*Feels Old*

Edging closer to sixty.

*The cake fairy strikes his office again leaving her favorite teacher a birthday cake that had taken her four attempts, the last of which had fallen apart on the way to his office, and one rather large minor burn on her arm when she dropped the cake pan getting attempt number two out of the oven, but it had been worth it. She was quite proud of the cake. She just hoped Admiral Pike appreciated it.*

*he does, and one of these days he's going to figure out who is doing this*

[cadet_amara]

*Nope. She's a very sneaky cadet. Though I do imagine his office has some type of surveillance system.... and she's sneaky but not that sneaky.*

[ He is just going to roll his eyes at you and would bring up life spans for healthy men but doesn't want to get punched so he settles for.]

You're not old.

[no_dryer_box]

Old enough.

[fuck_mars]

[ He makes a dismissive sound.] Younger then the other Admirals and healthy as a horse. No angsting about your birthday. We got enough of that with Jim. [ He points out.]

[owns_the_chair]

And I'm sure sixty won't even know what hit it, sir. [This would be Jim trying to be helpful. And possibly failing at it. Birthdays have never really been his strong suit when they don't involve partying and copious amounts of alcohol, but he tries.]

[no_dryer_box]

I'm sure, it does have some time to see me coming.

[owns_the_chair]

Then it'll have plenty of chance to run off with its tail between its legs. I'm sure it's not everyday it sees a 'Fleet Admiral such as yourself.

[rightawaydoctor]

Sixty what, sir? [Age isn't an immediate answer coming to her mind here.]

[no_dryer_box]

Years old.

[rightawaydoctor]

[She grinned.] Really? Don't look a day over thirty-five to me.

[romulanarsekick]

Never, sir! Not a day over thirty, surely.

[no_dryer_box]

*grins, amused*

I could hug you right now.

[romulanarsekick]

Ah, hug away, sir? We thirty-year-olds ought to stick together.
