Party time!
Since the calendar had turned to the month of September, Iris had been counting down the days until their birthday. She'd been planning the party since back in June. Jai normally had no problem letting her handle the party planning itself.

She had invited all of the Titans, including Pipi and Mitzi, of course. And Jon, Corinna, Traya, Cindy, Jerry, Keith, Cerdian, and Wendi, too. And Riley, because if she didn't invite him, he'd probably tag along with Dinah anyway. She also told Cait that she could bring her mom along, if she wanted to get out of the Tower, and that her parents probably wouldn't mind the company at all. Jai probably invited some people too, though the guest list was pretty much the same between the two of them.

Everything was all set up, and Iris placed the wrapped package that had Jai's gift on the table where the other gifts would go. Grinning from ear to ear, she waited for everyone to arrive.

	He returns the hug and nods. Its hard to remember, even though he has memories of thousands of encounters with Iris at various ages, including a dozen variations on first meetings, she doesn't know him. At least she's as friendly here as she usually was. "Yeah, Steven Garrick. Nice meeting you." That even sounded weird. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Iris beamed at him. "It's nice to meet you too," she said, "You're on the JSA, right?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Mickey has helped a lot, but there's a lot of things that are taking getting used to. Still, its going ok. Man, this is weird." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Mickey is nice. So is everyone else on the JSA." Iris raised an eyebrow. "Why is it weird?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

He can't help but laugh. "Linear time." he replies with a shrug. "I figure you'd understand better than most. Last time I saw you, you were fifty-seven years old and playing with your new granddaughter at Thanksgiving. I have no idea how long its been since we had a meeting where we were close to the same age. The majority of people in this dimension I have only vague memories of or don't know at all, and have to learn from the beginning. The speedsters... I know them in a lot of possible timelines. So running into you when you've never met me is a little weird. Speed force stuff."

	"The speed force is weird," Iris said, "I'm a speedster, and I don't think I'll EVER fully understand it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Until recently, I never knew anything but the speed force. So its pretty easy. Its this dimension's physics, time, fixed objects... things like that that are weird." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
