Finally 21.

[faithcb]

Happy Birthday to me.

Okay, the last few days have been way more than hectic. I don't even know where to start, but I suppose my birthday would be a good place. One of the more positive things that have happened.

What is with us and the giant entries that ate Tokyo? *laughs*

I'm sure I said this earlier, but I'm really glad your birthday was so great for you, Faith. *smiles* I guess it was completely silly of me to worry about you liking that necklace, hey?

Saturday was so terrible on so many levels, and I'm right there with you on the wiping it from existance. I'm sure someone could figure out how, but the fallout from actually doing that is so not worth it

[faithcb]

Well, I started writing... and then it ended up being longer than I thought it would be - and I think that part was just on my birthday. Though Saturday was the longest...

Again, it's a gorgeous necklace. I love it.

There's a fallout from wiping a day out of existance?

I kinda figured as much. I wouldn't want to put you in the middle of anything, really. We're a pretty complicated family, huh?

I'm not trying to push... and I'm sorry if when I was talkin' to you it felt like that. It's just - I didn't even know that I had this whole other family that actually existed, and dispite what I've heard about them being not the greatest (which I'm positive is true) there's still this part of me that is going, "It's still family, and it's my family." - Well, more blood relatives at the very least. But, I get it. There are things that happened - before my mother died... It's hard to even think about sometimes. And even worse? I've been thinking about it a lot lately.

But, really liking having a sister. Well, having you as a sister.

[_tara_maclay_]

Yeah...a lot happened this weekened...it just looks like even more written out on the screen like that.

I'm glad.

If the spell for some reason got reversed and people found out, yeah, there tends to be...

We really are...and yet in someways less complicated than we could be. What is that about?

I know you're not trying to push, you're just all curious. Unfortunately for me, it's bringing up stuff I'd rather forget happened, which is just kinda stressifying. But I do understand the curious. But yeah, as far as I'm conserned, by Dad? Donny? I may share dna with them...but they are not people that I want in my life, or anywhere near my wife or daughter.
If you ever need to talk...I'm here...

Right back at you, Faith, trust me *smiles.

[faithcb]

It really does look like a lot more when it's written on the screen.

And it was a good day for any of us. Taking a vote I'm sure that people would rather that it didn't exist.

I don't know about the less complicated. We're pretty darn complicated.

I get that. I really do. I mean, as much as I miss my mom sometimes? Having her around everybody... I mean, It just wouldn't be good in any way shape or form.

Talking might be good.

*smiles back*

[_tara_maclay_]

Not all of it was completely horrible was it? Besides...no one has any right to messing with people's memories like that.

Look at it this way Faith, 3/4 of us? We're family because we want to be. I think that's a step up from most people.

Yeah...exactly.

Okay. Just come find me when you want to then. Unless I'm at work...because that would be a bad time, really.

[faithcb]

Uh. The day really didn't have pleasant memories, but you know... if it was erased we would have never found out that we were sisters on Sunday. So, I guess I'd rather go through it.

Well, when you put it that way? Yeah, less complicated.

Uh, yeah, I don't think I'm going anywhere around the Magic Box. I don't really feel like being a punching bag.

[_tara_maclay_]

See, now you're looking at it in the right light. *smiles*

Thought so.

Can't really say I blame you for that one after what happened.

[faithcb]

Yeah... or a brighter light.

Again, rational.

I don't think anyone can.

[_tara_maclay_]

Either way...

*rolls eyes* Everyone has their moments.

Nope. I love An...but she was a little out of line, attacking you like that.

[faithcb]

Some of us have those moments more than others. *smirk*

Yeah. I mean, I guess the words I said, not the nicest way of putting things. I really don't like to be attacked like that.

[_tara_maclay_]

You'd think you'd be annoyed that you have such a rational older sister. *laughs*

Okay, so you both crossed a line. It shouldn't have happened either way though.

[faithcb]

Maybe later. Right now I'm just proud of her.

Exactly.

[_tara_maclay_]

You're proud of me? Why?

[faithcb]

I just am. *smiles*

[_tara_maclay_]

Okay, then. Not sure it makes sense, but okay. *smiles back*

[faithcb]

Maybe I'm just proud that you are my older sister?
