Do you have an eating establishment you prefer for romantic purposes?[/quote]
Astherson: No. Not really. As long as you are able to cook and to be original at the same time you may want to have a romantic dinner at your own lodgings. Turning regular food preparation process into a game for you and the other person may be an interesting and icebreaking part of that special evening you schemed. If you know what I mean.
Clem: My hon likes sweets. A lot. So, sometimes we go for a stroll around the palace quarter, so she could ravage a bakery or two. One day I noticed the amounts of sugar sheās able to consume in a minute or so, which made me stop wondering of why is she so sweet.
Clem: Do you have any leave destinations? Some particular overzea places to regain your breath after having a bit too much of London?
Corpsecage island. Itās quiet, far away enough from the smoke for Evensong to feel better, and filled with so many interesting ruins to explore. The Carnelian coast is a close second, but a bit too far to be a good day trip.
What is one place in London or outside of London that you would never return back to?
A certain chamber in Clay Quarters under Ladybones Road. You should have a fairly good idea why. Itās been almost a year, yet Iām still uneasy about it as if it happened yesterday.
Why are glassmen forbidden to wear their spectacles together with hats (unless unfinished, but those donāt count)?

WHAT KIND OF SHIP DO YOU HAVE AND WHY DID YOU PICK IT?[/quote]
Andrew: My naval vessel and my pride is a third generetion submarine. Why? Because it is armed, much safer than the regular ship (once you know how to handle it) and can easily cut through waters of surface seas. It happens so that my submarine covers all my needs and requirements. The only downside is itās cargo capacity restriction. I must also mention that the process of itās construction was tiresome and expensive to the extent that driven my fellow naval architect (and also co-designer) to treat āherā as his own daughter. I consider his eccentrism understandable.
Clem: I picked a swift steam clipper. Mostly 'cause it is mobile, stealthy and easy to operate either with limited crew or without such. Thatās the traits that are valued among men of me profession, not speaking that having a clipper gives you certain daringly luxorious fleur in the eyes of others. Who needs yachts at this age, anyway ?
Andrew: It happened so that I ran across some musically ignited folks soon after my recent return from the latest Surface voyage. In light of the fact that I will soon open a new season at my salon, Iād like to update my knowledge on actual musical tastes of londoners.
Is there some kind of music you would very like to listen? Is it one of those recently written and explosively popular symphonies of eastern European school? Or, perhaps, you long to hear folklore tunes and songs of countries both familiar and unknown? edited by Andrew Astherson on 3/1/2016
Dirae Erinyes: Scotland - anything from Scotland really. Or those old folk songs that Morning Glory sung from India. If you donāt have those, something sweet.
Evensong: I personally like the symphonies. Iām trying to understand the surface, and learning what they like and why the like is an excellent exercise. I want to learn to see the sky through listening.
Question: If you could return to the surface, where would you go?

Rysiek: Either back to Duisburg or to New York. It may be interesting.
Maria: To Warsaw. Though if Eliza would come with meā¦ Paris. Or is there a more romantic city?
Frank: Back to Liverpool.
Agata: Back to my flat in Montmartre. And to Saras Grave.
If you could choose ANY lodgings, which would you take?
Ugh, even rats are better than mushrooms! I hate eating plants - Iām not sure mushrooms qualify as such, but they spring from the soil and are all soft and chewy, and thatās very vegetable-like. I only eat food with legs.
(Mushroom wine isā¦ Somethat drinkabile, though. I concede you this.)
Speaking of wineā¦ Whatās your favourite drink, alcholic or not? edited by Zeroebbasta on 3/3/2016
Appolonia: Tea, and particularly Murgatroydās Fungal Finest - a blend from Port Carnelian.
If you had the chance to wish for your heartās desire today (and a reasonable expectation that you would get what you wished for), what would your wish be?

[/li][li]Agata: Do you really need to ask, Ms. VonRavenscroft? I would get Sara back.[/li][li]Maria: That Eliza would marry me? Too impersonalā¦ she wouldnāt appreciate it. Maybe to see a free Poland?[/li][li]Rysiek: To see the next city. Do you want to play football with me? Do you actually even know what it is?[/li][li]
Valencia: Football? You mean that British sport that has men falling all over themselves for ball?
Glass Doll: I think the Greeks came up with it first.
Valencia: Donāt be daft. My family back on the Surface has good ties with the Greeks, and Iāve never heard of them doing anything of the sort! Anyways, I would be forced to decline, sir. It does not sound very ladylike. Though it does sound entertaining to watch, but I doubt it will catch on. The premise is most absurd.
Glass Doll: I would not like to, either. Sorry. Not hardy enough for that sort of exercise.
Dirae Erinyes: In a deep blue shrine in the arms of my wife. Itās so quiet there and the ceiling is the closest to the sky sheās ever seen. We donāt have to worry about visitors, so she can let her face air.
Question: Do you also like archeological expeditions?

A: Legalised grave-robbery! For Science! Who could resist? :)
Q: If you could recruit anyone (or thing) in the Neath as a permanent companion (or pet) who or what would that be? And what would be the reasons behind your choice?

Anatasia: For all the work we had with law enforcement, I found the lack of entanglement with individual constables very odd.
Kelly: I want to take the Widows out for a trip. Both Widows.
What do you like to watch at Mahogany Hall?[/quote]
Appolonia: I never miss the FLSO (Fallen London Symphony Orchestra). And the operas, of course. But, my very favorite, I think, is when they are brave enough to perform a forbidden production in the dead of the night. There is much to be learned from art that is considered dangerous.
Question: What is your favorite love story in the Neath? (Feel free to describe your own, or one that you discovered).
Dirae Erinye: Mine! Okay, to be less facetious and self-centered itās the women and her clayman fiance you see every Feast of the Rose. I thought long on this question and the reason I chose them is because of hope. There are many romances in the Neath and many more tragedies. However, hope of happy ending is much less common. I know they may not make it, but they arenāt doomed like many here. . .
Evensong: Any who defy the Chain.
Onto something lighter. How would you make shroom-hoping more exciting?
A question, if I may?
Do you believe that there is a cause worth permanently dying for, and if there is, what is it? edited by The Absurd Rogue on 3/15/2016

Maria: Love, Eli, Love. I wouldnāt die for the causes, Londons or mine. Not even for jewels. But I would give my life to save someone I loveā¦ or a friend. But forgive me, if you and Eliza would be attacked, I would save her, not youā¦
Rysiek: The truth. Without it, the world will go down.
Frank:Carnal pleasures! A good way to go! And my aim in lifeā¦ did I say that aloud?
Agata: Vengeance. I will take Saras killer down, even if it kills meā¦
So, what sport from the surface would you do,since football is unpopular?
Sport, eh? That would probably be cricket; I wasnāt a bad hand with the willow at school, and I can still pitch a googly, as the First Elevens of Benthic and Summerset could tell you!
Have you ever given thought to setting up a rival to Londonās great Instututions? A New University, for example, or a Carnival to compete with Mrs. Plentyās?
