Happy birthday, what would you like to have?

[... what did he just--]

1/2

[unluckychimera]

Oh, thanks! But you don't need to...

[3, 2, 1...]

2/2

[unluckychimera]

[Oh, wait... fhdajslkf that's Xelloss.]

You really don't need to get me anything.

[You have no idea how much that reaction cheers him up, Zel. He expected it too.]

My, and here I thought I would go through the trouble of asking. Next year perhaps?

[unluckychimera]

Oh, it's really not necessary. There's a reason I've never really made a big deal about my birthday before - it's happened when we were traveling together before now.

[And this is Zel scrambling to try and keep his cool. He was feeling good about not being as affected by Xelloss as usual... right up until now, when Xelloss has proved to still be able to catch him off-guard.]

[To him after the sins/virtues virus this scrambling was a very welcome sight indeed.]

Of course it has. Aren't they celebrated once a year?

[unluckychimera]

My general point was that I didn't make a big deal of this before and we don't need to start now.

[astralwhirlwind]

You really think so? One might say you've been missing out on this special occasion.

[unluckychimera]

Well, since I've never done it, I don't know what I'm missing, now do I? Maybe we should keep it that way.

Surely you can't be in the dark regarding what manner of traditions ensue on birthdays.
