[ Kara looks quite pleased with herself today, and for good reason too. See, she's done some very basic calculations, and she's pretty happy with the answer. ]

Dean's questions got me wondering, so I looked up Earth's orbital frequencies and calendars. It turns out that the approximate equivalent of my birthday is September 22nd. That's about five months from now, if I have the order right.

As it also turns out, in Earth years I'll be turning 23. I guess Kryptonians live a lot longer than Terrans. Who knew?

[ Everyone probably knew, but Kara is just so smug. ]

I do have a very long life in front of me.

[ Don't you dare call her a little kid. ]

[He'd never dream of it.]

But you want to spend it here.

[notdreaming]

I want to go home.

[impure_tale]

Many do. It's admirable that you stay to benefit someone else.

[notdreaming]

[ Yes, because she doesn't have anyplace to go... ]

Thanks.

I'm not sure we've been properly introduced.

[notdreaming]

No, I don't think we have. I'm Kara Zor-El.

[impure_tale]

The Marquis de Sade, cheri. Pleased to make your acquaintance.

[notdreaming]

And you as well, I'm sure.
