[handset | video] one love, one life (backdated to 3/5 or so)

[The video flips on to show Erskine, gorgeous as always, and actually not looking dog-tired for once! In fact, he's smiling. This is possibly the happiest Erskine has looked on the network while sober.

...which probably has to do with the attractive redhead hovering in the background. Those who've seen Erskine's echo stone will recognize Hopeless. Those who haven't might recognize the man Erskine's been attached at the hip to for the last couple of weeks.]

Right, hello everyone. So, Hopeless had a question--

[The redhead in the background scoffs gently.]

Alright, we had a question. How old are all you Foreigners out there? We're interested in age demographics. You can be vague if you like, and you don't have to answer of course.

And in the spirit of sharing, I... missed my last birthday. It was in February. Which I suppose makes me 409 now.

I would not have offered if I were not already aware of that.

Only a couple months now I believe?

[edgeoftheknife]

Oh! Right. Well in that case, yes. We should absolutely celebrate.

...what, we missed yours too? You should have said something!

[purered]

No, no - my birthday is on a holiday so I have, in a sense, already celebrated.

[Klaus no]

I'll see about getting you a proper cake. Any preference for flavour?

[edgeoftheknife]

Klaus, it doesn't work like that. Especially if no one else knows it's your birthday!

Oh, you don't have to do that. Hopeless and Pepper are making a cake. But thank you, I appreciate the thought.

[purered]

Well, in my defense, there's been quite a bit going on since, so an opportunity to properly celebrate hasn't really presented itself.

Ah - your friend Hopeless is here? That's lovely news. Are you two enjoying yourselves?
