So, it looks as though I missed my Birthday through the castle turning me into a Whitelighter.

Not that it matters. Another year to add onto countless more.

Whoever sent me the cupcake... Thanks. That was kind.

[black_dog_bite]

Happened to you too, eh?

[demontobeloved]

Yep. Not that it matters too much. Birthdays are more or less the same when you're over a hundred.

[black_dog_bite]

Over a hundred?

[demontobeloved]

Yup. Tends to happen when you're immortal.

[black_dog_bite]

Makes plenty of sense.

I missed my birthday too. I'm not immortal or anything, but...

[demontobeloved]

Well, I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one.

[black_dog_bite]

It gets pretty busy around here sometimes, doesn't it?

[demontobeloved]

I think annoying is a more apt word.

[black_dog_bite]

You're right. I've been going easy on it.

[demontobeloved]

I'm sure we all make that mistake.

[black_dog_bite]

How long have you been stuck here?
I'm guessing it wasn't a hundred years.

[demontobeloved]

Nah. Just a few months.

[black_dog_bite]

It's a weird place to get sucked into, isn't it?

[demontobeloved]

I've seen weirder, if I'm honest. Ever been trapped inside a painting?

[black_dog_bite]

That does sound weird.
Glad to say I haven't.

[demontobeloved]

I haven't myself, but I know a few people who have.

[black_dog_bite]

Yeah, that castle is just a little too weird for me. It's why I'm moving out.

[demontobeloved]

We can move out?

[black_dog_bite]

So I've been led to believe. A few friends of mine have taken up residence outside the castle grounds. I think I'll follow their example.

[demontobeloved]

Hm. I dunno. I kinda like my room here.

Besides, I don't think that you can escape this place's influence.

[black_dog_bite]

Maybe not.

There's just something about this castle. Can't quite put my finger on it, though.

[demontobeloved]

Tell me about it. Things seem crazier than the underworld around here.

[black_dog_bite]

On the bright side, if you wanna leave the castle, there isn't much stopping you.

[demontobeloved]

I'd prefer to get a little distance if I leave this place.

[black_dog_bite]

How much distance you talking?
