Two thousand and ten. The beginning of it, just...right after New Year's too. [ Funny it doesn't seem that long ago but he's been here a year. ]

And you? [ Though considering the laudanum statements he's figuring you're from way back. But people still use it nowadays so he's not sure. ]

[simplestgift]

Eighteen hundred and two.

Oh my. You are...almost from the same time as my good friend, Frederic Chopin. It must be a bit starling for you I'd imagine. Talking to people from the future at least. And then there's all the weird technology they have here.

[ A pause. ] These journal things...still hard to use those filters.

[simplestgift]

Someone showed me. And yes, it used to be very startling. But my sweetheart is from very nearly your time. One gets used to it.

[folklorist]

Mm that makes sense. If it's anything that can make someone used to something, it's love. [ It's a subtle sad tone but nothing that isn't easily covered up. ]

[simplestgift]

Oh, well. [They haven't used the l-word yet, but his embarrassed yet warm reaction might give the idea that it's not too far off.] I'm not sure I would call it--but yes, I'm sure it's true.

[folklorist]

Oh. Was that a bit presumptuous of me? [ Just a sheepish laugh. ] My apologies.

[ Though you haven't outright denied it Archie. ] It makes you do crazy things as well. Though Luceti has enough of an effect to do that as well. I'm sure the former is more wanted than the latter though.

Every world is mad in its own way. At least here, I can say "Bugger the Malnosso" and no one will come to hang me for treason.

It's what makes them unique. It would be very much the opposite. You'll have a crowd very much in agreement with that sentiment.

[simplestgift]

Yes, and that's a thing to be valued.
