Birthdays, fighting and sex. Those seem to be the most popular things to talk about on the network lately but like, I'm sure you people have other things that hold your interest right?

Like what do you do for fun that isn't fighting or sex? I can't speak on birthdays since it's not something my species celebrate, but if you don't have an answer for the first question then I guess you could always try explaining why birthdays are so important?

[She's been wondering this for a while but didn't feel it would be best to ask these things with her name attached.]

Medical? You're a healer of some sorts then?

[doctorize]

Something like that. To be more specific, I provide therapy and counseling to people in need of it, but I also have experience in the medical field for dealing with physical injuries and sickness as well.

[riptidequeen]

Huh, interesting.

[There are no therapists on Homeworld.]

[doctorize]

I certainly find it to be.

What about you? What are you interested in?

[riptidequeen]

I would hope you do find it interesting, if it's what you do.

And I like art, reading and plants.

[doctorize]

Oh yeah? What do you like to read by comparison?

[riptidequeen]

Ah well... Fiction... Romance sort of?

[doctorize]

Ah, I see. I don't read a lot of those, but if you have any recommendations, I'll make a note of checking them out sometime?

[riptidequeen]

I haven't really dipped my toes into much here, so all my recommendations would be from my own world.

[doctorize]

That's a shame. Then again, I suppose I could say the same when recommending any books myself here.

So then, you also mentioned you liked plants and art. Do you grow your own plants, or draw your own creations... or do you simply like collecting plants and pieces of artwork?

[riptidequeen]

How unfortunate then, for both of us.

Oh I used to have a farm back home, and I do my own art. It's all very relaxing and fun.

[doctorize]

Ah, I see! You must be pretty talented, being able to take care of a farm and do your own art.

[riptidequeen]

Oh well, I wasn't alone with the farm so not that talented there. And I just do the art for fun.

[doctorize]

No, no, I still think there's some talent in what you do--regardless of whether or not you were alone with it or not, most people from the city don't actually know anything about farming. Or at least, that was the case back home anyway.

[riptidequeen]

Well, at first I didn't know much about farming either. Like, heh, I didn't know that corn can't talk.

[doctorize]

[A pause, and then...]

I think that would be a tad alarming if corn or really any vegetable was capable of speech.

[riptidequeen]

Well. My species grows out of the ground, so could you blame us for thinking the same applied to vegetables?

[doctorize]

... Fair enough?

[can't argue with that, i guess]

[riptidequeen]

[She can't say much more to that, but she is laughing on her end.]
