Anonymous: You have all kinds of grammatical errors in your answers today, Douglas. Are you feeling well?

Oh? Like what, for example?

Anonymous: " Why don’t you try actually asking one of the lovebirds, themselves?" I have tried asking Carolyn, she won't give. I guess you've gotta be a sky god level trickster to win anything off her. Herc kinda scares me.

Oh, well, that’s a shame

I, of course, know absolutely nothing about their ‘love life’. Really, I have far more important things to worry about. 

There’s some paint drying on my walls that is begging to be watched, for example.

Oh, hilarity. Truly your wit is incomparable.

No. I’m not a ‘Cat Person’.

Anonymous: Have you ever considered growing a beautiful moustache?

I did consider it, once, but I decided that I cut a dashing enough figure, as is.

One who is frightfully dim and, preferably, ageusic.

Anonymous: Have Carolyn and Herc gone on any dates since the one you ... surprise!serenaded? I'm asking b/c you're a *Sky God*, you know things. You must know.

Oh, probably.

To be quite honest with you, dear Anon, I don’t much care. Why don’t you try actually asking one of the lovebirds, themselves?

linguini17: Do you ever enjoy flying for its own sake?

Oh, occasionally. Rather difficult to when I’m being bothered by persnickety captains and moronic cabin boys, though.

amaya-krb: You know, some people like the shy, awkward, and adorkable types.

Do they? Good Lord, how strange.

I do hope you’re not trying to attach those descriptors to Martin. ‘Awkward’ I will grant you but I must contest ‘shy’; the man manages to assert himself wherever possible.

I have no idea what ‘adorkable’ is but unless it means ‘uptight, snappish and fastidious’ then I don’t think it will apply to him either.

At the moment, I have my nose rather firmly stuck between the pages of Shelley’s Frankenstein. What about you, my dear?
