[Dictated softly]

I suppose turning thirty isn't as scary as I thought it would be. Hmm!

(ooc: Happy birthday, Delysia. :D)

Why would it be scary?

misslafosse August 21 2009, 05:01:20 UTC

It means I'm nearing mid-life, and I'm certainly not ready for that. [a deep breath] But I must be brave. It isn't as if I have the power to stop time, you know.

reddinofiremon August 21 2009, 05:02:57 UTC

Mrr? I thought you didn't age here.

misslafosse August 21 2009, 06:28:59 UTC

I suppose you don't really, but it's still my birthday all the same.

30 isn't so bad, as far as numbers go. It has bilateral symmetry, after all.

misslafosse August 21 2009, 05:01:56 UTC

[...and she's got nothing.]

Come again?

luv8vul August 21 2009, 18:42:37 UTC

It's symmetrical, if divided horizontally.

30

misslafosse August 23 2009, 04:36:34 UTC

Oh. [She tilts her head at it and sees his point.]

It can also be divided evenly, can't it? Thirty divided by 2 is fifteen.

mylifeisntajoke August 21 2009, 05:40:05 UTC

Thirty-one will be a lot scarier.

Happy birthday!

misslafosse August 21 2009, 06:27:46 UTC

Don't go saying that! I just accepted being thirty!

[There would be a chuckle here if it were possible, so have an amused snort instead. And some splotchy, elegant, inky writing.

Thirty is not so bad. You're still young, after all.]

misslafosse August 21 2009, 07:00:56 UTC

[Ah, someone older than her, perhaps? She'll feel a little better now knowing that.]

Well thank you. And I do still look young. Younger than thirty, I should say.

victoryhowl August 21 2009, 07:10:55 UTC

[If only she knew how much older.

The wolf gives a light whuff of response.

You are quite welcome. Ah? Is that so? Then what a lucky woman you must be to be able to retain your beauty and hope that you will keep looking as such in the passing years. A light trail of ink extends from the period before stopping. She hopes that comes off as a compliment...]

misslafosse August 21 2009, 07:16:40 UTC

[Delysia knows a compliment when she sees one, and that gets a nice little giggle out of her.]

I certainly hope so, too. I do try my best to keep my appearance in order. It's very important, you know.

Good to see your keeping your part of the deal.

misslafosse August 23 2009, 04:37:30 UTC

If I want to see you keep up your end of the bargain, I have to keep mine.

femininecharms August 23 2009, 08:51:43 UTC

Yep. Like you said, I strike a hard bargain.
