Epics Discussion Day - Before the Fall

The original question is here.

I'm not answering all of it, nor am I answering with my usual thought, but I need to feel like I've done something. lol

What I think characters might miss from before the attacks

Kara - pyramid with good players who aren't afraid to play hard, opportunities for anonymous sex, being able to own somebody who thinks she's nothing but a dumb jock or a dumb fighter pilot, cigars (she'll run out sometime), people with no preconceived notions of who she is, Zak, pretty underwear, maybe dresses

Karl - his family, casual touch - hugs and cuddling on the couch

Bill - flying - though he does get to do some toward the end of the series, secondhand bookstores with undiscovered treasures

Laura - libraries, eager young children ready to learn, her toybox, which of course she didn't bring on this trip

Cally - dance raves, apples

Lee - law school libraries - even if he never really thought about being a lawyer, I can see him reading law books just for fun, underground bookstores with "banned" works available to read/borrow/buy, his favorite pair of socks, maybe cooking
