One Answer For Two Questions
What makes you laugh?
If you could have dinner with any figure in history, who would it be and why?
The answer to both questions is the same: my brother.
We used to dine together often after I managed to get him assigned to my Command Carrier. We had seen each other only rarely in the years before then - Peacekeepers have limited controll over their movements - and before I finally had him aboard my ship I was worried that he did not wished for my presence as I had wished for his. He was very young when the recruiters came for us, and he had adjusted to our changed circumstances far better than I.
I need not have worried, at least about that. Tauvo could be happy anywhere, and he made me happy, too. I recall him joking that he only came to my quarters because captains got the best food, or ... the memories do not make me laugh now. Very little does.
There is nothing that I would not give to have him returned to me, were such things possible.
