007: Bon Anniversaire à moi

[It's been one hundred and sixty-three years to the day that Jack obtained statehood. One hundred and sixty-two years prior, he hardly guessed he would get this far. Of course, he hasn't celebrated it every year, and he doesn't know if being in HQ for this one makes it any different. After all, he figured that if a cupcake costs an average $1.99 at a grocery store (plus sales tax, but he'll round it to $2.00 even), he would have wasted $326 in the past one hundred and sixty-three years on cupcakes. Thus, he finds it a little bit useless to celebrate.

Even if he thinks that way, he managed to find a cupcake on his end table this morning with a lovely little note from HQ wishing him a happy one hundred sixty third, and hopefully another one hundred and sixty-three to come. Obviously, he can't waste a perfectly good cupcake.

So yes, Happy Birthday, Jack. :)

Well, ya wanna sit down? I can make coffee or somethin' for like, a mini-celebration.

[identity profile] lakesyaknow.livejournal.com 2009-12-29 04:45 am (UTC)(link)
Now way! I should be the one making coffee for ya. How about you sit down and I'll take care of that for ya.

[identity profile] hawkeyeiowa.livejournal.com 2009-12-29 05:00 am (UTC)(link)
If ya want! But if ya need any help, don't hesitate to ask.

[identity profile] lakesyaknow.livejournal.com 2009-12-29 05:19 am (UTC)(link)
Nope! You sit tight and I'll be right back!

And with that, he runs off and comes back a little later with a nice cup of coffee

I added cream and sugar to it if ya don't mind...

Perfect! I kinda like my coffee bordering on cappuccino, so this is fine. []

[identity profile] lakesyaknow.livejournal.com 2009-12-29 05:24 am (UTC)(link)
Oh great! I like my coffee with a good...80% cream.

He chuckles and takes a seat

So how has HQ been for ya?

Eh, it's been okay. Mostly, I've been stayin' around my room so I don't get into any nasty rooms like what I've heard about.

[identity profile] lakesyaknow.livejournal.com 2009-12-29 05:52 am (UTC)(link)
That's a fantastic idea...that and all the creeps walking around. But anyways, the weather is great. I'm loving this snow.

So says you. After my place got buried under it, I've been kinda iffy around that, too.

[identity profile] lakesyaknow.livejournal.com 2009-12-29 06:00 am (UTC)(link)
He laughs

None of you like Snow! It's not fair. Ok, it clogs my freeways but it's fun to play in~

[identity profile] hawkeyeiowa.livejournal.com 2009-12-29 06:02 am (UTC)(link)
Once ya plow enough of it to look like the Great Wall of China, then it's fun. Otherwise, I kinda hate closing down everything just because it gets dumped on me.

[identity profile] lakesyaknow.livejournal.com 2009-12-29 06:08 am (UTC)(link)
He nods and sips his cup of coffee

That's a good point...have you met any new friends here?

[identity profile] hawkeyeiowa.livejournal.com 2009-12-29 06:12 am (UTC)(link)
Uhhh, not so much. S' kinda the down side to not leavin' my room a lot either. I don't see anyone else.

[identity profile] lakesyaknow.livejournal.com 2009-12-29 06:14 am (UTC)(link)
Well I should show ya around more! You might meat some interesting people...if I didn't get out, I wouldn't have met Will~

[identity profile] hawkeyeiowa.livejournal.com 2009-12-29 06:18 am (UTC)(link)
An' we all know how that went. How are you two doin', anyhow?

[identity profile] lakesyaknow.livejournal.com 2009-12-29 06:21 am (UTC)(link)
O-oh just wonderful! He's so sweet and handsome...and I love him so much...

He sighs

Sounds like ya couldn't be much happier.

[identity profile] lakesyaknow.livejournal.com 2009-12-29 06:31 am (UTC)(link)
He flushes slightly and nods, chuckling

Y-yeah...but I could use some friends, ya know?

[identity profile] hawkeyeiowa.livejournal.com 2009-12-29 06:36 am (UTC)(link)
Of course, and I'm sure ya got a ton.

And Gabe....who's a dirty rotten little cockblocking sunnuva...

He mumbles a long list of obsenities but it's really hard to tell what he's saying. Just imagine the swearword episode of spongebob for now.
