[There is some vaguely impatient tapping against the comm. It's followed by some shuffling, and then some sounds of either discontent or just plain irritation. Given who its coming from, this might be anticipated however.Naivety does not get one far it would seem, even with the one who is trusted most

What are you talking about, I wonder...

You have...chosen a birthday for yourself...?

[oblique_wisdom]

[His voice lowers and dances along that edge of incoherency. It's only to answer her implied question.]

I will tell you about it after I return from my outing with The Major.

[And he's back to normal.]

I did not, no. Bryn and Haine had chosen the date for me. I believe at the time, they said that all people should have one. Surely you knew that I was unaware of what mine would be--if one at all.

[sonotyourdog]

That was Lily & Bryn not me.

[oblique_wisdom]

Ah. True enough. You are entirely accurate.

[scionofwisdom]

Mmm. [She doesn't press it, if he says he'll tell her, he will.]

Ah, I see. Most people do, yes. Mine is...fairly soon as well.

[oblique_wisdom]

The difference between other people and me. Other people are "people."

[And he still doesn't know what he is.]

When is yours, Zelda?

[scionofwisdom]

I like you for what you are. [Whatever that might be.]

The nineteenth of this month.

[oblique_wisdom]

Then perhaps that's all I need.

[He thinks.]

What would you like to do for your birthday?

[scionofwisdom]

[She...smiles, but it's inaudible and he can't see it.]

I have not given the matter any thought. What of yourself? Have you plans for your...given day?

[oblique_wisdom]

No. Not in the least. I do not need anything. There may be very little reason for me to truly celebrate it, after all. Yours, however, is quite important. We should do something to commemorate.

[scionofwisdom]

..If that is what you believe, I do not think I can argue with that.

[oblique_wisdom]

You still haven't answered my question, Princess.

[scionofwisdom]

...[Can't get a thing by him.]

I...am unsure as to what I would like to do. I had rather...planned on not mentioning it at all, actually.

[oblique_wisdom]

And yet, you have already mentioned it to me. Therefore, we must do something. My point remained, valid and far from nullified.

[scionofwisdom]

...Fine. Then perhaps you will surprise me.

[oblique_wisdom]

[...Like Sheik knows how to surprise anyone.]

Oh, very well, Princess.
