[Hey Vat, it has been a while, but have a few moments of Gamzee staring into the camera. Just. Intense Staring. Head tilt. Slow blink.]

How the motherfuck do your pinkie human birthdays all work? I can't be wrapping my fuckin' pan 'round that shit.

[meddlefussyfang]

Birth... days...? Those are their versions of wriggling days, right?

[faygot]

Yeah, but like, the motherfuckers ain't all sit around and think about their motherfuckin' faults of being or no shit like that.

[meddlefussyfang]

They don't...? I'm a little dumbfounded by the prospect. I guess it's like their different expectations about relationships and the emotions involved.

[faygot]

Yeah. I mean like, I didn't all spend my chill fuckin' time thinkin' bout that shit but it seems real nice they got a day for motherfuckin' special being.

[meddlefussyfang]

[Please give her a moment, as Kanaya is trying to puzzle out the meaning of that sentence. And it's just not coming to her.]

What do you mean by "special being," Gamzee?

I think I will observe the other conversations happening, and see if any of their responses are sufficiently revealing...

[faygot]

What Wataru said was... a birthday is a day for being all real jazzed you are here. Like celebrating the motherfuckin' beauty of life, except you are just fuckin' celebrating the beauty of the life of one motherfucker.

[meddlefussyfang]

Really. Humans are really obsessed with positive, light, cheerful things, aren't they? Their love relationships are based on fondness, and their anniversaries of existence are about... cherishing that person. Weird.

[faygot]

yeah. Shit be weird but... I'm diggin' it, sis.

[meddlefussyfang]

I can certainly see the appeal in celebrating our fondness for our friends.

[faygot]

Maybe us bros should start doing that shit too. This motherfucker wouldn't all be minding to be celebrating how fuckin' jazzed I be with you doggs.

/just... sticking a late tag in here. doo dee doo.

[meddlefussyfang]

I like the idea. I'll want to know more about what they normally do in these celebrations, but what I've heard sounds... nice.

[As though she has no expectation of a sensible answer from him, Kanaya mutters.] ...How will we decide when to celebrate, though, with these weird short sweeps?

[faygot]

[never any sensible answers here.]

We could just all up and motherfuckin' pick a day. I mean, if you were all in the fuckin' market for wanting one.

[meddlefussyfang]

[Not quite never but it is certainly atypical. This one she can work with, though.]

We could. In fact, we could choose days that are within those 'months' that are affiliated with our symbols. It would ensure that our celebrations would neighbor those who share those affiliations.

[faygot]

Yeah!

Though... would that like all be meaning this is where Karkat's motherfuckin' birthday is at too?

[meddlefussyfang]

I... don't actually recall when the dates of those times are. But if Wataru's was Cancer, and his is around now, then that's probably right.

[faygot]

Yeah. I all got my fuckin' remember on for that. Cause see I were all hoping Wataru could be one of my motherfuckin' capribros. That's be a fuckin miracle, you dig? but then he weren't but he was all like one of Karkat's instead, and that was cool too.
