Entry 245; Day 6

[misterblackbird]

For once, the City, while still reducing me to my childhood again, wasn't so cruel about it as it sometimes is. I'll call it a Christmas gift and be grateful for it. I've seen that curse before, more than once, and, more than once, the day has not ended well. It does make one wonder about the childhoods of others in the City. Though, this time

Interesting, to say the least.

[misterblackbird]

I have to wonder what you're referring to.

[deadlyhealing]

Meeting others at different ages.

((ooc: I know you're hiatusing but backdated once you're back is fine if you'd like to! :>))

[misterblackbird]

I see. It would have been otherwise impossible.

[ooc: ♥ I might just do that. I want more Jez time!]

[deadlyhealing]

Indeed. It makes one wonder what could have been - but still, if I had only been slightly older. And to think, that we should ever have been able to meet with such good will.

((ooc: ♥! also, Jez doesn't realize that Cain's from before when he told him about his childhood.))

[misterblackbird]

Call it the innocence of childhood, if you like, if you can bring yourself to think such a thing.

[ooc: *slinks in all secret-like to post...then back to hiatus*]

[deadlyhealing]

I can full well bring myself to think such a thing, and at the same time, Earl, wonder whether you ever heed a word I say.

[misterblackbird]

I heed nothing you say.

[deadlyhealing]

And yet one would hope you would have the decency to remember.

No matter. It changes nothing.

[misterblackbird]

No, it changes absolutely nothing.

[deadlyhealing]

And even then, I was the lesser in spite of being the older.

Till our next meeting, then, Earl. Perhaps then it will mean something more to you.
