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.

You are 904 years old?

Correct, in your Earth years.

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.

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.

Surely there are certain milestones which are celebrated, though. Coming of age, or reaching a century, or millennium. The age at which one may pilot a ship of time, perhaps?

The only age that particularly matters is eight, when one enters the Academy. Other than that? No, there isn't much. I come from a very dull race, after all.

Regenerations? You are not human?

Not in the least. I'm a Time Lord. And yes, regenerations--my race has the ability to regenerate and completely change our bodies in the process.

[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?

If it has truly been almost nine hundred years since there was any significance attached to a birthday, then this one must be made particularly special. It is a shame that such has not happened in so long. Birthdays are days to be celebrated - another year of life is always worth celebrating, is it not?

Oh.. that sounds.. useful?

What do time lords do? [Yes he knows it sounds pretty obvious, but.. best not to jump to conclusions and all that.]

Are there more of you here?

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

What do we do? Live, like any other race. Travel through time. Most of them hardly interfere with things anymore, boooooring. Well. Not that that matters anymore, considering that they're all dead except for the Doctor and I.

An Earth year is so little to me at this point, but yes, you do have a point. Considering how--nice the Doctor has been to me as of late, I'm sure that he'll insist on something anyway himself.

Travel through time? What kind of things have you seen because of that? Did you travel back in time to see famous events?

Can you travel.. um, space too? Or can you only time travel in a certain area?

[That last part is a little sad though] There are only two of you left?

From: [identity profile] soundsofdrums.livejournal.com
I've seen plenty of things, and I have. Some. I'm not one for aimless sightseeing, however.

Space travel? Oh, yes. Our ships travel through both time and space.

Yes. Just the two. Terrible war, you see.

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

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

But.. it's your birthday! Even if it's something small, there should be something.

I'm rather short on ideas, unfortunately.

Then I'll have to decide myself, so, please wait just a little while. I didn't know it was now, after all!
