Hey, City. When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up?

Not everyone ends up doing what they wanted, or finding it as fulfilling as they thought they would once they get there.

He will change all of you into muskateers, he'll be the evil Cardinal and Chakotay can be the King of France. It'll be his parting gift.

That would actually be a dream come true. Don't temp them!!

Death.

[deuterium]

that could be arranged~

[fingersnapping]

Quite beautifully funny, my dear Katie, but I meant Death as in the creature. The Grim Reaper. It's a genuine fancy of mine; since I was a wee bright eyed thing and mortal beings had but barely come into existence.

You see, you find such extraordinarily ridiculous ways to die. The idea of having a quick chat about how stupid jumping in front of that charging elephant was, right on the moment of your passing--well, what could beat that?

such as...???

[lefthandedgenius]

I think I started with ballerina, moved on to Olympic figure skater, and then settled somewhere in the realm of astrophysicist.

Of course, now I want to be a starship captain.

[deuterium]

did the ballerina thing. didn't love it.

[lefthandedgenius]

LBR, ballet and horseback riding are like little girl gateway drugs. To something.

[deuterium]

to their mothers attempting to live vicariously through them regardless of their actual pursuits.
