Time. That's what I am. The ever moving, ever changing, ever...something else of Time. And you're wasting me with this journal and this post. Do you really think I'm going to let you do that? I am Time! You're wasting me!

Humans. How do you even exist?

[Thirrin is clever when she bothers to try, by the words of Maggiore Totus himself.]

Aren't you wasting time by asking how we lowly humans exist?

[alwaysmoving]

I am Time. I'm allowed to waste myself. Like you and your alcohol.

[too_many_names]

Then the person behind you is greater than Time and has even more a right to waste you.

I drink wine with three parts water, as is appropriate for my age.

[alwaysmoving]

There's no-one behind me. I am everywhere.

And how old are you exactly?

[too_many_names]

Figuratively. I think that's the word, I never pay much attention to Maggie's vocabulary lessons.

I am fourteen.

[alwaysmoving]

Wasting your time? [Smirk]

Such an inaccurate number. 441763200 would be more so, but you must be older than that by now.

[too_many_names]

I'm more interested in battle and sword lessons and hunting.

How could I be such an age? Even the Vampire King and Queen aren't that old.

[Wow, Time, way to confuse her.]

[alwaysmoving]

What you do with me is your own business. No, wait, it's mine!

Being 441783200 is the same as being fourteen. Just as one half is the same as two quarters.

[forever_cheery]

Um, I don't think we know why we exist! It just kinda happened?

[alwaysmoving]

You exist because your parents created you. If you all stopped having sex, it would solve all my problems!

[too_many_names]

Then I have wasted several years of it. What will you do?

[Placing her hands on her hips.]

And how is that to equal fourteen?? I can understand the halves and quarters but that is a large number!

[alwaysmoving]

There is nothing I can do. I can only move forwards. Not back.

What about one half being equal to five hundred and twelve, one thousand and twenty fourths?

[de_vita_exire]

Tempus, you're being annoying on purpose aren't you.

[alwaysmoving]

I prefer Time. And I'm always annoying on purpose. Shouldn't waste myself!

[forever_cheery]

Oh! O-Oh. [She blushes slightly.] Well, there's billions of people in the world, so that might be sort of a tall order!

[alwaysmoving]

I'm not saying it'll happen overnight. But eventually, if you stop having babies all the time, then you'll die out!

[de_vita_exire]

Oh, aren't you just precious, Tempus- oops, Time, but you're being a pest. Do you really think your presence is necessary here?

[forever_cheery]

...But what if we don't want to? [Aurora shush you're already dead]

[alwaysmoving]

Sadly I can't make you do anything. My friend, Death, on the other hand...

[alwaysmoving]

My presence is always necessary. I am what stops everything happening at once.

And dare I ask who you are, wasting me?

[too_many_names]

And it is likely that I will continue to waste it.

[This math stuff makes her head hurt...]

Maybe you should talk to Maggie. He's the tutor.

[alwaysmoving]

Me. Not it.

[He rolls his eyes.]

You told me your age in years. I told you it in seconds. Quite simple.

[too_many_names]

Fine. You.

[So picky.]

Oh... [Guess who feels a bit stupid?]

[de_vita_exire]

Why, my dear.. I'm Death.

[alwaysmoving]

Thank you.

[You wouldn't like being called "it", would you?]

Mathematics not your strongest subject, I take it?
