I know this is probably a bit of a stupid question, but I'm actually mildly curious. And you know what they say: 'curiosity killed the cat'.

So, my birthday is tomorrow and I'm turning eighteen, finally. . . To be honest, birthdays aren't as big of a deal, which is why I want to know if there's anything special that people do for their eighteenth? Or just birthdays in general.

I'm interested in how other worlds celebrate, after all.

Thanks in advance!

Yeah. Hopefully he'll be a little be better about it whenever I get back though. Some stuff changed recently... err, "recently", that might make him more willing to just let me do something smaller.

[dereban]

Fingers crossed, I guess?

[justicedevil]

Yep.

Of course, it's kinda a moot point if I don't get home before my next birthday.

[dereban]

That's true.

Hopefully you do, though? I mean, if you want to go back home.

[justicedevil]

Yeah, I do want to go back home. But I'll just have to wait and see if that happens or if the government actually figures out how to get all of us home.

[ The chances of anyone at home getting her back had run out a long time ago though, so it would have to be something here. ]

[dereban]

Honestly, I have no trust that the government would figure it out.

[justicedevil]

Honestly, neither do I. But at the very least they have a better chance of it than I do.

[dereban]

Maybe.

I want to figure things out on my own merit, though.

[justicedevil]

... I mean, I can kinda get that, but I'm not sure how actually feasible that is when travel to other planets/dimensions/whatever this place actually is is concerned. Even if you do know something about how all of that works.

[dereban]

You never know until you try, honestly.

[justicedevil]

... I'm pretty sure that learning whatever magic or whatever insane physics that would be needed to create a way home home are far above me. No matter how hard I try.

... That, or I'll figure it out, but we'd have spent enough time here that it isn't even worth
it to leave.
