028. [dictated + written]
[drums his fingers his table, open journal in front of him. He's just noticed the date and well... there's a couple things on his mind. It feels a little awkward to ask though...]
Soooooooooo...
[...well, no stopping now]
Is the norm here to, y'know... still count birthdays?
Like I know that nobody ages and all. So should someone even bother? Is it common for people to count it anyway? I guess it don't matter much when you're an adult and you age so much slower anyway but still...
[pauses-- then adds]
N-Not that it's my birthday or anything. [it's not... for another week and a half] I'm just wondering if there's even a point in saying I'm a year older when it does come around, you know?
Not to mention... well, I'm sure the ladies understand this part, and maybe some of the fellas; none of you really want to get that much closer to the big three-oh, right? ...Or, uh, the big four-oh, I guess? In some cases?
Not that I'm going to be 30 or anything! [he's not... for another year] But it's just a thought!
[this next part is DOUBLE the awkward, so he's going to switch over to writing on a new page...]
[Filtered away from bad guys, anyone who would tell bad guys, First Gens too why not?, anyone who knows his secrets, and anyone who doesn't like him for extra measure (yes he is being a little paranoid about this)]
out of curiosity what use would a former detective/police officer be in a place like this
[mmmm... just to be sure...]
asking for a friend
[he's not]
