So What's Your Age Again?

[clockwork_doc]

60-something, 70-something -- it seems to change depending on which bits of the canon you go by (TAS, movies, Game). And of course this Doc has to account for a) time spent not on earth, b) time spent in Chicago, & c) time spent in a pocket universe whose personal timestream was really messed up for a while there.

Well, while determining Doc's age may be an exercise in futility at this point, determining his birthday is easy -- it's today! The Inkwell is decked out in the usual streamers -- orange & brown -- with red and yellow balloons and a few cute cut-outs of gears helping to hold everything up. BTTF's theme is playing on the jukebox, and goodies are set out on the bar itself. You all know the drill by now, so let's get to giving presents!

"Thank you," Doc says, patting the tentacles on the claws before ripping open the present. His grin brightens even more, if that's possible. "A new coffeemaker! About damn time!"

"Yeah -- I think Vic can't do anything with that old gag anymore, so she let us finally give you a new one," NoTril Doc says. "Now we just have to figure out how to dispose of the old one."

"Well, that can be her present to me," Doc says, smirking at his mun.

"Weeell, if you really want that instead of me guaranteeing you a chance to meet Jules Verne," Vic says in a teasing sing-song.

Doc's jaw drops. "Wait -- what? Seriously?!"

"Yeah," Vic nods. "I was reading over that first 'Alice: Otherlands' script, and I thought, if Alice can meet the guy. . . I'll have to come up with a way for it to happen, since your pocket universe is empty and all, but rest assured it will happen before the year is out."

"That's -- wow." Doc almost looks teary-eyed. "Thank you so much."

"Hey -- anything for the guy who was -- well, my first on LiveJournal," Vic says, glancing over at RolePlayDoc, who chuckles.
