So, it's September already, which means my birthday is coming up!

I mean, it's technically February back home, but I'm not gonna complain about celebrating my birthday early. Besides, that seems like way too complicated math to try and figure out what it should be.

[It actually is not that complicated. It's the 28th of February where he's from. C'mon Jojo...]

[But then again, this is the guy who struggled at determining the age of someone who was a baby 50 years ago...]

Anyway, I'm gonna be nineteen on the 27th. Just to give you guys the heads up. You know. [He grins.] In case you wanna get me something.

Who cares about that?

[experiencepoints]

... You should?

[nextlineis]

Why?

[experiencepoints]

... Because not even knowing how old you are really, really sucks?

[nextlineis]

[Joseph shrugs.]

There's not that big of a difference between eighteen or nineteen.

[experiencepoints]

Take it from the amnesiac. Even if there's not much difference, it starts eating at you after a while.

[nextlineis]

Oh. Well, I don't know. It's not that big of a deal to me.

[experiencepoints]

At least write it down or something.

[nextlineis]

Alright, alright. I'll write it down later.

[experiencepoints]

Good. It might come in handy somehow, anyway.

[nextlineis]

Somehow...

[experiencepoints]

Never underestimate the value the most random shit can have.

[nextlineis]

What's Caesar's then?

[experiencepoints]

Well... What day did he arrive here from, and when is his birthday?

[nextlineis]

[It only lasts a few seconds as Joseph really didn't think before he spoke, but Joseph's expression shifts into something quieter, his gaze a little distant.]

February 27th, 1939. [He shakes his head a little. It's fine.] May 13.

[So, a bit of fun Nightingale trivia- while being more or less totally KY, she is hypersensitive to when someone gets upset, especially when it's when she says something.]

... Ah, sorry... Did I say something wrong?

[nextlineis]

[He just mutely shakes his head. After a beat of silence,]

So? What would it be?

[experiencepoints]

... September 23rd, it looks like.

[nextlineis]

Really?

[He lights up at that.]

[experiencepoints]

Yeah... February 27 to May 13 is seventy-five days. So... July 10, seventy-five days is September 23.

[nextlineis]

Nice! Very nice! Thanks for figuring that out for me.

[experiencepoints]

No problem. It's not hard- Even you should be able to do the conversion now if you need to for anyone else.

[nextlineis]

I hate math.

[And everything else to do with school for that matter. It's a good thing he has his looks, basically.]

[experiencepoints]

Unfortunately, it's necessary.

[nextlineis]

I get along just fine without it.
