[Today ( . . . whatever day that is), Hubert is out and about on a quest from early to late morning. Said quest takes him to the grocery store, then the smithy, and finally the item store. Ingredients, materials, and supplies; all check. Satisfied, he begins heading back to House #28 with a handful of bags in tow and nodding in greeting at anyone he passes on the way.

He considers dropping by the library and almost turns around to do so, but decides against it in favor of getting everything else taken care of.]

[ohi thar, little brother. Asbel was just beginning to wonder where you wandered off to.]

Hubert... You went shopping?

[Oh, he didn't think you'd wonder or anything. S-sorry. ): He nods, almost apologetically.]

I thought we should do something after nearly two months . . .

You really forgot.

[There's the faintest of smiles to go with it. . . . No, wait, did that sound like criticism -- ]

N-not that there's anything wrong with that.

... [Yeah, he has no idea what you're talking about, Hubert, and the look on his face confirms that.]

[You're lucky he's more visibly patient today. A beat, then a small smile.]

That just goes to show how you put others before you.

[Oh, Brother, so thoughtful and compassionate and amazing. To the point you forgot the day you turned older, but that's okay.]

Ahh... Hubert, that's really kind of you to say, but... I'm not sure what you're talking about. What did I forget?

[Why do you keep pressing, it's not necessary to remember right this instant -- what's a good way to get him to remember without smashing it in his face?]

How old are you, Brother?

Eh? Ahh, well... I'm eighteen. [So he thinks, anyway.]

H-how did I forget my own birthday?!

You had a lot on your mind at the time . . . It's no wonder you forgot. But you've remembered now.

[He sighs.]

I guess it's only fitting, huh? I haven't wished you or Cheria a happy birthday in seven years, and now I can't even remember my own.
