I would like everyone to join me in wishing a very happy birthday to Liminal Space's best six-and-a-half year old, Takashi Shirogane!

Happy birthday, dude. If I could make things, I'd make you a cake.

He's the sweetest thing since fairy toast, really. And adorable to boot. You should see him talk about Oort clouds.

[thornsofmalkav]

Oh nooooo. I do want to hear.

[vrepit_no]

Get him drunk and start talking about Tatooine's binary star system. That'll get him revved up too. Rambles for hours if you let him.

[thornsofmalkav]

That's adorable.

[vrepit_no]

Definitely. He'll probably also get around to the Goldilocks Zone and how unimaginative the universe is about planets and why we need to expand the space program. Which he'll probably have some new material for since last time I heard the speech. ...Hm. Might have to hunt down some booze.

Swing by my room and I'll see if I can get some off of Alcuin by the time you get there. He's always got the good wine. Comes of being Angel French.

[vrepit_no]

[hold up, what?]

...Angel French?

[thornsofmalkav]

France in his world has a bunch of people descended from angels there. It's a thing.

[vrepit_no]

Really... Well that's interesting. .........Kind of explains some things too, if he's one of those people. We're talking biblical messengers of god with wings, right? Not vintage living mecha anime alien angels of death?

[thornsofmalkav]

Yep. Biblical, not anime.

[vrepit_no]

The things you have to check in this place. ...So does he make angel wine?

[thornsofmalkav]

... no, just copies of really nice vintages from back home for him. Or, well, I'm told they're nice. I'm still developing my palate.

Never really learned much about wine myself. I know you're not supposed to get the cheap stuff, and dessert wine is the sweetest. White goes with fish, red goes with red meat? I think? It was a college town. Mixed drinks and beer was more likely to be on the menu at the clubs and bars.

[thornsofmalkav]

Yeah, it was the same back home. At least the ones I went to. We weren't so far from wine country, though, for there not to be wine bars at all, though. Just-- not my kind of bar back then.

[vrepit_no]

Where was home? I'm guessing California?

[thornsofmalkav]

Santa Carla. It's on the north side of the Monterey Bay. We're in that part that's neither proper Norcal nor Socal.

[vrepit_no]

Nice. Beautiful country out there. You can't beat the ocean. A clear night, no clouds, far enough down the highway that you're away from most of the city lights, you can spend all night out there easy, listening to the waves and watching the stars.
