I won't be out of here by then.

But I'd like some cake if you feel like sharing.

[greatoldjohn]

That works out then.

I might. You might also get the tester recipe cake. It's my first birthday so I want it to be a good cake.

[weboftime]

I don't mind. You deserve a good birthday.

It was cake that Trixie gave me to remind me of what I am. Cake and pop.

[greatoldjohn]

I don't know what pop is. But cake does seem to make people happy.

[weboftime]

Soda.

She used to bring me sweets quite a bit.

[greatoldjohn]

Oh.

I can't really do sweets.

[weboftime]

What do you mean?

[greatoldjohn]

What do you mean, what do I mean?

I don't have a body. I can't eat anything.

[weboftime]

I know. But you still make cakes.

That's all I meant.

[greatoldjohn]

Oh. Yeah.

I like hearing what people have to say. And I like having something to focus on while they eat.

[weboftime]

You like the service of it? Making them happy?

[greatoldjohn]

Service?

I never considered it service.

Making them happy is something I want to do.

And making it is like a game. Getting it right is a prize for me.

[weboftime]

That's a service.

It isn't a terrible thing. I tried to find enjoyment in it for a while.

[greatoldjohn]

It doesn't feel like service to me.

Maybe that's the difference.

[weboftime]

Maybe it is.

I should let you focus on Arthur.

Thank you.

[greatoldjohn]

Ugh. He's a fucking asshole when he's deathtolling.

Talk to Trixie. I'll talk to you later.
