[TEXT]
Due to various circumstances in my world of origin, for quite a while, time was immeasurable for me. It came to lack meaning. Weeks bled into months, months into years. In some ways, this world seems like that for many of us; there's a lack of structure, and the list of things that one can do with themselves before they settle into some sort of day-to-day routine is incredibly short. These creatures become a part of our daily lives; this world becomes a part of our daily lives. And before we know it, we've spent weeks here. Months. Years.
That blank spot in my life lasted for seven years, I believe. Yet with nothing else to focus on, I discovered more about myself in those seven years than I did over the course of most of the rest of my life. Spending that long in the dark - whether it's physical or otherwise - tends to teach one a lot, I believe, even if it's just where your limits lie.
You'll have to forgive me for the needless introspection; if you're humoring me by continuing to read, either you have more patience than most at half-midnight, or this is one of those messages on the feed that greets you first thing in the morning. But apparently time does have meaning to most people in this place - in which case...
Tell me how long you've been here, if you choose, and what you've come to discover about yourself in that time.
I suppose it's worth saying that personally, I've been here for a year, as of half an hour ago.
For me, it's been another year where time has next to no meaning, despite the fact that I have an easy way to keep track of it; another year with no direction, though I wouldn't say it's been spent in the dark. Whether I like what I've discovered about myself or not within that year has yet to be seen; however, I find myself content with the way things are.
While I know that I have no choice in the matter, I think I could tolerate another year.
[PRIVATE TEXT TO KATO]
I have a favor to ask of you.

Work, of course; although I may get a little bit of pleasure out of it.
Tell me, do you think I'll make a good redhead? I've found the perfect wig.

I do hope it's profitable for you.

[He pauses for a moment after that's out there, however.]
I do rather appreciate what you've been willing to do for me, Dr. Kato; I may request your assistance with a personal project of mine, at a later date.
For the time being, however, enjoy your evening - and do try to sleep at some point; you're going to work yourself into an early grave at this rate.

[[But really, this is rather nice. He never knew you cared, Kimblee!]]
You don't need to worry about me; I intend to get my beauty sleep~
Do have a safe trip; with any luck I'll have something interesting for you when you return.
