Ifurita staggered up to Makoto, and embraced him. "Oh, Makoto!" she said. "It has been eighty-seven million, six hundred sixty thousand hours since the last time I saw you."

Makoto didn't answer. After a moment, Ifurita raised her face from his shoulder, and found Makoto silently mouthing numbers to himself.

"Um, that is ten thousand years," Ifurita said. "But that is not important now... Makoto?"

Makoto still didn't answer right away. "Are you sure that's ten thousand years?" he finally said. "I only 'get' eighty-seven million, six hundred thousand hours 'even'."

"Do not forget the leap days," Ifurita said patiently.
