[ On this fine day, Booster Gold is wearing a party hat. ]

Happy negative 428th birthday to me!

In case you were wondering, no, it's not too soon after Christmas to start showering me with gifts and attention. It's never too soon. Or too late, for that matter. I also accept cash, gift certificates and those little homemade I.O.U. coupons for backrubs and household chores. And well wishes, I guess, if you're cheap.

Oh, and macaroni portraits! Glitter obviously not optional.

[ He blows into a party noise maker, tosses some confetti, and the video shuts off. ]

[Jaime had opened video to wish Booster a happy birthday. He perched his communicator on his desk to scroll through the responses when... well...

Have a nice view of Jaime's ceiling and a guffaw.]

[Bart has 100% heard the name Booster Gold since Booster got here there's no way he knows all the same people and hasn't heard it. He just, you know, probably was paying zero attention at the time.]

Huh. You're a time traveler? That's so crash! I mean time travelers seem to be pretty rare even in worlds where they should totally exist it's like the first thing people make movies about right well time travel and zombies hey do you think there are time traveling zombies?

[you_tried]

[ where the hell to start with that ]

Uh, well, I'm not an expert, but zombies are definitely a thing, so I'm gonna go with yes.

[katastrophe]

If you haven't been born yet, does that mean if someone hunted down and killed your ancestors right now, you'd cease to exist?

[you_tried]

Well, that's creepy. Are you offering?

Macaroni portraits of you, I'd think.

[you_tried]

Naturally!

Yeah, I-- don't think time actually works that way, man. Negative birthdays aren't actually a thing. Sorry.

Are you a time expert?
