That's different from a 'fake hell' birthday, right? Grats.

[ Smallest beat. ]

If you'd given us even one day of warning...

[syckophant]

Hmm! Well, it's a day I chose that's kind of similar to my real birthday, so that has to count for something!

Fufufufu, if I'd have given you warning and you all threw me a real party I might have died from...??? Embarrassment? Probably embarrassment.

[at_heart]

Heh, I guess I meant more like, you did some math. I know some people just kind of throw themselves a party every winter, and that's fine, too.

[ Crossing his arms over his chest. ]

Doesn't have to be a party if you don't want one, but we could've had presents. Or a cake.

[syckophant]

Kind of. Its hard to calculate specifically, since days here and seasons here aren't the same as back home but my birthday is January 10th, sixteen days after Christmas and ten days after the new year. We have Christmas here, and so after every Christmas, I just wait a few days to call it "my birthday"!

[It just OOCly happens to be around his birthday, no big deal!]

[at_heart]

So, a combination. It's a fake hell birthday, but you've had enough of them to add up to a real one?

[ Wink. ]

Well, congrats on 21. I think that's significant for some people.

[syckophant]

Haha, that's close enough.

[He should be 19 if he's counting days but he's not, he's counting it by how many Christmases there have been and no one can take that from him!]

Right, it's the age where you are allowed to drink alcohol in many places! But I could always do that here, I've just not been overly interested in doing so.

[at_heart]

Heh, yeah, basically.

[ The important thing is Eichi's in a good mood, tbh. ] [ A glance towards Tsukky and all the cake-fussing. His lips curve up. ]

—You wanna invite anyone else? From off-unit?

[wayofthehousekeeper]

Hey Lupine, how're you at last minute barbecues?

[at_heart]

[ Snort. Well, he rolls up his sleeves! ]

I guess we'll find out, but the good news is: if it doesn't turn out great, we've given him motivation to let us know ahead of time next 'birthday'.

So no pressure.

[ Into the kitchen to scrub up! ]

[wayofthehousekeeper]

I'd say a bit of our pride is at stake as well, so let's do our best.

[ Aster slides off his scarf and coat for his part, folding them neatly to set aside. ]

I really should get something with shorter sleeves...

[at_heart]

[ Cracking his knuckles, tosses a bit of a smirk over his shoulder. ]

I don't really do half-assed.

[ So don't worry about that. ] [ But the sleeves comment has him looking Aster over a little bit more critically. ]

Our whole thing's layers, so you've definitely got options.

[ He's in this himself today, sans the coat since they're indoors, so he's peeling off his gloves and setting them on the little kitchenette set. ]

How're you doing in the points department so far? Do you need someone to spot you for a couple outfits?

[wayofthehousekeeper]

I haven't really started yet, but that's because I've been taking my time in getting to know my surroundings. Hopefully I'm not falling too far behind because of it.

[ He's been enjoying the light exploration honestly. ]

[at_heart]

[ ...Huh. It's been five days. He's pretty sure that by that point he'd... ]

Well, when you see lives go up, make sure you go say hi. Especially if they're ones where one of us is hosting, you get more points for that.

[ —Man, it's been five days. Sure, they were a hectic five days, and he wasn't really feeling... like himself, but still. ]

—Do you have any... questions?

[ ......Day 429 is a little bit blurry, did they really just talk about the kitchen and get his color and name sorted out? ]

[wayofthehousekeeper]

[ He gives a bit of a smile in turn. ]

None I'd like to ask today, given it's a day for celebration. Later would be good though.

[at_heart]

[ ........ ]

We don't really get any warning on the games, you know. Could have one later tonight.

[wayofthehousekeeper]

I'd still like to keep up a good mood. I promise I'll catch one of you once we've finished the celebration.

[at_heart]

[ Still feels bad! Still feels like they accidentally left you in a terrible place for the next trauma session. ]

As long as it's a promise.

[wayofthehousekeeper]

It is. And I don't think I like breaking mine.

[at_heart]

Heh. Same.

[ But in the meantime, tugging an apron on. ]

So, barbeque. Can we go rare on Eichi's?

[ He asked Tenn and got confirmation and everything. ]

Medium-rare for me.

[wayofthehousekeeper]

Sure, sounds like you're more familiar with people's preferences, so I'll follow your lead on this one.

[at_heart]

I'll try and make sure I'm leading us in the right direction.

[ Gettin' out food, doing the things you'd do with food. how do you prep meat for barbeque, something something sauce and/or spices probably. ]

[wayofthehousekeeper]

[ Something something magical handwave. ]
