You're a few weeks off but thanks for the belated wishes. There's hardly anytime these days to make room for celebrating so it was nothing special. Besides, once you get to my age, you'd want to keep it on the down-low that you're steadily climbing the ladder up to 40.

It is far easier to age gracefully when very few people know your actual age.

[triptoprofiling]

Age gracefully, huh? I'm pretty sure things would be the same no matter how many people knew. Even out of my 20's it's like I'm still aging like a clumsy prepubescent.

[gentleman_thief]

I don't know you seem rather young in spirit to me.

I certainly would of had a harder time when I was working on the other side of the law if there was someone like you.

[triptoprofiling]

Thanks... [He's not sure whether he should take that as a compliment or not.]

I don't know what you do for a living but I just do what I need to do to get the job done. Anyone else with a lick of common sense can do what I do.

[gentleman_thief]

There is a certain personality and intelligence that goes into something like criminal profiling. Anyone can be an officer but not a profiler.

As for myself, let's just say I work for the government for now.

[triptoprofiling]

So you're working for them temporarily?

[gentleman_thief]

Oh no I'm sure I'll be working from them until the day I die.

I simply don't intend to elaborate on what I do unless you push the issue.

[triptoprofiling]

That's your call. Personally? I think it would only be fair since you already know I'm a profiler.

[gentleman_thief]

Well I suppose it can't hurt given we're from different universes.

I work for an international organization that investigates claims of the paranormal, among other things.

[triptoprofiling]

You're secret is safe with me. Besides, no one would believe me in the first place. A job like that is something we would only see on TV.

ffffff <3 I have no appropriate journal.

Birthdays be a wonderful way to coerce gifts out of others. Or mentions, as it were.

totally cool in the neighborhood brosis <3

[triptoprofiling]

I'm not too big on birthday presents. They were really nice when I was a kid but nowadays they lost their luster.

[filches]

[ He taps a few fingers on the brim of his mouth.] I would be willing to be a true gentlemen and take any and all of your gifts for you. In the case that they are not wanted.

[triptoprofiling]

Thanks but no thanks. I'm happy with the sweater and socks I got from my mother.

[filches]

Sweater and socks, aye? I was under the impression presents were supposed to be something that wasn't so ...unentertaining.

[triptoprofiling]

That depends on who you're talking to. Some people would pick flashiness over practicality while others would chose vice versa. It's all a matter of taste really.
