Hmmmmm. You know, I think that I've come to a realization. If I were to go by Earth time--and oh, these calculations are annoying--I believe that today would technically be my birthday. Sort of. Depends on if you count time when I was dead, how you factor in my time as a human, but!

904. I really am an old man. At the least, things are finally looking up. Very much so.

Awful little war, and apparently the only thing left to do was to blow up both races and planets involve. [Shrug.] Don't ask me, I wasn't there.

I lost count after the second millenium. It did not make much sense to keep track after that.

That's.. just horrible...

Where were you?

The end of the universe.

Like I was going to stick around for a fight that didn't concern me.

I am simply pointing out the differences in relative age. You are not at all 'old' by an angel's standards, though certainly so by a human's.

I hope that he does.

Are Earth years different to the years from your planet, Lord Saxon?

[floralprophecy.livejournal.com]

It wasn't just your planet that was destroyed?

But... what about your family and friends?

[Video]

[soundsofdrums.livejournal.com]

The enemy planet as well.

[He snorts.] Oh, please, I haven't had family and friends since I was a little child.

Do you want a round of applause for that observation?

Considering that a year is measured by the orbital length of a planet around its sun, yes, they're quite different. It's a bit difficult to explain the details.

[floralprophecy.livejournal.com]

I see.

... I'm sorry.

[soundsofdrums.livejournal.com]

I don't need nor want pity. It was a choice.

[Video]

[floralprophecy.livejournal.com]

I didn't mean to offend you... [just that that's just so sad...] What was that choice?

[Video]

[soundsofdrums.livejournal.com]

To go renegade from my race. They're a bunch of self-absorbed bores, really.

[Video]

[floralprophecy.livejournal.com]

You dislike them that much?

[capuletnomore]

Move around the sun?

[This is a new concept for her, give her a moment.]

How many months did your planet take to go around its sun?

[Video] KAT YOU KNOW BETTER THAN TO ASK ME THESE KINDS OF QUESTIONS /SOB, SIDESTEP

[soundsofdrums.livejournal.com]

The way Gallifrey works--worked--well. Really, it is difficult to explain. [Or more likely he just doesn't feel like it.]

[Video] I know better, but it's something she'd ask! /sobs

[capuletnomore]

[She'll nod and accept that. Things related to science are not ones she grasps easily.]

I would imagine so, particularly to one from my time. To think planets move around the sun, rather than the sun moving around the Earth....

[video] Damn you Doctor Whooooooo

[soundsofdrums.livejournal.com]

Ohhhh, right. Your time is quite the unenlightened one. Perhaps I ought to teach you some proper science sometime!

[video] You'd think it'd be something they'd have said/written at some point

[capuletnomore]

I would like that very much, Lord Saxon.

[She would take offense if he weren't merely pointing out a truth. And, to a Lord of Time, she imagined most times would seem unenlightened.]

[video] Knowing life, in one of the books or audios sob

[soundsofdrums.livejournal.com]

Soon, then. It could be quite fun!

[video] I'd look through my copy of Parkin's "A History", but I have no clue where to start

[capuletnomore]

I look forward to it, Lord Saxon.
