    ...what? I know, it's not exactly putting my name and number on the line, here, but considering how long I've spent trying to prevent people from guessing what hemisphere I'm in, it's a big deal for me. Any takers?
    How can I put anymore eeks? I'm shocked. Wow. You'll have to feed us clues every once in a while Robin.

    I say he's American living in Spain. I'm almost positive he's American.

    Destiny isn't a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice; it is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved.

    Someone please PM me when the reveal happens. This is like waiting for Return of the Jedi to debut--will I be alive in three years and will I still care?!! Obviously yes to both. Personally all that charm of his means he's from the south.

    Yes he's seventeen. Unless he's had a birthday since then. How often do those things come around, once or twice a year?

    That is a good thread to read through. We had a lot of fun trying to guess.

    "Sun never sets on the British Empire," you know ...

    Actually, I'm eighteen - mir was kind enough to make my birthday thread.

    Indeed, and I had a lot of fun reading the reasons for the guesses. Same applies here, it's kind of morbidly fascinating...
