"Could be worse.." he said, yawning as he started tracing circles on his arm with his finger, unaware. Mustve been a habit. "So..how've you beed?" he asked, coughing into his elbow after asking.
-
Mortar: Eh, could be better. But for the most part okay

"That's good to hear, I suppose. Might I ask what brings you out on such a fine night?"
-
Mortar: Well, I couldn't sleep... You see, I have... *He hesitates before continuing* Insomnia, like I have for the past few months, so I like to relax and take a walk outside.
-
"Sounds...Interesting. Have you tried warm milk?" he asks, planning on going down the list of things that put him to sleep.
-
Mortar: Once, but apparently that just gives me a weird stomach thing, and... Mion: Let's not go into detail...
-
"Hmm..ever try counting sheep?" he asks, definitely going down the list now.
-
Mortar: Sheep? Last time I did that I just craved lamb chop that night
-
Q chuckled, knowing the feeling all too well. "Lets see..ever try a moose tranquilizer?"
-
*Mortar chuckles slightly* Don't you have more interesting things to talk about other than my sleep patterns?

He thinks for a moment checking his watch. "Well, at this hour I'm having kids in a hospital somewhere in Dojoville. Did I mention I'm from the future?"
-
Wait, you're having kids? You're from the future? THAT is strange
-
"Well, technically, yes to both, and the last thing as well." he said, shrugging. "My ship is under self-repair so I'm stuck here for the time."
-
Mortar: Well, that kinda makes sense? Why come here?
