It's almost funny. Not in an amusing sense, I suppose, but still-the way time can seem so fast and so slow at the same time.

But it doesn't work that way, does it? I think the difference must be me.

It's certainly been an interesting three years.

Three years already...

Happy birthday, jiejie.

[jiejie = older sister]

[snowburned]

It's actually been a few days now. My old age must be catching up with me.

Thank you, Simon.

[pompous_today]

Three years is positively ancient by this place's standards.

You are welcome.

[Simon will bring her a cake tomorrow. It will look awful and lopsided and messy but still taste pretty good.]

[snowburned]

Are you calling me an old lady?

[She will share \o/]

[esoteric_rose]

Congratulations, Miss Kazahana.

[snowburned]

Thank you, Juliet. I suppose this makes me a senior citizen.

[esoteric_rose]

In a sense, but it confers more positivity than anything else in a place where time is so precious.

[snowburned]

That's a very nice way of looking at it.

[togana_keiri]

You've been here for that long?

[snowburned]

Yes. It surprises me, too, sometimes.

[togana_keiri]

I can't believe people have been here that long. I've barely been here a couple of months.

[snowburned]

I wouldn't have believed it myself in those first few months. But here I am, and here is everyone else.

[crownofsnow]

Yes it can. ...but we change along with it. Ha, it has. I think I'm...a bit younger than you are as far as residency here goes.

[snowburned]

That's certainly true.

I've also had an unfair advantage in the time you were gone.

[crownofsnow]

That was the sphere working against me, really. Still, I hope you're having an good day to mark the ocassion.

[snowburned]

The sphere is a better place with you here. Thank you-my day's been very nice so far.

[sting_to_death]

You're old.

[snowburned]

Very. I'm considering retirement.
