How about a favorite snack?

Writer: "… beef jerky."

Writer: "Er… I don't think I'm very prone to using the same phrase repeatedly."

Interesting. How about your least used phrase?

Writer: "Eh… Again. I'm not really that fond of using one thing over and over again. Although… I'm not the best at self observation. Maybe my friends see something I don't."

Do you have many friends?

Writer: "Right. That sounds like something he'd order."

Would you say you're well liked among people?

Kel: "Among people I know well? Yes. Among most everyone else? I doubt it."

Writer: "I… think so. If anyone hates me they don't make it very obvious."

What's your lineage/blood line like?

Kel: "I'm a mutt. Once your species has been globalized for over ten generations, bloodlines get muddled. Nobody I know bothers to keep track."

Writer: "Irish. Filipino."

Are you happy with your lineage/blood line?

Kel: "My genes are in perfect working order, so I don't see why I should care beyond that."

Writer: "I don't see why I would be unhappy."

How far back does your lineage/blood line go?

Writer: "… no clue."

Kel: "Same."

Almost done. If there were one thing about yourself that you could change, what would it be?  

Kel: "I'd make my wings work for a change. That'd be nice."

Writer: "It'd be awesome to have a comprehensive understanding of Particle Physics and its associated disciplines."

Kel: "… screw the 'wings' thing. The kid knows where it's at! What he said!"

What's your line of work?  

Writer: "Student."

Kel: "Information courier, more or less."

What's your preferred tool of the trade?

Writer: "A blue pen usually serves fine… except for math. You know what? Scratch that. A pencil works for all occasions. Even scantrons. Especially scantrons."

Kel: "My Class Seven High Energy Fully Automatic Pulse Rifle. Hasn't failed me yet. Even at long range."

Last question. What would you do if you suddenly appeared in your creator's world?  

Kel: "Figure out how the HELL I traveled back in time three-hundred years… then abuse my knowledge of futuristic technology for profit."

Alright we're done, you can go now.
