[At the Cat's Eye Café today there is a cake! A large cake! A large cake that looks suspiciously like it was designed to have a person hiding inside of it. There is also a teenage boy circling it in a likewise suspicious manner. Why? Because written on the side of the cake in bright letters is:

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KIDA MASAOMI-KUN~!He still doesn't

That's a huge cake. . .

[AAH THE PERSON IN IT]

[whatakida]

Do you think I should get a refund?

[ike_b_ukuro]

S-she's really inside...

[whatakida]

Were you hoping with all of your hope that it was Anri hiding inside there~?

[ike_b_ukuro]

--No, I wasn't! What do you have a cake big enough for a girl for anyway?

[whatakida]

... Mikado I'm hurt.

[ike_b_ukuro]

It bit you in the end, didn't it?

Here, here's your present.

[PRESENT: GIFT]

[whatakida]

--You did remember!! I knew I could depend on you!!

[BROHUGS FOR GIFTS]

[ike_b_ukuro]

Of course I did. Don't get excited, there wasn't much I could get trapped here.

[whatakida]

You know the old saying that it's the thought that counts! And inside here is Mikado's heartfelt and specially-selected gift for me!

[ike_b_ukuro]

Okay, okay-- well, open it already!

--whoa, how'd you find something like this here?

[taking it out and fumbling with it for a moment before pointedly holding his wrist out to him]

[ike_b_ukuro]

[grins CLEARLY THE DOWNPLAY WAS AN ILLUSION he is excited for this gift. helping him put it on]

More like how would I find it anywhere else, actually. Have you met the guy who runs the stables? I got it from him.

[whatakida]

The guy who runs the stables...

--wait, you don't mean that guy who looks and acts and is REALLY suspiciously like that one video game character.
