Since all of you people are here now, maybe you can help me. Birthday presents ideas for when you're stuck in a place that doesn't require money. Go.

[The doors to All Passions are wide open, and Shiki is bustling about dressing mannequins in Christmas sweaters. She's keeping an eye on the people that the Malnosso have ever-so-kindly dropped into their little village, so feel free to come up and say hi or troll bug her.]

Not at all.

[so_shik]

How can you not know?

[reap-you-twice.livejournal.com]

Because it's just not famous enough for word to reach my little corner of Japan, perhaps?

[so_shik]

Guess that depends on where you're actually from.

[reap-you-twice.livejournal.com]

Yoshiwara. And Shibuya is...?

[so_shik]

...part of Tokyo.

[reap-you-twice.livejournal.com]

Hmm. I haven't heard of there, either.

[so_shik]

...I should have seen that coming, but I still can't believe it.

[reap-you-twice.livejournal.com]

Why not? Did you think it'd be more famous?

[so_shik]

It is in our time. So you must be really old.

[reap-you-twice.livejournal.com]

Not particularly, actually. [ 90 is NOT OLD thank you. ]

[so_shik]

Guess that depends on what you count as old. So?

[reap-you-twice.livejournal.com]

... So?

[so_shik]

So. Age. What is it?

[reap-you-twice.livejournal.com]

A number which denotes the amount of years since the date of your birth.

[so_shik]

You know, you're as big of an ass as the normal Joshua.

[reap-you-twice.livejournal.com]

You're aware that I'm still not Joshua, correct?

[so_shik]

Very, but you're a lot like him anyway.

[reap-you-twice.livejournal.com]

Duly noted. I fail to see how my age has anything to do with the towns I've heard of, anyway.

[so_shik]

They might be called something else in your time, or they haven't been created yet. There's a lot of reasons.

[reap-you-twice.livejournal.com]

... How old do you expect me to be?

[so_shik]

I think it depends on what year you were born in.

[reap-you-twice.livejournal.com]

So even if I told you a number, it would mean nothing?

[so_shik]

In this case, you'd have to help me out with two numbers.

[reap-you-twice.livejournal.com]

Kansei 12.

[ Which would make him 25. ]
