[Well, someone just glanced at the calender for the first time in a while.  And is shocked to discover the date.  After a bit, he picks up the phone.]

Apparently... I've been here over a year now.  I had no idea.  [A pause.]  I'm... not sure how I feel about this... Certainly seems longer in... this body.

So ah.  That's all then, I suppose.  Unless

Crazy, isn't it?

[weaponsparked]

It... really is.

[electrowhipit]

[ paaaause ] Have you even left your house lately?

[weaponsparked]

... Um. No. Not recently.

[electrowhipit]

[ sigh ] Go look on your porch.

[weaponsparked]

... If there's a milk there, I'm never forgiving you.

[But he'll put the phone down for a moment to go check that out.]

[electrowhipit]

[ He'll just wait then. ]

[weaponsparked]

[... he'll be back in a minute or so. And sounds... odd. Not upset - pleased, maybe.]

Why didn't you remind me? I... could have done something for you.

[electrowhipit]

You've left me more than my fair share of flowers, Sideswipe.

... Do you know those are called?

[weaponsparked]

... That was one time.

Um. No. Should I?

[electrowhipit]

But it was a lot of flowers.

There's no reason for you to know, I guess, but... Ah, I dunno. They're my favorite.

[weaponsparked]

Still.

... Go on. What are they?

[electrowhipit]

... [ he sounds a little embarrassed ] Forget-Me-Nots.

[weaponsparked]

...

Maybe I should give you a few back, then.

[electrowhipit]

You don't have to. I've got plenty.

[weaponsparked]

Ah, but do you have any from me?
