Okay, City. Question time.

Say this is the second time you've been in the City and you have no idea what happened the first time around, although there are some awesome people who remember you. Now say it's, you know, one of their birthdays, and you want to give them something special and thoughtful, but you haven't really gotten to know them as well as they know you and you have no idea what you might've given them for their birthday before. What do you do?

Also, for anyone who was following that rainbow a couple days ago--did you find anything? Dumb question, but stranger things've happened.

I hope everyone's still doing okay. If anyone ever needs anything, I'd like to help. If you can't reach me on the network-thing--sometimes I forget to turn it on when I'm running around--I'm usually hanging out around the Welcome Center. This is absolutely not aimed at anyone specific.

[Filtered to Peter Vincent // Ridiculously Hackable]

Hey, Peter? Not to accuse you of anything, but have you maybe been following me since that weird song curse? It's just that I keep seeing you in really random places and you always look away really fast or hide behind something when I notice you.

If there's something you want to talk to me about, you know you can just talk to me, right? As long as it doesn't have anything to do with songs that were playing completely against my will or that thing that I said, I promise I won't hang up on you. Again. Did I ever mention that I'm sorry about that? I just get really freaked out by you sometimes. That didn't come out right. What I mean is, the things you talk about are kind of freaky. Nothing against you. Really.

Also, if these're your bottles I keep finding around, it'd be great if you'd consider recycling them instead of leaving them on the ground.

[ooc: Ever-so-slightly forward dated to the morning of March 20th when I have no intention of being awake, so open to anyone cursed with The Worst of Me.]

Hey, Penny.

Hey, Steve. What's up?

I just thought I'd say hello.

....do you like apple pie?

Well, thank you, and hello to you, too.

Of course! I've never met a pie I didn't like.

Bucky bought one. Do you want a slice?

On the birthday thing... Think I'd give them some money so they could buy themselves what they wanted. Maybe take them out to dinner or something.

The money thing is a good idea. Thanks, Derek.

...Unless it's too impersonal. I hope it doesn't seem too impersonal.

It probably isn't too impersonal given the circumstances. And it gives you a year to get to know what they would like that is more personal.

Good thinking. Brilliant, even.

Brilliant might be pushing it, Red. But I'll go with it being a good idea. I mean it's the thought that counts, really. And knowing you, you'll more than make up for any impersonal in there next year when you know this person better. You've got a good heart, Penny.

You were here before?

So I've been told. Repeatedly. It's so awkward, having people know you when you don't remember them.

Have any of them yelled at you for it, yet?

No, but there's been a little confusion and maybe some hurt feelings.

Wait, yet?

It was the standard reaction when I arrived. I expect you're harder to yell at.

What? Me? No! Why do you ask?

[uncertainly] Just because... you know, most people don't swear and hide when I look at them.

Maybe it was a face clone. I've got a bunch of those.

Yeah, but I've never talked to any of those.

Plus, I don't think they wear eyeliner.

Why would I stalk you?

Who's birthday is it?

I can't say that! It'd ruin the surprise.

[And Penny isn't that great with the filtering, but yeah. Ruining surprises. Let's go with that.]

That's okay, I'm crap at giving gifts anyway. Sammy got magazines and shaving cream for his last birthday. [And a dream catcher that Dean made himself but that borders on sappy sooo he'll avoid saying that.]

But it's the thought that counts, right? [Right.] So I guess I don't need to stress about it.

Yup. That's always been my theory. Nah. You'll give yourself ulcers and headaches.
