Wild 39

Well, looks like the birthday came and passed pretty quietly for once this year. Sure, I had a party, but it was a small one an' I didn't really do much other than eat a buncha cake with a few friends and ruin An-chan's efforts to prank me. Sorry 'bout that, An-chan~ Not much gets me after all these years of folks tryin' to trick me on my birthday. Makes me kinda wonder if this is what birthdays are really like for folks once they start turnin' old. ...I'll haveta look and see if there's a pattern durin' the year for the rest of ya old timers~ ...But I guess it was also quiet prolly 'cause mosta those I'd usually spend my birthday with were in Osaka at the time. I was kinda sad that I wasn't with 'em for it, but I ain't mad 'bout it. I'm the one who didn't wanna go back home with everybody in the first place, thanks to Otou. It's fine, though, and they apparently threw their own party for me down there since we couldn't all be together~ Kura sent me tons of pictures that had me laughin' my ass off, since they found a...um, portable stand-in for me~ It was weird as hell to see. And I tried not to think too much 'bout why Kuranosuke decided to get a Antonio Banderas blow up doll of all things in the first place. ...Or what happened to it afterwards. But I liked it. The pictures and knowin' they were all havin' fun for my sake was a nice birthday gift~ ...Ookini~ You guys are the greatest~!

...Though that also means Kura's birthday is comin' up here real fast. Are all y'all still gonna be in Osaka for that one? ...I don't wanna be apart for that one too.

[OOC: For anyone not familiar with it, "ookini" = Kansai-ben for "thanks bunches".]
