Was my sarcasm lost?

You said 'prefer', so yes.

This is how you get to a 13-page AMA.

Who taught you to play the piano?

Es-tu sûr?

This is when I realize my German humor needs more set-up.

Who taught you to play the piano?

A neighbor, Amy Ito, was a piano teacher. Because I couldn't really play outside with other kids, and she didn't like her kids playing outside, she'd help my mother watch me. I learned the piano from the age of 4, and basically took lessons for the next 10 years or so. I remember visiting her a few summers back, still severely impressed with her talent. Watching her small hands glide across those keys, hitting those octave jumps -- incredible.

What happened to Phoenix, Chase?

What happened to Phoenix, Chase?

OOC for this:
Phoenix (in my case) is a Gyrfalcon. Prices for one can fetch close to $300,000 USD in Qatar. So, long story short, the bird was a loan from a friend. She had to be released, eventually.

It started in Yemen, (with a case handled by Ashraq, Mikal's brother) and friendship with an Emirati falconer. Some time after that case, Chase discovered a love for falconry, or really, a certain gyrfalcon.

Phoenix came into Chase's care for about three years. As part of rehabilitation, she was released each year after molting. The first year, she returned to his glove only three days later. The second year, she returned after twelve days. (Should be noted that birds returning are rare, but does happen.) The third year, she did not return. Chase waited around for about three weeks before heading back to San Fracisco. It is assumed that she is now wild.

If you could meet any fictional person who would you meet?

 

[Nevon]

Sir, honest question: With everything you've experienced, all the 21+, would you instantly forget all of them for the memory of one?

I can't think of anyone 'fictional' I'd like to meet... but if we're going on technically non-existing people, then...

Back in 1985, three deep-cover agents (CIA/MI6) executed by the KGB. No one knows yet who gave away their cover, I wouldn't mind finding out either. Come to think of it... maybe @Seldavia would be interested.

No.

Nevon, don't be naive.
