I think by an Earth calendar, today would be Father's Day.

To the other parents who are here... do you miss your children? Even if you wouldn't want them here.

I miss mine.

is a toddler someone who's only been alive for two years/

[tigerpoet]

That's right. They're bigger than babies, but not by much.

[terribletwos]

what if they don't look like that/

[tigerpoet]

I think other species besides humans grow at different speeds...

[terribletwos]

oh. that explains some things.

um, are you going to do anything for today/ since it sounds special.

[tigerpoet]

Some of my friends are coming to visit to keep me company.

[terribletwos]

that's good to hear.

i'm sorry you can't be with your family right now.

[tigerpoet]

Thank you. I appreciate the sentiment.

[terribletwos]

oh and sorry for all the questions. you probably have a lot on your mind right now.

[tigerpoet]

Don't worry about it. I thought I'd get a few questions about Father's Day from people who don't have it in their worlds.

[terribletwos]

i don't know if we have it either. i'd have to check with my friends.

[ Even though they're technically not from the same world anymore... ]

[tigerpoet]

I'm sure they'd be happy to answer other questions if you wanted.

[terribletwos]

other questions/

you mean like the stuff i asked you/

[ He's honestly never thought to ask his friends about that since it usually never comes up among them. ]

[tigerpoet]

Like those, yes. They might understand your situation better than I would.

[terribletwos]

i don't think it's a situation most people can really relate to.

[tigerpoet]

Perhaps not. But you could still ask them questions while you're hanging out.

[terribletwos]

yeah, you're probably right.

[ It's just hard sometimes... ]

[tigerpoet]

I'm sure they won't mind.

[terribletwos]

they're usually willing to explain things. though mostly about this place.

[tigerpoet]

That's good, but I think you should ask them more things. Especially since some of your questions might be considered rude by people who don't know you?

I didn't take offense, but it's normally very mean to imply that someone's kids aren't theirs.

[terribletwos]

sorry. i wasn't thinking like that. i thought it would be okay to ask you since you understand more about me. and you're good at explaining things.

[tigerpoet]

It's okay to ask me things. I'm just letting you know in case other people don't understand.

[terribletwos]

i'll remember that.

thanks for the advice.

[tigerpoet]

Any time.

You take care now.
