Um... The drone boy who calls himself my brother said my birthday is coming up in a few days. [pause] I've never had a birthday before, so I'm not sure what to do for it. I'm supposed to get presents, aren't I? But there isn't anything I can think

Oh? How old will you be?

[kindlichekaiser]

200,001, I think! [Sorry about your brain thar, Klaus]

[myblimpisbigger]

[Wat.]

Aaah, that's right. You mentioned being practically ageless before and I... must have... forgotten.

[Because wat.]

[kindlichekaiser]

I was, hmm, born I guess you could say, when human imagination first began. So, about 200,001... Give or take a couple of years.

[Pause; Amused] Are you alright?

[dodo_master]

You know, something similar happened to me! I had forgotten when my birthday was, until the drone mother in our house awoke me one day to give me a present. It was quite a shock!

[kindlichekaiser]

I didn't really forget, I just never really had one to begin with.

But it should be fun to have a party!

[dodo_master]

Didn't have one? How is that possible?

Oh, definitely! Seems like there's one going on around here all the time. It's a good thing! Keeps people's spirits up.

[kindlichekaiser]

Well, I was just sort of...created. I didn't have parents either.

I want to make everyone happy-- it's nice to forget your problems for a little while.

[sting_like_a]

But presents are the best part of having a birthday!

Well, aside from the cake~

[kindlichekaiser]

But, there's nothing I want. I don't want people to waste money on things I don't need... I just want to be with everyone.

Is there something special about birthday cake?

[sting_like_a]

My, aren't we modest~? It's not a waste, though, especially if it makes you happy on your special day! That's the whole point.

Hmm. Kind of! It's made just for you, after all... And you can blow out the candles and make a wish~

[kindlichekaiser]

I suppose I should let them, then. [She gives a light, amused sigh]

A wish? Does it come true? [Curious]

[updollsdresses]

It's traditional to spend your birthday at a party with friends.

[NOT LIKE HE WOULD KNOW FROM PERSONAL EXPERIENCE AMIRITE]

Are you sure you wouldn't like anything, Empress? [Like, I don't know, the severed heads of your enemies? He can do that!]

[kindlichekaiser]

[Smile] Does this mean you'll come to my birthday party, should I have one? [because somehow you've managed to become her friend Teatime. Don't ask me, idk either]

I'm not sure, I never thought about it before. I don't normally get gifts. [She's quiet a moment, thinking hard] I like flowers, and ribbons are pretty.

[Buy her flowers Teatime. FUCKING DO IT]

[updollsdresses]

... Certainly. I'm... not much for parties, but... I'll try.

[So much confusion going on here. what is friends]

I'll keep that in mind.

[kindlichekaiser]

I'd very much appreciated it if you came.

No one knows how long we're going to be here, and if this is my last birthday I want to celebrate it with those I care about. [Smile] After all, it's not every day you turn 200,001.

[wizardoftheweek]

That is a good wish, I think.

[kindlichekaiser]

Thank you. [She smiles a little] Are you going to come, if I have a party?

[wizardoftheweek]

... No. I don't do well in groups.

[kindlichekaiser]

Oh... Okay. [She gives a little smile though] You should stop by and at least say hello though, please? I think Gokudera would like to see you.
