Runge: All day, every day.
Ramy: Not on this planet. Next.

Runge: A long time ago.

C - CRUSHING ON:
Runge: If it's female, mildly intelligent, and not fat, I'm all over it.
Ramy: As I said in Question A.
D - DRINK YOU LAST HAD:
Runge: Nosemja Sweet Ale.
Ramy: Water.
Runge: That's boring. You're boring, Ramy.

J - JUGGLE:
Runge: I juggle multiple tasks at once. Does that count?
Ramy: I guess I can. I haven't done it in a while.
K - KILLED SOMEONE:
Runge: All the time! Especially if their Dead-or-Alive title will grant the same profit from death as bringing them in alive.
Ramy: Yes. It's something I try not to dwell on. I am a bounty hunter, after all. Some jobs call for it, but I don't take pleasure in it. Unlike certain people.
Runge: Life is a video game, and I'm aiming for the high score.
Ramy: In terms of life sentences?
L - LONGEST CAR/SPACE RIDE:
Runge: It's about 5 days from here to Strinnethal. I went there for business once.
Ramy: I haven't been to very many places. I suppose the 3 day journey from Audonika to Riesel was the longest.
M - MILKSHAKE FLAVOR:
Runge: Muobimo. It's a fruit.
Ramy: Beskedar! Humans think it tastes like tangy chocolate.
Runge: Up until they die from cardiac arrest. Silly biochemical barriers.
Ramy: It's not poisonous to Humans...and aren't those words kinda big for you?
Runge: I pirated a dictionary program specifically for this moment.
Ramy: You mean one of those ever-present free dictionaries? Yar har indeed.
N - NUMBER OF SIBLINGS:
Runge: Yes.
Ramy: Next.
O - ONE WISH:
Runge: Unequaled wealth and women. That counts as one wish, right?
Ramy: Freedom from Riesel's filth, and no, Runge, it does not.
Runge: I have to pick only one? That sucks out loud. And your wish could technically entail death.
Ramy: Or a nice bath.
P - PERSON YOU CALLED LAST:
Runge: Some chick on a hotline.
Ramy: An Internet friend.
R - REASON TO SMILE:
Runge: Watching one of my enemies get humiliated.
Ramy: Internet friends! Especially when we meet up in real life!
Runge: I didn't know chat bots could meet you IRL.
Ramy: They're very real, unlike your sense of decency.
Runge: Birds can't fly with chains. I live free.
Ramy: Neither can bullets.

Runge: As in Human songs? No idea.

Spell your name without vowels:

Ramy: I dunno.
What color do you wear most?:
Runge: Either orange, blue, or camo.
Ramy: Greens and camo.
Least favorite color?:
Runge: PINK. Or things that are Ramy-colored.
Ramy: Probably red.
What are you listening to?:
Runge: Ramy's constant whining about my alleged immaturity "problem". Silly Ramy.
Ramy: The sound of my radio. I'm also trying to ignore the sound of logic telling me to kill Runge as soon as possible.
Runge: Are you sure that's not just your radio?
Ramy: I'm listening to progressive house, not gabber. The opposite flavor.
Are you happy with your life right now?:
Runge: As long as the flow of women and money keeps on, I'm happy.
Ramy: Not really.
Runge: Ramy is a knot of bitterness, so this was expected.
Ramy: Soon, Runge. Soon.
What is your favorite class in school?:
Runge: You mean "was"? I guess history. Hearing about wars was fun.
Ramy: Past tense, but yeah. Literature!
Who is your best friend?:
Runge: My guns. Or my wallet. Hard to choose.
Ramy: Best? I have a few "besties" online.
When do you start back at school/college?:
Runge: NEVER AGAIN.
Ramy: I did enough. Not going back.
Are you outgoing?:
Runge: A casanova such as myself cannot allow himself to be non-outgoing.
Ramy: Sort of.
Runge: Which is why you are still single.
Ramy: Refer to Question A.
Runge: That excuse is getting old.
Favorite pair of shoes?:
Runge: This is a girl question. Next.
Ramy: Eh, my army boots? I'm not picky. Next.
Can you dance?:
Runge: I tear up the rave floor on a regular basis.
Ramy: I'm okay at it. I guess it happens naturally when your business partner drags you to clubs incessantly.
Runge: You're welcome.
Can you tie a cherry stem with your mouth?:
Runge: What's a cherry?
Ramy: No idea.
Can you whistle?:
Runge: Yes. It's handy when I see physical manifestations of beauty.
Ramy: Yes, but I don't do it often. Runge gives me weird looks.
Runge: Because it's awkward when you do it.
Ramy: No it isn't.
Write with both hands?:
Runge: Nope.
Ramy: No.
Cross your eyes?:
Runge: What.
Ramy: Yes...?
Walk with your toes curled?:
Runge: Next.
Ramy: Only when I'm mad at Runge.
THE DO'S
Do you believe there is life on other planets?:
Runge: That's a very good question. Maybe I should ask Sig.
Ramy: If you're talking about intelligent life, I'm still waiting to see it.
Do you believe in miracles?:
Runge: It's a miracle that Ramy is still single. Wait, no it's not. Never mind.
Ramy: The fact that Runge is still alive is a testament that miracles exist. I should have killed him thousands of times by now.
Do you believe in magic?:
Runge: Ramy's state of being single is magic. Like a curse or something.
Ramy: Pardon me while I go grab my magical machete. It has the ability to take someone's blood from their body and put it somewhere else.
Love at first sight?:
Runge: "Love" is a silly word. I much prefer "lust".
Ramy: True love? I've seen it happen before. I know a couple who got married after a week and have stayed together for over 100 years. Rare, though!
Do you believe in Santa?:
Runge: Isn't that some sort of hideous abomination mentioned in ancient Earth lore? Doesn't he visit each year to assault cities and consume supplies?
Ramy: I think Runge might be right on that one.
Runge: I agree with your agreement.
Do you know how to swim?:
Runge: Could getting smashed at a bar count as swimming? It feels like it.
Ramy: Of course. Been a while, though.
Do you like roller coasters?:
Runge: Amusement parks? They're not as thrilling as shooting someone down in a starship. THAT is a real ride.
Ramy: They're okay, although I get that thrill all the time in our ship.
Do you think you could handle the stuff they eat on those reality shows?:
Runge: Yes. Yes I could.
Ramy: You meant those gross-out shows? Ha ha, NO.
THE HAVES
Have you ever been on a plane?:
Runge: If you're talking about a vehicle that stays in the air with only a propellor and wings, no.
Ramy: Same. Only starships.
Have you ever asked someone out?:
Runge: All the time.
Ramy: I asked a couple guys out in high school. People occasionally ask me out in clubs, but they're usually drunk.
Runge: Sounds about right.
Ramy: Shut up.
Have you ever been asked out by someone?:
Runge: All the time.
Ramy: See above.
Have you ever been to the ocean?:
Runge: Only an ocean of drinks and women. That is my creed. That is my life.
Ramy: Yes.
Have you ever painted your nails?:
Runge: I have claws, and no.
Ramy: I did when I was 12 or so. Haven't done it in a looong time.
THE WHATS
What is the temperature outside?:
Runge: Dunno. Don't care.
Ramy: It gets chilly at this depth. Not a lot of sunlight reaches here. That's what we get for moving to a base that's situated in the middle of a 5-mile-high building that's completely surrounded by other 5-mile-high buildings.
What radio station do you listen to?:
Runge: What's radio? I get all of my music from the Internet.
Ramy: One with soft techy tunes. Technically, the radio I have gets signals from our Internet connection. That, in turn, comes from the subspace relay in our ship. Actual radio signals don't reach this depth. Too much interferance.
What was the last restaurant you ate at?:
Runge: Cheerful Fish Thug.
Ramy: Burger Entropy.
What was the last thing you bought?:
Runge: A very special performance.
Ramy: A funny t-shirt from a website.
What was the last thing on TV you watched?:
Runge: [REDACTED]. And one of those Human cartoons that makes no sense but is funny regardless.
Ramy: A program about the history of Riesel. It reminds me of how much I want off this rock.
THE WHOS WHO LIVE IN WHOVILLE
Who was the last person you IM'd?:
Runge: One of my bar buddies. He still owes me 3 jucals.
Ramy: A friend.
Who was the last person you took a picture of:
Runge: The last guy I smoked. He was in a hilarious pose. That one went on the fridge.
Ramy: Another friend.
Runge: Much wit. Very laugh.
Ramy: Drunk already?
Runge: No. Your responses are dull. Say better stuff.
Ramy: I'm not a fountain of comedic word blunders like you.
Runge: There we go.
Who was the last person you said I love you to?:
Runge: Again, that word carries little meaning to me.
Ramy: Not sure I've ever told anyone that.
CRYING SECTION
Ever really cried your heart out?:
Runge: I'm a man, so no.
Ramy: Yes...
Ever cried yourself to sleep?:
Runge: See above.
Ramy: Next question...
Ever cried on your friend's shoulder?:
Runge: ...
Ramy: Next.
Ever cried over the opposite sex?:
Runge:
Ramy:
Do you cry when you get an injury?:
Runge: Okay, seriously?
Ramy: No.
Do certain songs make you cry?:
Runge: COME. ON.
Ramy: There have been a few. I avoid them.
HAPPY SECTION
What is your current hair color?:
Runge: Dark blue, naturally.
Ramy: Two shades of brown, striped vertically. Natural as well.
CURRENTLY WEARING
Shoes?:
Runge: That was an awfully short HAPPY section. The person who wrote this is definitely from Riesel. I'm wearing combat boots, but sometimes I wear sandals. I apply both to people's backsides regularly.
Ramy: Army boots. When I'm lazing about the base, I wear house slippers.
Runge: Do you also apply them to people's backsides?
Ramy: Ye-...well...would you shut up already?
Necklaces?:
Runge: Nupe.
Ramy: No.
Underwear?:
Runge: Optional.
Ramy: Good grief, Runge. Yeah, not answering that.
Runge: You mean "good brief," right?
IN A GIRL
Favorite eye color:
Runge: Blue. It reminds me of myself.
Ramy: In a GUY, it doesn't matter much.
Short or long hair:
Runge: As long as she's hot.
Ramy: Meh.
Height:
Runge: No short chicks, please.
Ramy: I'd...like him to be at least my height.
HAVE YOU EVER
Been to jail:
Runge: Once or twice.
Ramy: Yes...
Mooned someone:
Runge: Awww, good times.
Ramy: NO.
Thought about suicide:
Runge: Certain drugs are worse than others.
Ramy: Not really.
Laughed so hard you cried:
Runge: Oh yes, usually at someone else's expense.
Ramy: Quite a few times.
Cried in school:
Runge: What did I say before? I AM A GUY.
Ramy: Maybe once.
Thrown up in a store:
Runge: Again, good times.
Ramy: No.
Wanted to be a model:
Runge: With a body like this, I'd have to say I've already achieved bragging rights for that.
Ramy: Never cared for it.
Runge: You'll never get there if you keep raiding the buffets like you do.
Ramy: Hey, being a model on Riesel tends to attract the perverts. I don't like being objectified, either.
Runge: Excuses, excuses.
Ramy: I will smother you.
Seen a dead body:
Runge: Yep. Made'em that way, too!
Ramy: Too many.
Been on drugs:
Runge: What's this past tense you're using?
Ramy: ...A few times, when I was a teen.
Gone skinny dipping:
Runge: Gooooood times.
Ramy: No.
THIS OR THAT
Summer or Winter:
Runge: Most beaches are closed during Winter. I'll say Summer.
Ramy: Burning heat or bitter cold? Probably Winter.
Burgers or Pizza:
Runge: Hmm. Pizza Chairman has some pretty good pizzas. Hard to beat that.
Ramy: I like both, actually, but I prefer burgers. Especially spicy burgers.
Single or Group Dates:
Runge: The more ladies, the better.
Ramy: I'll think on this after I move away from the sexual predator capital of the galaxy. You know, Riesel.
Meat or Veggies:
Runge: The first is good with gravy. The second is good for animals.
Ramy: Both!
Runge: There's a lesson to be learned here, folks.
Ramy: Eh?
Runge: You walked right into that one.
Ramy: Please. I'd still be of superior intellect as a pack animal.
TV or Movie:
Runge: I watch both on my computer regularly.
Ramy: Same...although to actually answer the question, I prefer movies since they're usually higher-quality. Especially the high-budget fantasy movies with cool graphics for magic stuff.
THE CONCLUSION
How was the questionnaire?
Runge: I was looking at the clock the entire time.
Ramy: It was...something.
Tag 4 other people!
Runge: No.
Ramy: I tag everyone reading this. Simple enough.
Runge: Are you calling the readers simple?
Ramy: Only you.
