I do not want to hurt anyone, and I don't do it out of anger, it's simply like ballet for me. A way of movement, and being athletic." "Being that I'm a pacifist and all, does that make sense?"

Kenin thought about it for a moment, then nodded. "Yes, I think so. I do know that some kinds of fighting are used more as exercises. And sometimes it does look like they are fighting. Just some of the fighters start to look so angry...like they really want to kill someone...you aren't afraid of accidentally getting hurt?" A wrong move could be deadly..

But yeah Klingons like to get mad and try to hurt people, all I can do is do my best and try to keep out of their way." "Is there anything sports like that you do?"

Kenin laughed. "Well, I suppose you have a point there....since it is next to impossible to tell what mood they're in...they always look mad, even when they smile."

"Is there anything sports like that you do?"

"Haven't had time, really, not lately, anyway." Kenin shrugged, then grinned. "I did some dancing when I was youger...some ballet and step dancing. I kinda liked that. It made me feel free...I guess I could do it again now..." She looked down at her glass, then took a sip. "I have studies and things to catch up on, too...at least to make Zara and T'rralln happy..and Rael, too. I hate studying!"

Maybe you might try some sort of social sport. Does the boy you have a crush on like any sports? If he does maybe you could use that to get closer to him? Learn how to bowl or whatever he does." <Tag>

"He drives tanks," she giggled, "he's a Marine..." And it dawned on her she was talking about Patrick and not Rael. "I mean, uh, he...well, I know he does some of the fighting...like, martial arts, you know..." She shrugged. "I guess it wouldn't be bad to learn those, then I could take care of myself, too. He mostly likes weapons...pulse rifles, he has a sword he uses..." She sighed and rested her chin in her hands. "I don't know, I think I'd have to be older for him to care..."

"Everyone used to say that a Vulcan and a human mating were wrong, and yet nobody does today," Kentra said, "And if all that about experiences was true then I'd only date trills, other joined trills in fact. I've got lots more 'experience' than Joker but I'm still taken by him. It's about building new experiences with people, if you can offer him a lifetime of new experiences he has no reason to use that as an excuse."

Walking by with a tray of food Khoal caught the last bit of the conversation. He took an open seat and sat down. "I will take that challenge."

He took a bite of the bland Vulcan food before him. "First, there are still many who do say that interspecies breeding is wrong. Just because the Federation doesn't say it, or rather, that most in public don't downtalk it, doesn't make it right. Just as slavery exist to this day in many cultures. The Federation doesn't allow it. The Federation doesn't have royalty... but some cultures thrive with it."

He took another bite. "Second, age does matter. There is a difference between a 20 year old woman with a 500 hundred year old mind meld mating with a 20 or 40 year old. I'd even go as far to say that a 70 year old mating with a 20 year old joined child would be wrong. If age doesn't matter, why are you dating someone who is 10? Would that be ethical? People mature at different speeds. If she," he pointed with his spoon, "is still asking these questions, she is not ready to be involved with a seasoned adult."

Kenin blushed and shrugged. So far they had both been through a lot, although she wasn't sure that battles and fighting were the experiences she wanted. "I guess we could do that." She looked up as a man approached the table and scooted over to accommodate him. "It could work..." She would like for it to...

Walking by with a tray of food Khoal caught the last bit of the conversation. He took an open seat and sat down. "I will take that challenge."

"Oh?" Kenin grinned. "It will be good to hear a male point of view!"

He took a bite of the bland Vulcan food before him. "First, there are still many who do say that interspecies breeding is wrong. Just because the Federation doesn't say it, or rather, that most in public don't downtalk it, doesn't make it right. Just as slavery exist to this day in many cultures. The Federation doesn't allow it. The Federation doesn't have royalty... but some cultures thrive with it."

Frowning, Kenin tried to decide if he was agreeing or not. Of course, she didn't really care what the Federation had to say. They didn't care about things that were important to her, and if it was taboo to the Federation, all the more reason to pursue it!

He took another bite. "Second, age does matter. There is a difference between a 20 year old woman with a 500 hundred year old mind meld mating with a 20 or 40 year old.

People mature at different speeds. If she," he pointed with his spoon, "is still asking these questions, she is not ready to be involved with a seasoned adult."

"I am so!" Of course the indignant reply counteracted itself. "I'm grown up..." Well, almost...a year or two, or five! "And besides, we get along good, and he makes me tingle just to look at him, and we can talk and he's easy to be around...and isn't that what they say is a good way to start?" Her glare was defiant and defensive, another mark of immaturity that was struggling oh so hard to fall away so adulthood could take its place!

On:

Kentra looked at the Klingon and hissed at him in his own language, "Why are you trying to crush the girl's dreams? She is not a ten year old babe, and you know nothing of her. She strikes me as old enough, and her love is not exactly an ancient being."

Reverting to Federation Standard she shook her head, "So what you're saying is that since I am over a thousand years old, experiance wise, does that mean I'm only meant for other joined trills? Trills and joined trills often mate and there is very seldomly any adverse affects."

Khoal was mostly amused and it showed on his face. Replying in Klingon, "If her dreams are so fragile they should be crushed. Why are you setting her up to be destroyed? Experience is the sum of all lessons, and she is a child. She needs more before she can have a real relationship with an adult."

Then he switched back to standard. "But it is rude to speak around her. If she is an adult, treat her like one." He took a sip of his soup. "No, you didn't hear me. You are not 1000 years old, you are a 28 year old woman who is somewhat more mature than her peers. You have more memory, call it intense education then most your age, but you are not 1000 years old. This child, despite her attempts otherwise, is old beyond her.. 16, 17? years. But she is still young. I am surprised your experience hasn't taught you that. Perhaps it also makes you blind."

"And what is it that makes you so rude?" Kenin snapped, her jaw set in defiance. "You don't even know me..." But perhaps it was because he was so dead on even without knowing her that really had her ire up. "I killed a man..." As if that made her grown up....but she did fall silently sullen after that. The circumstance of fighting for your life was enough to make anyone grow up quickly.
