candothatWho: Pavel Chekov and you
Broadcast: Yes
Action: The Iskaulit or Bloodsport, if you like
When: Now
[voice]
I have a question to ask all of you, if I may--something that I have been thinking about.
[This thinking has nothing to do with the recent broadcast from the Interceptor Fleet. Nope. Not at all.]
What or where, to you, is home?
Is it a place? Is it people? Is it in the universe that you came from, or have you found a new home in your time away? If home is not here, would you return to it if you were granted the opportunity to do so?
What does home even mean?
I ask partially because I'm not certain of the answer for myself. I have thought of many different things as home: a country, a ship, a crew. There have been times, even, when I considered a single person home... but however I defined it, I was certain of it. I knew where it was, and I knew that it was where I belonged. That becomes difficult to maintain, you know, after several years in a place like this--the certainty of belonging, and the sense of home.
So I would like to know how you think of it. Maybe this question is too personal, but I hope that someone might humor me.
[action]
[In the mood for some in-person interaction? Pavel can be found in his usual haunts on the Iskaulit: in the library, jogging in the ship's more open areas, working (or drinking) at the Space Bar. Or come across him on the Bloodsport. That's where his quarters and his cat are, after all!]
