[He's just playing with the Dreamberry as he writes that opera he said he would. But he has an important question:]

Am I still 35 or am I 36? I had a birthday, but then I had another one here. Or have I gone back in time? Nannerl is from the past. I guess I'd still be 35, but another year older would be interesting. But then I would be old. Hmm.

[Bored Neku is very bored and is having artist block so-]

... Does it really matter that much?

And yeah, if you don't specify who then it just goes out to everyone.

[Voice]

[extravagances]

Wouldn't you care how old you were? It's important to know!

Interesting! So everybody heard this? This could be very useful.

[Time to make everybody listen to his music.]

[Voice]

[ifeelsoepic]

I guess. When you "wake up", nothing changes and you forget your time here so to each his own.

[He chooses not to celebrate his birthday so meh]

... What do you mean?

[Voice]

[extravagances]

I can understand that, but while I am here, I would like to remember my age. I'm too young to be forgetting it.

[Besides somebody gave him a gift.]

I can play my music over this then! Perhaps if I set it on a piano or near the people playing my music. Hmm.

[Voice]

[stickinmypants]

What does it matter?

You're still an old man. [Can you hear his contempt? He doesn't trust anyone older than he is. That's a tough break, since Gokudera is 14]

[Voice]

[extravagances]

[He's got a lot going against him, then.]

Now, now. I wouldn't say I'm an old man. I just have experience!

[Voice]

[stickinmypants]

You're old. [Gokudera repeats. 35 or 36 is like - ancient and unrelateable]

Don't be disgusting. [He totally misread that 'I have experience' comment]

[Voice]

[extravagances]

And you're young.

...Disgusting? [Going over his head.]

[madcuriosity]

Is today your birthday Master Mozart?

[extravagances]

Not today! It was a while ago actually. But the question has been plaguing my mind.

[madcuriosity]

Oh... well does it matter?

[extravagances]

Everybody keeps asking me that. Why of course it matters! Doesn't your age usually matter? And I did already have a birthday, don't you wonder at all what this would mean?

[ voice ]

[spectaculaire]

I guess it's really up to you, but I've celebrated my birthday here~ [both times~]

Though if you recently celebrated it...hm...I suppose that does cause a bit of a dilemma, wouldn't it?

[ voice ]

[extravagances]

Well, I had already celebrated a new year and a birthday before I came here. I forgot about my birthday entirely!

I suppose it's up to more experience or staying the same forever, but that could be very boring. Yet...

Hmm.

[ voice ]

[spectaculaire]

It is rather strange to think about aging in a dream world, but that does seem to be the case.

If anything, you could still throw the party~!

[ voice ]

[extravagances]

Isn't it?

[But oh, he likes you. That's the right track of mind.]

You are right! But my birthday has passed quite some time now. But I'm sure I can find another reason for a party. You can't have too many of those.

[gesangvoll]

I suppose you're however old you feel you are. And yes, these Dreamberries broadcast to the entirety of Somarium unless you tell them to do otherwise.

[extravagances]

Isn't that an answer. I suppose you're right! Maybe I'll start going by that. [Time to start making up ages now.] That really is amazing, though. Sending letters was never like this! It should have been. So much saved time.

[gesangvoll]

It is, yes. We had telephones back home, but they were nowhere near this advanced. [I mean, video and text and all that. Can't do that on early phones.]

[extravagances]

Telephones?

[Talks with Austria teach him so much about the future.]
