[Video] Has it been so long?

[ The video feed accidentally clicks on as Sora was looking at his calender on the phone. He's scrolling over it not really paying attention until the date actually catches his attention. His eyes go wide for a moment in surprise and then a soft smile settles on his face. He really should pay more attention to these sort of things, but it's easy to lose track of time in the bubble. ]

Wow, I've been here a year already.

[ Sora laughs lightly. ]

Man, I can't believe I missed my birthday too. That's so lame.

[ Despite the realization Sora doesn't seem too bummed out about it. The past few weeks had been well...interesting to say the least. ]

Oh, but I have missed my birthday too and everyone said it's okay to celebrate them even despite that.

_{[the Gear smiles a little.]}

Happy Birthday.

[ Oh someone new! ]

Thanks! And happy birthday to you too!

When's yours?

Oh, thank you so much.

My birthday is on the 25th of December.

Right after Christmas! Do you get a lot of presents?

[ Sora seems actually excited by the thought. He hopes so anyway. ]

_{[She shakes her head and smiles.]}

Not really.

[ Sora's face fell a little. ]

Oh...sorry.

It's still fun though right?

_{[The smile never leaves her face.]}

Don't worry about it. I'm just glad when I can spent my birthday with my friends.

_[...]

...How old are you now?

[ Sora nodded. ]

You're right. That's what's really important.

Me? I'm sixteen.

Sixteen...?

_{[She laughs a little. That's so much older than her. She is only four. But she isn't a human, so human years don't apply to her either.]}

I see.

How old are you?

[ She looked about his age, at least not that much different. What a surprise that would be. ]

I'm four.

_{[Are you surprised?]}

[ Very.

Four! But you look my age!

_{[She chuckles.]}

But I'm not human.

_{[And at that she glances at her wings.]}

[ Sora stares for a moment, noticing the wings for the first time. ]

Oh, so...what are you?

[ Sora's not trying to be rude, just curious. ]

_{[She smiles a little sad.]}

...I am a Gear.

A gear?

[ Sora tilts his head confused. The only gears he can think of are the types found in clocks and some toys. ]

What do you mean you're a gear?

I wonder how should I explain...

_{[Everybody in her world know what Gears are!]}

A Gear is a being created by humans, but... I'm different.

So...someone made you?

[ He stared a little harder then before catching himself. ]

Like a robot or something?

No, not like a robot. And I wasn't made. I'm different from other Gears...

But you said...

[ Okay well she did say she was different. Sora still didn't really get it. ]

I guess it doesn't matter here though right? You're just like the rest of us.

But... Idon't exactly look like everyone. _{[She glances at her wings.]}

I have wings and a tail.

So? That doesn't mean you're different. [ Sora laughed. ]

Not really. I know someone else here who has a tail and I don't think he's different.

Back home my friend Donald looks liked a giant duck, and Goofy kind of looked like a dog.

King Mickey was a mouse, but I didn't think they were different than me.

[ He put his hand over his heart. ]

We're all the same really. Right here.

_{[She listens to him carefully and tilts her head a little.]}

Here?

_{[She also puts her hand over her heart and looks down at it slightly confused.]}

That means... where?

Ah...

[ Sora laughed and smiled. ]

Our hearts!

We all have... the same hearts?

_{[She doesn't seem to understand.]}
