[ he smiles wide. ] That's exactly what it means. Never a dull moment, no matter where I choose to lay my head. [ half the time he's too drunk to remember where he is anyway so it all balances out. ]
Do you not sometimes wish for a dull moment? [ She does. Her life has been too exciting, too happening and not in the good way. Of course she shouldn't be surprised that someone might enjoy such things. ]
No. [ he answers in earnest. even when he's fighting for his life with his friends, at least he feels alive. sometimes days turn into weeks without him noticing around here. it's enough to get a guy depressed. ] Never.
[ he could have been much more boisterous about it as was his inclination, but she seems sad about something. or perhaps just remembering -- something he understands all too well. and so he keeps his voice soft, if still vehement. ]
You know what they say about idle hands, after all.
Oh, don't worry, sweetheart. I'm always game to make my own entertainment. [ he winks before taking a sip of coffee. it's basically stone cold now but he doesn't seem to mind. ]
[ he makes a thoughtful noise, mulling that over. ] Any project I can get my hands on, really. I made a buddy a leg over Christmas. I'm working with an Engineer augment on my ship to make it more efficient. Feel free to let me know if you have anything I could sink my teeth into.

From what I have heard so far, the Fleet can be rather exciting. Hopefully dull moments are few and far between for you, in that case.
