Soul's Refrain [Text]

[An anonymous text pops up on the vine. The handwriting is neat and steady print, but some of the letters are drawn a little oddly.]

Hello everyone. The queen brought us here to hook up, right? But seeing as there are only girls here, well, then that would obviously only work with lesbians. Therefore I am conducting an anonymous poll to try to understand the sexual preferences of our group as a whole.

Please respond back with your sexual preference as well as any notes or comments that have relevance. There is no need to reveal your identity if you don't want to. And, if you want to keep it simple and don't want any discussion of the matter, please just write a number.

Write "1" if you are a lesbian.
Write "2" if you are attracted to other girls but aren't totally sure.
Write "3" if you go for males and females.
Write "4" if there is a certain female you'd go for but not any other girls
Write "5" if you think you're not gay but aren't 100% sure
Write "6" if there's no way you'd be in to girls

Thank you. Hopefully this will help us understand who the Queen has brought here and why. [Because the author surely has no other motives.]

Interesting. Why don't we talk? Feel free to ask me anything.

What about people who aren't human, how do they factor into your survey?

[restlessdevil.livejournal.com]

As long as they're attracted to either males or females, or both, it's still good. People who aren't human are fine by me. Are you not human?

I'm a nation. The personification of one, I suppose you could say.

[restlessdevil.livejournal.com]

The personification of a nation? Wow, that's a new one to me. So... do all nations have personifications? Or is it just in your world? I've never met any in mine.

[rueandwolf.livejournal.com]

In my world every nation has one. I don't know if it would be the same in yours.

[restlessdevil.livejournal.com]

I haven't met any in my own world. Unless they appeared really recently or something.

This opens up a lot more interesting questions. Like, if something big changes in the nation, do you change, too? And do personifications of nations have romance? Do they romance each other? Can they fall in love with humans?

[rueandwolf.livejournal.com]

I've existed as long as the nation has--and even when it was a tribe, and not a nation.

I change with my people--so any changes in the nation are reflected in myself as well, yes. There are nations who will, both with other nations and with humans. I certainly would not associate as such with a human, though it's personal preference.

Wow, that's amazing. I keep learning that my viewpoint on things isn't exactly correct. I met a robot just as alive as any human. Now I've met a nation.

So you wouldn't go for romance for a human? Does it just feel weird, since you're... I dunno, comprised of so many?

[rueandwolf.livejournal.com]

In my world, a human woman isn't allowed to do many of the things I do. I can't exist on a human level and still lead my people into battle, for example.

[restlessdevil.livejournal.com]

Huh. That sounds a little confusing. So, romance with a normal human would be complicated...

[rueandwolf.livejournal.com]

It wouldn't really be worth it for me.
