"Hey guy- uh... I mean people, what sort of- jeez, what an awful way to start a question. What sort of shoes would you wear, if given the choice of any kind of shoe to wear? I think I just repeated myself..."

"Hey guy- uh... I mean people, what sort of- jeez, what an awful way to start a question. What sort of shoes would you wear, if given the choice of any kind of shoe to wear? I think I just repeated myself..." Good question! Let's see if my characters have any answers. First, we'll start with Lynwood. "I don't exactly like shoes. They don't feel comfortable to me, and I don't see the point in them at all. I had to wear high heels once, and it was terrible, I hated it the entire time I had them on. I much prefer to feel the ground underneath my feet. If given the choice, I would just stay as I am."Um, okay. Ohyeah? "Dress shoes seem to be all the rage amongst the high-ranks of the Marines, but honestly, I don't see why. They don't help do your job at all, and they just leave you constantly worrying about scuffin' them up while you're out at sea. Might as well just tape cash to your feet, if you ask me. I've always been a fan of the standard-issue Marine boots. They're decent enough, durable, and they do their job. If I was in charge, a good pair of sturdy boots would be required for all active sailors in the Marines."Fair enough. What about you, Morrison? While it is true that footwear can say much about a human, I don't wear shoes. I am a cat. And if you try to put any silly little booties on me, I will tear them apart with my claws. And then I will tear you apart.Oh. Alright. Camellia? "I wanna pair of little bootsies that I can give to Morrison.""Miss, I'm fairly sure the question was meant for what sort of shoes we would like to wear ourselves. Not what we want for others. For instance, for myself I would like a nice looking pair of black shoes that won't be ruined by scalding hot tea being spilled all over them.""But that's no fuuuun!"You look like you have something you wanna say, Winona. "As long as we're picking out shoes for other people, I would like to request something presentable for the Vice Admiral to wear. What he chooses to put on while on duty is one thing, but I'm sick of seeing him go into important meetings with his superiors while wearing the same outfit he had on when he was still a Lieutenant!""Ha! Better than that hoity toity crap you keep wasting your paychecks on, Captain.""What? The shoes I buy are practical, and fitting for a variety of situations. Maybe if you listened to me more, you would know that!"Uh, maybe opening it up to you guys wasn't such a great idea after all. Wanna close us out, Timo? "Sure thing, Daddy-O. I've always been a boot wearing kinda girl myself, but it's not the shoes themselves that make a person, Doll. It's the personality behind them that matters, dig? But if you can find me a cheap pair of hip running shoes, that'd be bitchin'..."Yeah, I think we're done. "But the footwear of the mighty Acis nation is..."WE'RE DONE.

Well, although a car isn't a ship, Hito has a problem overall with transportation.
As for Wolf, he can fly.

Okay, so I don't know a whole lot about cars or vehicles and such, but I'll see what I can do.
Lynwood: In a modern, realist setting, Lynwood would probably ride a bike or take public transportation everywhere, but if she had to use a car, it would be something environmentally friendly. Like a Prius.
Morrison: Is a cat.
Ohyeah: Something sturdy and reliable. A really simple pickup truck, or something similar.
Camellia: Is too young to drive.
Timo: Definitely would drive an old, used, classic sort of car, from the 60's preferably. The bumpier and more beat up, the better.
Finnegan: Something practical, nothing too fancy. Maybe a Civic?
Winona: She could probably afford a newer, more upscale, fancy car, with all that extra crap people have. Reliability matters more to her than appearances, though, and she certainly wouldn't get the most expensive thing on the market, but her car would still be distinctly better than average.
Perry: A Cadillac. Probably a slightly older model. But his primary mode of transportation would obviously be a sea plane.
Galateans: I honestly can't imagine them riding around on anything but horses. No, this is not because I don't wanna think of something for all of them. (sorry Galateans, for leaving you out again. Maybe next time...)

Shoes?
Mr. Dark would wear black boots with steel soles.
Shroud Demon would wear shoes with rocket boosters in them that let him fly around in a super awesome way. They would have a flame decal on them and everything.
Slythe would wear very comfortable and stylish shoes made out of human flesh silk.
Jackal: Black dress shoes, fancy but not ridiculous.
Cars?
Mr. Dark: A motorcycle. He would appreciate the more mobile aspects of that over a car. Plus, he's already wearing a lot of weather, so...yeah. Design, he would focus on something that focuses a little bit more on safety than speed. He would drive it expertly.
Shroud Demon: Also a motorcycle, because he thinks it would be really, really cool. It would be a long, painful trial for him to learn how to ride it, in which he would injure himself multiple times. But eventually he would get the hang of it and he would ride it around for fun and would always love to have others hang onto him and ride with him as well. Not the best driver, but once he gets the hang of it he probably won't crash.
Slythe: A golden limousine adorned with jewels. It would be surrounded with corporate security escorts. The inside has couches of velvet and the finest wine. He would also be able to do paperwork in there without the car being shaky.
Jackal: A very stylish, red Lamborghini with the top off.
Vezenore: A jeep.
Silver: She would not feel comfortable in such a confined space due to her size.

From what we've seen of the setting so far, both RP and cannon, where would your character most like to go for a vacation?
After considering that, where would your character most like to go for a vacation in the real world?
