[ Well that's certainly something he can't just walk away from without clarifying there. Though, then again, he doesn't seem the type to either lie nor exaggerate. ]

You're... a hundred?

[ A blink of her eyes, she finds her arms crossing in front of her then. ]

It's a good thing I didn't get you a cake then. That thing would be filled with nothing but candles.

...It's kind of a long story, but I got... lost and preserved in some ice for about seventy years, so I haven't lived all of them.

[ But it's still sort of his centennial, or it would be at home. ]

But I... guess even if I missed out on a lot, back home... it'd be a hundred years since I was born.

[ Definitely not the sort of assumption she would have made about him but, considering the various worlds and realities and even timelines people seem to come from around here, she can't exactly say she's shocked to the core at the thought. So instead, she smiles to him. ]

Well you look great for your age, if you don't mind my saying so.

[ A bit of a tease, maybe. ]

But I'm sure you get that a lot when you let people know.

Well, and the occasional, I don't look older than 97.

[ He grins. ]

Anyway, I hope the heat really isn't too bothersome.

Sometimes here.. you just don't know what's going to happen.

[ With her own lips still pressed into a smile, she laughs softly at his words because, well, he's right. ]

I've noticed when it comes to that. [ A beat. ] The not knowing what's going to happen part.

[ In case she needed to clarify that. With a glance over to the fan he brought, she gently pulls it over with her mind which, being a telekinetic, means she makes it drift on over through the air, coming to take it in her hand once close enough. ]

Thank you for the fan though and... I hope you like the cookies.

[ He looks over as this happens, his attention rapt. It's always nice to get to see these kinds of powers in action.

And he's glad that she feels comfortable enough to use them around him.

It makes him give a warm smile. ]

No problem. And, I'm sure I will.

Thanks, Jean.

And happy fourth.
