[For no very specific reason at all, Katara is happy this late afternoon. The air is getting colder, and the very fact that it's nipping at her face is enough to make her smile. Add to that the glorious storm of yesterday, that it is still drizzling ( Read more... )

I'm so used to the desert, it'll be a change.

[Voice] derek_bliss September 25 2010, 03:44:56 UTC

Sounds like you had a lot of choices.

[Voice] markofthebrave September 25 2010, 04:10:24 UTC

[She smiles. That's the first time someone's had that reaction before. It makes her happy. Even though Katara grew up in what most people would view as near poverty and a step away from starving the whole time... she thought of her culture as rich.]

We did all right. Especially when the men were there to go whaling. We would use every part of the whale.

[Voice] derek_bliss September 25 2010, 16:28:07 UTC

That's good.

...Was it all seasonal?

[Voice] markofthebrave September 25 2010, 20:35:43 UTC

The whaling was. They'd leave right after the ice starts to break up in the spring. Tiger seals migrate too, but sometimes the men would go hunting them if we started to run out. [A quick smile.] The fish never went anywhere. We could even go ice fishing in winter.

[Which is mostly... what they had eaten for the past two years.]

[Voice] derek_bliss September 25 2010, 22:56:23 UTC

I've done ice fishing.

[Voice] markofthebrave September 25 2010, 23:40:44 UTC

Really? Where?

[Voice] derek_bliss September 26 2010, 00:59:35 UTC

Here, actually.

I was taught a while back, though, during a job that actually took me where there was lots of snow and the sun was only up for about four hours a day.

...'Bout froze to death.

[She grins at that.] It sounds like home. That's the hard thing about ice fishing - having to stay still. Did you remember to layer up?

[Voice] derek_bliss September 26 2010, 01:54:22 UTC

Believe me, they couldn't get me out of the base until I had every sweater I owned on under the coat. Dunno how you 'snow people' do it, really.

[Voice] markofthebrave September 26 2010, 02:33:52 UTC

You can't just layer one part of you, you know. You have to do the whole thing.

[Grin.] But maybe I'm just used to it.

[Voice] derek_bliss September 26 2010, 02:48:16 UTC

Well, yeah. But I only had two pairs of pants.

And that, too.

[Voice] markofthebrave September 26 2010, 03:23:38 UTC

So what were you doing where it was so cold?

[Voice] derek_bliss September 26 2010, 03:59:07 UTC

...I never told you what I did for a living?

[Voice] markofthebrave September 26 2010, 04:54:04 UTC

No, I don't remember hearing about that.

[Voice] derek_bliss September 26 2010, 05:01:38 UTC

...hmn.

I'm a vampire hunter back home.
