He shrugged. "That works. I guess." He had stopped celebrating his birthday once he hit the 1,000 year mark. It just got tedious, celebrating birthdays when the people coming just kept getting older.

She smiled. "Good." She wrote down a date, not letting Winter see when it was. "What's your favorite color?"

"Uhhhh blue." He blurted with a shrug.

She nodded, writing it down with surprisingly somewhat legible handwriting. "Favorite cake flavor?"

"Why is this important?" He asked, looking at her strangely.

She looked up at Winter and pointed to herself. "I'm the one asking questions." She pointed at him. "Not you. Now, answer the question."

"Vanilla." He replied slowly, arching an eyebrow.

She smiled smugly. "Thank you." She wrote it down, her handwriting slowly getting worse the more tired she became. "Now, if you could have any one thing in this world, what would it be?"

He blinked, thinking. "Uhm. I don't know?"

Astra sighed and crumpled up the paper, putting it in her pocket. She threw the pen at his chest. "Well, I got all I needed."

He let the pen hit him. "Uhm. Okay?"

She staggered out of her chair, almost falling, and walked to the fridge. "You want water or anything?"

He watched her go, amused. "No. I'm good."

She pulled out a bottle of water and handed it to him anyway. "Stay hydrated.

He squinted at the bottle suspiciously.

"Something wrong?" She arched her eyebrow and clumsily made her way back to the fridge.

"Is this really just water? Or are you drugging me?" He asked.

Astra looked offended. "Seriously, Winter? Why would I do that?" She scoffed and grabbed yet another beer. "Why are you so afraid of everything? First me, now a water bottle."

He looked pointedly at the bottle in her hand. "Because you're drunk."

"Am not," she protested, as she opened the bottle and took a few sips of it.

He rolled his eyes. "Sure you aren't."

"Glad we agree." She smiled at him, the sarcasm going right over her head.

He shook his head, taking a sip of water after a moment.

"Why are you drinking that? You were right, I drugged it." She said, trying not to laugh

He peered at her. "I'm not sure if you're serious or not." He said slowly.

She turned around so he couldn't see her face while she was smiling. "Once you feel the side effects, you'll see."

He set the water down. Well, no matter what it is, it won't kill me. He thought.

She burst into laughter and quickly turned around. "Did I get you?! Were ya scared?"

He sorted. "Nope." He replied.

She sighed and banged her head on the counter, letting it rest there. "You're so boring."
