[Arthur's taking this pretty well. He's just leaning back in a chair and smoking a cigar. BECAUSE HE'S OLD AND HE CAN.]

I think I would have liked to have experienced a few of the decades that led up to this. It'd make the "golden years" feel earned.

[He smirks.]

But it's good to know I'm going to age well.

Guess now would be a bad time to ask you if you were up for some sparring.

[paradoxlol]

I think a light jog's about all I've got in me.

[batmanschmatman]

Don't worry, I'll let you enjoy your golden years in peace.

[paradoxlol]

I wouldn't say no to something like fishing, you know.

[paradoxlol]

You know I'm not the Admiral, right? If I was, there'd be a lot less floods.

[paradoxlol]

If we could, do you think we'd ever be hit by them?

[scarlet_discord]

Yeah...nothing to worry about when it comes to how you'll look.

I still feel like hiding in my room though.

[paradoxlol]

How come? I think you look distinguished.

[scarlet_discord]

That's sweet of you. I just shouldn't look like this until I've got at least sixty years more badass magical training under my belt.

[paradoxlol]

Yeah, that's the part I can't get used to. At least when the Admiral turns us into kids, most of us have already been there before.

[most_feared]

Today is just the weirdest damn day. And I'm not even affected.

Nice mustache.

[paradoxlol]

You're telling me. Never thought I'd wake up with fifty years missing.

[Amused:] I'm thinking about growing one after the flood's passed.

[most_feared]

Wait possibly until your hair starts to turn gray, I think. Cause uh...

Personal opinion. I think that's when people wear them best.

[paradoxlol]

You think I can't pull off a Clark Gable look?

[doctor_j_crane]

Smoking makes you sick and you probably have the same lungs as you always have.

[paradoxlol]

I'm not making a habit of it.

[doctor_j_crane]

So why do it now? Do you like it?
