I don't know what a kid like you would want with an old man like me, but I got some time to spare.

Only eternity awaits me when this is through, after all. It can stand to wait a little while longer.

Funny; I can relate to that.

the username; i love it.

[heartisabattleground]

Eternity?

[But, not the point.]

Well, there's a lot to do here.

[spicycracker]

It's rather kind of you to wait for your mun.

Keeeeeent

[backwordscompatible]

You certainly have a lot of patience, Mr. Nelson.

[dumbledoresitup]

Only through years of practice, my dear. It took me a long time to realize that all things happen in due time and that I should just enjoy the moment.

[backwordscompatible]

I could get behind that sentiment.

[Living in the moment was what she did best.]

[dumbledoresitup]

They decided that an old man like me is interesting enough to waste their time on, so it only seemed fair that I give them mine.

[spicycracker]

You are hardly that old, Sir, and you must be quite the character if your here, right?

[dumbledoresitup]

Then consider yourself ahead of the me at your age. I was in too much of a hurry to get to a place that I didn't even know that I let a lot of opportunities pass me by because I wouldn't open my eyes to the world around me.

I was fortunate enough to find someone that opened them for me and then my life really stared to begin.

[Her expression melts into a genuine smile. Kent talking about beloved reminded her so much of when her dad used to talk about her mom.]

You really loved her, didn't you?

[dumbledoresitup]

It's what awaits one when they ascend.

[Or something like that.]

Even for an old man like me?

[dumbledoresitup]

[He has a wistful smile on his face as he pulls out his pocket watch and clicks it open to stare at the picture inside.]

She made it impossible for me not to love her. [He gives a little chuckle..] Even when I was convinced that I wanted nothing to do with her.

[backwordscompatible]

[It's hard not to take a peek for herself at the picture]

How did you two meet?

[dumbledoresitup]

I think most people can. Even if they don't truly know it themselves.

[thesauruses]

Yes, with the way I'm thinking about it, that does make sense.

[witchboy_klarion]

Your mundane must be really stupid to want a geezer like you in their headspace.

[thecutetransfer]

You seem like a pretty cool old guy, sir!

screeches

[runrightround]

I never thought you'd be around here.

[Uh.]

Not that it's not nice seeing you again, because it totally is.
