I'd been here about a month, and I spoke with someone else who had... company. Of a sort. Though his wasn't blue. It was the first time I've met someone else who had anything similar, and it was when I realized, beyond the obvious, that I was here.
Realizing I was free and that I wasn't the only one with someone else sharing my body, yes. And while Justice desires to get back, to carry on with our task... I don't. I know it will happen. But it's not something I'll seek out, or try to speed up.
[He wants to think there's an unspoken message there, so yeah, going with that. Mission accomplished?]
Anyway... we'll do something for your birthday, and you're getting more than cake. Cake's a standard. I'll figure out something you don't know you want yet.

Actually, okay, yeah. I can see how it might be these days. You really don't wanna go home, do you?

Date: 2013-01-11 07:52 am (UTC)So. What do you want for your birthday?
[Voice]
Date: 2013-01-11 08:19 am (UTC)[Right. You got something on birthdays. He hadn't been thinking that far ahead. There's a bit of smile in his voice when he answers.]
You get a cake, don't you? I'd... I'd like a cake.
[It's a stupid want, he knows it, but he can't actually remember getting a cake.]
[Voice]
Date: 2013-01-11 09:43 pm (UTC)[Mental note: ask Buffy and/or Caroline about cakes, preferably not on the same day you need it. They might get cranky.
Especially Buffy.]
You get presents, too. Stuff you want. And a wish when you huff out the cake candles. Dunno how good those wishes are, but eh.
[Every one counts.]
[Voice]
Date: 2013-01-12 05:15 am (UTC)[There's a pause; he's looking around.]
I've got everything I need. And vambraces on top of that.
[All he wants is something he can't ask - for the Door to not take more of those he cares about.]

Date: 2013-01-13 09:47 am (UTC)You like 'em, then? They fit alright... don't need adjustments?
[Voice]
Date: 2013-01-13 09:50 am (UTC)They fit very well, and I'm not the only one that likes them. And that's a first.

Date: 2013-01-14 06:42 am (UTC)You don't have to. But... thank you. That you're even thinking about it.
