[Day in the life?]

[miss_34_c]

*Here we have... Bulma? Standing near the lake and skipping stones*

This is not how I thought I'd spend my birthday...

*Bulma is nineteen today, but she doesn't look a day under... fifty. Can anyone cheer her up?*

*You think YOU look old? Take a look at me!*

Ah, is something the matter ma'am?

((Placeholder comment going to bed now!))

[miss_34_c]

But... You're. Eeewww! Where's the rest of you?

I'm really only nineteen, and very beautiful!

[moveurdeadfros]

Gone at sea, I'm afraid!

... And if you don't mind me saying so, how is that any different from your present state my lady?

[miss_34_c]

That's. Gods, that's horrible! Um. Are you a zombie?

B-because... Because I'm old now! A-and far from beautiful.

[moveurdeadfros]

Skeleton, madam. I realize it's quite vain of me to ask you, but please don't think of me as the same as them.

Ah, yes. One of this places numerous little 'surprises', no?

[miss_34_c]

Oh! I-I'm sorry! *looking closer* So you're just a skeleton? How're you talking, then? Do you eat? Where does the food go? *etc., etc., etc.*

Mmhm. I'm hoping this doesn't last very long.

[moveurdeadfros]

A-ah, that is all a very long story my lady, and perhaps it's telling would be better preserved for when you are in a more reserved state.

My lady, I truly understand your anguish. Father Time is a cruel companion, of that there is no doubt. But this shall pass, and in the end don't you think you'll come out of it that much richer than you were before?

[miss_34_c]

Okay, you're probably right. But I would like to hear it one day. So, what's your name?

Oh, yeah! I'm going to start working on cosmetics that'll slow the aging process. ...or at least, the appearance of it~

[moveurdeadfros]

Brook, my lady. 'Dead Bones' Brook! Charmed to make your acquaintance. *Kisses the ladys hand... without lips. Don't ask how, he just does.*

Well... that is one way, but I was refering to the fact that you now know that you will still be beautiful, even when you're older.

[miss_34_c]

I-it's nice to meet you, Brook. I'm Bulma Briefs~ *shivers just a little*

Oh. Y-you think I'm beautiful?

[moveurdeadfros]

Pleasure is all mine, I assure you.

Of course I do. It's obvious to anyone with eyes, and even those without!, that you have aged with grace and dignity. No woman who can still hold her head high, especially at such trying times, could ever be called ugly.

[miss_34_c]

*grins*

I-I have? Well, when you put it like that, I guess there isn't anything I should be ashamed of...

[moveurdeadfros]

Indeed. After all, 'nothing ever came from a life that was an easy one'. Perhaps you have a few wrinkles or gray hairs, but I am certain they come from events that made your life that much more interesting to live!

[miss_34_c]

I think you're right. From what I know of my future, it's going to be kind of busy!

[moveurdeadfros]

... You know your future, my lady? How?

[miss_34_c]

Ah... Um. I kind of forced it out of someone that's here from my future.

B-but I only know little bit about it!
