What's your favorite kind of music? I ask because I'm still catching up on what I missed back home, but I like discovering new things.


Action

[ During the first week or so of drift, thanks to mostly palling around on his own in the last system, Steve Grant seems slightly more at ease in his own skin now. He's still not the most talkative guy around, but he's working on that. A little. Mostly he can be found on board his own ship or at work, but sometimes he'll go to the gym at odd hours or settle down in the art room with some paints or a pencil and blank sheets of paper.

Less often, but when he's most restless and can't sleep, he'll just walk around and make maps in his head of where his fellow passengers are allowed. And where they aren't. ]

Does it... have to be that old? [He looks puzzled.] Quite a few elven composers are still alive today, owing to their longevity I'm sure.

I suppose that makes sense. I won't be adding any bawdy tavern lyrics to my playing anytime soon, though.

To be considered classical? Where I come from, yes.

[ But ... ]

How long do your people live?

I suppose that makes sense from a human standpoint.

[He makes a thoughtful noise.]

Well... it can be anywhere from a few hundred to a thousand years. I'd say any longer than that is fairly unusual, but not unheard of.

That would explain the longevity of your musicians.

Is it just elves and humans in your world?

[A scoff.] Yes, well... they've nothing better to do than make pretty things and preen like birds.

There are far more than just humans and elves. Orcs, trolls, draenei, tauren, pandaren, gnomes, dwarves, Forsaken... I could go on. Even dragons have been known to walk among mortals in human form.

Does your world only have humans, then? That seems rather... lonely, all things considered.
