For Zicari:

1. *presses his lips together a moment. Thinks carefully before answering* ‘I live in a village where emotions of happiness and public shows of love are discouraged. You are thought insolent or naive if you show a smile. Perhaps I’m jaded because of that.

I find that one should not base anything on emotions, whether from the head or heart. Though I do not believe either are invalid. The love I had for my wife; the pain I felt when Juku died and so many others… Thoughs feelings have worth and bearing. But one should not be ruled or base their life on feelings; for feelings are as changeable as the tide. They come and go.’

2. *his eyes and chest fill with a warmth, and he takes a deep breath.* ‘When my mother held me…’ He looks to the sky, eyes closing slightly. He can almost feel her arms around him. ‘And Kia…’ *he looks down and swallows hard* ‘I, I never felt, well. She, she was myself…We, we were one. We,.. confided everything; wept, prayed…laughed even.

When I held our newborn boy in one of my arms, and she leaned into the other? Her smile,.. her tears of joy? That would be the time I felt most surrounded by love.’ *His eyes are full of tears as he sees his son’s red face. So peaceful. His little fists…* Treasured memories…

3. *slightly stunned at the change in direction of the questions* ‘Um,’ (Stops himself before saying absolutely nowhere because there is no reason) ‘Perhaps, if there was a foreign leader who was willing to help our people, (without claiming our land for themselves). If this leader would get rid of the emperor and his militia, then leave our island alone… I would go to his country to bring him back with his army. Our people have been fighting,..and failing. We have no guns. I would bring help; but only if that help would not become a greater evil.’

For Lucky:

1. ‘Uh, I don’t know? Whichever I’m having at the moment I guess, so uh, both I guess.’

2. *snorts* ‘I, I don’t know? Geez, when did these things get so personal?’

3. ‘Ooh,’ *rubs his hands together,* ‘Where to go? Anywhere wi, no, Russia. I want to see all their crazy, well, architecture.’

 

New Questions:

1. How could you create more balance in your life?

2. How do you have fun?

3. How good are you at asking for help?
