[Dastan is in the process of returning from the bathroom for his morning business. His wet hair is slicked back against his head and he's wearing his gray beater and dark brown trousers when he spots Olive. Remembering how their last encounter occurred, with the blonde being drunk, the prince glances around for some place to potentially hide. He notices her taping something against the wall and his curiosity gets the best of him.]
[Startled, Olive glances around stupidly for a moment before her eyes land on Dastan, and she beams at him, even though she's clearly a little embarrassed - she has foggy memories of the last time she ran into him.]
It's a poster for my birthday party on Friday! I hope you can make it!
(ooc: August 7th is cominggggg. Slowly but surely. XD)
[Dastan looks pleasantly surprised.]
This Friday?
[He subconsciously rubs his neck where the infection spread further from spending a good majority of the last week as Dark Prince. The influence of the Sand over him has grown.]
(ooc: Sorry I'm so late in tagging back, work devoured me. :c)
[Dastan looks a little surprised.]
You must have great wisdom. I was not even aware that people could live this long. The vizier is the oldest of the kingdom, but we believe he has survived by magic.

Mmm-hmm! This Friday.
[She laughs.]
I'm gonna be old~

[Dastan raises an eyebrow.]
How old?

[She looks around a little, embarrassed, even though her age is right there on the poster, and she lowers her voice.]
Thirty-one.

Thirty-one isn't that old in my time. People can easily live into their eighties and nineties because of, you know, medicine and stuff.

If you have such devices as the refrididgter then I can believe that medicine has also improved.
[He pauses.]
Is something wrong, Lady Olive?
Reply
[Yes.]
...okay, telling a girl that you're surprised she's still alive at thirty-one is a little off-putting.

It is a compliment where I hail from.

[Awwwwkwaaard.]
Well, thanks then, I guess. I'm glad to be alive too, especially since I'm so old now~
Reply
Yes, it is something to be glad for.
[Realizing he did indeed offend her and after wondering if he should apologize or not, furrows his brow.]

Not for a lack of trying on the Dahaka's part. I am not supposed to exist.
