So, it turns out that something hilarious can happen here if you decide to celebrate your birthday here based on "how long you've been alive" instead of just what the calendar date says because the month was different back home when you first got pulled into a different world.

So yep, forgot my eighteenth birthday was on Monday. Which is dumb, because I remembered last year's, but apparently I put the reminder on this thing wrong and it didn't repeat it this year.

But anyway, enough about me being dumb about my birthday, being here for two of them made me think of something.

Just how many of us who are here have actually been here for over a year? I mean, I know there's some of us, but I don't think many of us have mentioned it before.

And... well... is anyone else here not sure what they'd do if they were given a choice about going home, instead of just vanishing and showing up back there?

[She meant that last question more for those of them who have been here a while, but really there's no reason to limit it to just them. There's probably plenty of reasons that someone who just got here would want to stay rather than go home, after all. ]

Too true. Especially since as far as anyone will tell us, no one knows what actually brings us here or back home.

I might not know much about how travelling between worlds works, but I'm pretty sure you need to know what one method of travelling between them is if you want to use the same one.

[ Not that anyone she's been talking to so far wants to use the same one, the all want their memories to stay. But it does mean they can't just think they'll get back right when they left if a new way home is found.]

Yeah.

There is, of course, theories floating around - that's only natural - but nothing exactly concrete. I sure as hell don't know how world travel, much less dimensional travel works, but yeah. Basically.

I mean, from all I've heard from people who are used to it, both those terms get thrown around to mean the same thing a lot of the time. Or at least some of the time.

Makes talking about this harder than it has to be, honestly.
