Ryan]> Is that something you're looking forward to?
- <Nymali> No.
- <Juicy[Ryan]> Why?
- <Nymali> Because it is something I will have to do for the rest of my life.
- <Juicy[Ryan]> So? All must have a career.
- <Nymali> Yes, but I don't have a choice.
- <Juicy[Ryan]> If you were simply asked to work in the brooding caverns, rather than be ... coerced, would you?
- <Nymali> I don't know,
- <Nymali> Most likely not.
- <Juicy[Ryan]> What do you want to do?
- <Nymali> I don't know, I try not to think about what can't happen.
- <Juicy[Ryan]> Are you scared of your future?
- <Nymali> Not scared, maybe dreading it would be the best way to put it.
- <Juicy[Ryan]> What is so bad about caring for the future of your people?
- <Nymali> It isn't exactly bad, I am not going to try to avoid it or anything, it is an important job that has to be done.
- <Juicy[Ryan]> Yet you dread it, without really a good reason aside from you don't get to choose it, and even if you could you would deny it. Again, why?
- <Nymali> I hate the idea of having to spend my life at the brooding caverns.
- <Juicy[Ryan]> Are you scared of the dark or something?
- <Juicy[Ryan]> You said it's not exactly bad, but you don't want to spend your life there, which isn't like.. you're not CONSTANTLY there, it's just your job... or something like it.
- <Nymali> I am not scared of the dark, I just hate the idea of being there for the majority of my life
- <Juicy[Ryan]> What is so bad about it?
- <Nymali> I will be stuck there.
- <Juicy[Ryan]> So let's talk about your current situation. I assume you are quite the survivalist.
- <Nymali> I can be, depending on what you mean.
- <Juicy[Ryan]> Can you hunt?
- <Nymali> I don't really hunt, scavenge yes.
- <Juicy[Ryan]> No meat? Or scavenge dead animals, as well?
- <Nymali> No meat I get myself, scavenging dead animals is usually not a good idea. I often go into towns to stock up on supplies.
- <Juicy[Ryan]> Do you enjoy your life as it is now?
- <Nymali> I love it.
- <Juicy[Ryan]> What about the people you meet in your travels?
- <Nymali> What about them?
- <Juicy[Ryan]> Do you enjoy meeting them?
- <Nymali> Sometimes.
- <Nymali> People react to me in different ways, it doesn't always work out well.
- <Juicy[Ryan]> So you generally like people, but are cautious.
- <Nymali> Yes, maybe too much so, especially on the first meeting.
- <Juicy[Ryan]> It has gotten you into trouble.
- <Nymali> Being cautious? I think it has helped me out many times.
- <Juicy[Ryan]> Oh, you mean cautious. I thought maybe you meant you like people too much.
- <Nymali> No, I meant I can be overly cautious around strangers. Possibly also overly polite as well, while waiting for things to turn sour with my hand on my specibus.
- <Juicy[Ryan]> Is there anything I have not asked that you feel I should know.
- <Nymali> I'm sure there is, but I can't think of anything.
- <Juicy[Ryan]> Alright you're free to go.
