[scatty is sitting in some little bistro close to times square. she's dressed in white, as per usual. something may seem a little off about her expression, though. it's almost as if her face is too angular. otherwise, she looks normal. she doesn't sound sad, when she speaks; merely as if she's stating fact. and is it just you, or does her hair seem

[... didn't see that coming] Huh.

Here I wouldn't have placed you a day over two thousand.

[spadassin]

[she's basically the spanish inquisition]

You're so kind.

[midnighting]

You know, I get that a lot.

2,520 not a birthday cake kind of year, I take it?

[spadassin]

I haven't had a birthday cake in centuries.

[will never mention that party scott threw for her last year gosh]

[Jack smiles a little, but there's some sadness in his voice. He's closing in on two years in this prison himself]

Happy birthday, Scathach. Here's to going home some day.

...You were in Lubyanka?

[spadassin]

Thank you.

I rescued someone from there, so yes.

permavid.

[ctu_savior]

You'll have to tell me about that sometime. I've heard a lot of stories about Lubyanka, and not a lot of them have happy endings.

[spadassin]

We escaped alive. That's happy enough.

[sanguinosi]

Very impressive! You certainly look young for someone over the two thousand mark.

permavid.

[spadassin]

[something of a smile]

One of the few benefits of not dying.

[sanguinosi]

Ah, I had a hunch that was the case. Can I ask how exactly you managed to escape the Grim Reaper for so many years? I have an interest in this sort of stuff.

[spadassin]

I'm afraid it's just how I am.

[trueltning_fury]

...and I thought a hundred and thirteen was bad.

permavid.

[spadassin]

You think I'm old?

[SENSITIVE]

[trueltning_fury]

[psh like he cares]

I didn't say that.

[spadassin]

[SO INSECURE]

It was implied.

[onnitrousoxide]

I would think that you would hardly notice two little years at this point.

[spadassin]

While the time itself is insignificant, the part about me being trapped is not.

[onnitrousoxide]

"Trapped" is quite the pessimistic way to view it.

[spadassin]

It's difficult not to be pessimistic when you've lived as long as I have.
