The 84th Song

[tangledintower]

...huh. You know, with everything that's been going on this month...heck, everything this past week, I totally forgot about my birthday. Guess with everything that's been happening, doing birthday stuff was sort of secondary.

Still, I think I'm gonna bake cupcakes or something, while the day is quiet and curse free. Goodness knows that won't last...!

Almost three years here...three years, three birthday...and still no floating lanterns. Ah well.

Is it your birthday today? It is not too late to make lanterns, if you know how.

[tangledintower]

I think I know how. I made them one before...not thousands of them, though.

[candothat]

That would be difficult, with only one or two people making them. Would you like help making some?

[tangledintower]

You know, I'd love the help. Thank you, Pavel!

[candothat]

Of course! I have been meaning to talk to you again--I'm sorry for taking so long.

[tangledintower]

Oh, no, it's okay! It's not like this has been the best month in the City, after all...

[candothat]

No, this month has been very interesting. That could be said of most months here, even when no one is staging a revolution.

[tangledintower]

I just hope that no matter who ends up 'winning', people here will be all right...

[candothat]

They will be. Everyone in the City is, if nothing else, durable.

[tangledintower]

I know, you're right. If nothing else, we're all tough, we'll be okay.
