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.

[And have a grinning Juliet on your feed, Master.]

Happy Birthday, Lord Saxon! It is most exciting. Would that I could make a cake or other such treat for you.

[As it is, you'll probably find something knit/sewn on your doorstep within the next few days, because she enjoys giving gifts.]

It's quite fine; the thought is what counts, after all.

How do you intend to celebrate? How do Lords of Time celebrate birthdays?

I haven't celebrated a birthday in centuries--we don't often really celebrate birthdays at all, really. With such long lives, it all becomes a bit of a blur. Plenty of Time Lords don't even remember their own birthdays.

....

You are 904 years old?

[vidja]

[soundsofdrums.livejournal.com]

Correct, in your Earth years.

[vidja]

[012420.livejournal.com]

Wow. That is really old. I would have expected you to look more wrinkly or something, ahaha.

[Really though, you look sorta young. How did you manage it? Lots if staring incoming.]

Amusingly enough, this is actually one of my younger looking regenerations. My last one looked quite a bit older, but then again, I was stuck as a human for some time in that one.

[Huh. About the same age as Chibiusa. Who, oddly enough, is Usagi's daughter, which says something about her.

Far more important, of course, is the birthday itself.]

Happy Birthday! Are you doing something special?

[Video]

[soundsofdrums.livejournal.com]

Unlikely, unless my dear Doctor decides to force something on me.

[buntails.livejournal.com]

No way! You can't just let a birthday go without doing something! What sort of present do you want?

[Video]

[soundsofdrums.livejournal.com]

Considering that I now have what I've been wanting for quite some time, there's little else, really.

Happy birthday then, Master. [He smirks slightly.] You're ancient now~.

[Video]

[soundsofdrums.livejournal.com]

Oh, please. We're the same age.

[Video]

[hideyosammich.livejournal.com]

So? You're still old.

[Video]

[soundsofdrums.livejournal.com]

Yes. Yes, I am, and dear Rassilon do I feel it sometimes. Still, I do feel a bit invigorated now.

To how old does your species normally live?

[Video]

[soundsofdrums.livejournal.com]

There's no real average. Thirteen regenerations--for the most part--and how long depends on just how long you spend in each.

[Video]

[wingsandwill.livejournal.com]

Thirteen regenerations, for a total of fourteen lives?

If you go by Earth time?

Where are you from originally, sir?

[Video]

[soundsofdrums.livejournal.com]

Gallifrey. Lovely planet, back when it was still there.

[Video]

[floralprophecy.livejournal.com]

When it was... What happened to it?

[bunny_flower]

Ara, what should I call myself, then, if 904 is old?

[soundsofdrums.livejournal.com]

Would it be rude for me to ask your age?

[bunny_flower]

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