text: shin.o. / age???

[mindthebass]

just wondering something.


what year were you born and how old are you? i'm from 1983, and last i remember, it was 2001. there are people who are close in age but are from different years in the future, making me old relatively, and i hate this.

... am i old to you?

(nope, 1985. still, he's sad.)

what does riding have to do with cars

(he took it elsewhere.)

[eyediot]

Ride shares? Like Uber or-

[Wait. He said 2001. Fuuuuck why doesn't he have the Beholding so he can just Know when ride shares started.]

It was a program you can request a driver. Sort of a taxi service but without strict fares.

[mindthebass]

oh.

yeah.

still. i don't think we really could. we get swarmed easily

[eyediot]

As long as whatever your manager does works, I suppose.

[Must be some sort of musician. From the conversation before and now this. He's so curious.]

Did you also say you're a musician as well?

[mindthebass]

he does his best.

yep. bassist from a punk band in japan

[eyediot]

That makes sense, then.

And I suppose here you haven't had any issue? With the paparazzi, I mean.

[mindthebass]

(.......................... worse but ok)

our singer has been in a relationship with our rival band's guitarist. that got leaked.

i myself, haven't. i'm particular about my privacy.

[eyediot]

[DEEPLY UNFORTUNATE.]

Understandable. I would be too, if I were in your situation.

[mindthebass]

well, considering they were number one in japan and it pushed us right to the top, it worked out in the end.

[eyediot]

Hm. Something to be said for publicity, no matter the context.

I can't imagine having my life on display like that.

[Jon.]

[mindthebass]

well.

just lie, i guess.

[eyediot]

Perhaps.

And to answer your original question, no. You don't seem old to me.

[mindthebass]

companies do that all the time. don't believe in any artist's background, height, weight or anything like it. it's their job to make you appealing, after all.

i am not, right?????

[eyediot]

I rarely believe what's presented in front of me anyway.

And no. If you had been brought from the same year as me, you'd only be a few years older than me. But I doubt you'd seem it then either.

[mindthebass]

good for you. you shouldn't.

i can't imagine how it's like to be older, anyway.

[eyediot]

It's not all it's cracked up to be, really.

[Nevermind if Shin was from the same year Jon is, Shin would be older.]

[mindthebass]

i'm not really interested.

[eyediot]

Then don't, I suppose.

[mindthebass]

HOW

[eyediot]

Beats me. It's not really my area of expertise.

[Now if Elias or Rayner were here, they could give all the details.]

[mindthebass]

YOU'RE NOT HELPING!!!!!!

[eyediot]

Sorry. Genuinely. I suppose just keep doing what you love and stay young at heart.

[mindthebass]

still figuring that one out.

specially since i'm on my own.

[eyediot]

It's never easy, when it's like that. I'm on my own as well and trying to figure things out.

But thankfully... Most of the people I've spoken with here are kind. They may be able to help you.

[mindthebass]

yeah, but none are my band, you see?

it's different.
