the nineteenth - [locked to close friends//locked from nena and michael]

My initial suspicions were incorrect. They are aging.

Nena came by this afternoon. She came to tell me that she had selected a birthday, and wanted me to start making preparations. And that's what got me thinking.

You can see it. You can see that she's almost a year older than when we first met her. You can see it in Michael, too.

I don't know what to think about this. For there to be such a critical difference, even just a single one, there is the high probability that there are more. That, in truth, they are something else entirely. They seem to be, for nearly all intents and purposes, normal human beings.

((OOC: if you're not sure if you're a close friend, just ask~))

I can't think of anybody else that either you or I know that you'd be looking to compare them against.

You could say that, yeah. But I've had years of experience with things like this.

Things like this?

Spotting little things like aging. And well, you know, when you travel for as long as I have on as wide a scale as I have, you usually become quite good at picking up on what makes a certain species a certain species.

Do you know what species I am, then?

I'll be honest with you, Tieria, but as much as I hate to say it, I'm not completely sure. I mean, at first glance and in a lot of ways, I would have said that you were human, but then there's some things that don't completely add up. Like the aging thing, for instance, not to mention that little trick with you-know-what that you were pulling back in January. Adding to that that you're from a different universe to me, however similar...

So what you're saying is, you don't have a clue.
