Y'know, something's been bugging me. When I got here a while ago, I was... older. Taller 'n all that, definitely more 'n I should've been. Then 'bout a year ago [ to the day, as a matter of fact ] I turned back to normal. Dunno why.

That ever happen to anybody else here? Or-'ve you ever heard 'bout it?

[Curiously:] ...No.

[NOT HERE: Earlier, a package would have been delivered to the shelter, addressed to Lowell. Inside would have been a whimsically-wrapped gift that, when unwrapped, would prove to be a sports jersey with a soccer ball on the front and LOWELL 64 on the back. It is yellow with blue accents.]

Oh. [ Bit of a sigh. ] Wonder... if it was just me?

[ Doctor, that is incredibly sweet of you. While not his school's color or his old number, it still brings back memories. They're tinged with regret like all the rest, yet some of the happier ones he could think of. Definitely something he'll be keeping close by (even if he's not sure who could have sent it, because who here actually knows his birthday?). ]

Maybe. Could've been a temporal glitch, could've been another magic book. You say it just - happened?

Mhmm. Just like that. Don't think it was a book. [ Beat. ] Temporal glitch?

I dunno. Coulda been. Coulda been a million things, although if it fixed itself I wouldn't worry. Not unless it happens again.

Happy birthday, by the way.

Little birdie told me through the grapevine. Sent you a present, hope you got it in time.

... Lance? [ Either that or Chivy... but he's pretty sure nobody else knows about his birthday. ]

Was-was that you? The jersey?

[If this were video you'd be able to see him doing a smirk at Lance's name. But... it isn't.]

Fun fact about the number 64. It's the atomic number for Gadolinium, an element that exhibits ferromagnetic properties at temperatures under two-ninty-three-point-four degrees Kelvin. Or twenty Centigrade. Or sixty-eight Fahrenheit. In other words, it's a magnet.

[ At least he didn't use 'Wataru'? ]

... the number's a magnet?

[ He shouldn't be amused by that, but he kind of is. ]

Atomic number for a magnet. Small bit of difference, but yeah, more or less.

That's kinda cool.

Hoped you'd think so. Wear it in good health.
