Hi!!

[ Surprisingly cheery greeting, but why not, right? He's been eager to make this post for a while, but now that he has the time... ]

So there's lots of folks here who have been here for a while. That's cool and all. Power to you, folks! Had a question. How do you know when it's a birthday? You see, I have a friend! And I think his birthday's coming up soon. A lot of people here are friends with him, so I was thinking of doing something nice.

[ Not that he has much to do with, he's been running around like a headless chicken for a while now. ]

Maybe like a little get together? Cake? Can we get cake that's not made of lizard flesh here? I'd like that. I can't bake... or we could just get hamburgers... Iggy will be so mad but it's Noct's birthday, man [ That last bit is removed. ]

How do you guys do it? What's the best spot to have a little party 'round here? Let me know? Please?! I only have three days!!

[ Attached is a drawing of a cute little chocobo with cute eyes. ]

Little Boko says thanks!

I don't think anyone celebrates them here.

[ this could, admittedly, be the bias of someone who's never celebrated a birthday period. ]

What!!

[ Oh come on, partypooper. ]

That'd just make everyone miserable! Even if you don't know your birthday, you could always make one up! Everyone deserves a birthday, right?

[forcevisions]

I'm not telling you that you can't.
But I haven't seen anyone else talking about it. It's like you said, hard to keep track. Not to mention, we have more important things to do.

They don't.

[Two people whose judgment should definitely be trusted.]

[forcevisions]

Do we even have parties here, other than Recollection Day?

Time has a way of escaping people, especially here.
Though I can't say that I'm against a party.

Just make sure it's properly stocked.

[argenteums]

Oh you bet it'll be stocked! I mean, he's getting married when we go back, so the least I could do is give him a proper birthday bash!

... dunno where I'd have it though. Especially around here. Got any ideas?

[selfimage]

Where?
Well, it's really the people who make it a party, isn't it?
Bu-u-ut.....
You could always pitch a tent.
There are plenty of places for that.

cant say i know the guy, but happy birthday to him anyway

you can get some food from the kitchen but cake might not be prepared to start. maybe someone on the team knows how to bake? maya does, and kagari, for sure

and for a present, im pretty good at making stuff, if that helps... depends on what you want to get him

[argenteums]

[ Now this guy sounds interesting. ]

Ooh, I know Maya! She was the cutie in a dress that looked like a cake that mission...

[ It feels like it was so long ago. ]

Are you sure though?? I was thinking of getting him a cool new fishing rod. He likes fishing! Dunno if I can get him any videogames he likes here, but think he could use a nice rod that won't break on him!

[webdesigned]

haha

yeah thats the one

sure, im sure. a fishing rod, huh? i can probably do that... we are talking just regular, right, no tech additions

( he can do that... it's just hard when he wants to add computers to everything. )

[ He can't believe he made a public post about this. Isn't it bad enough he has to spend his 21st birthday stuck here to begin with? After quelling the urge to stick his head in a hole in the ground, he finally responds with- ]

Now's really not a good time to party. Won't say no to cake, though -sans the lizard flesh.

And if it's not baked by you.

[argenteums]

Hey, I bet I could totally bake a good cake, Noct! You're just being a wimp about it :P

[ Snerk. ]

Of course it'd be better if we had Iggy here... he'd make you a great cake, but we gotta make do! Maybe someone'll be just as good. What do you think about a hamburger cake?

[armigers]

Yeah, let's leave the baking in someone else's hands for now. Besides, I'd rather not make a big deal of it.

[ Considering some of his friends are not going to be there with him to celebrate. It's also his first birthday without his dad, a fact that he's trying not to dwell on too much. ]

Maybe just staying in and watching something on Maya's Tekflex app?

text; un: redlion

[secondnature]

Wait, are you trying to make a cake out of hamburgers?

Would Noctis like that?

[Keith, for his part, is absolutely terrible at celebrating birthdays. He doesn't know if anyone has, because he definitely missed celebrating his first birthday on the team. For him, it's something he'd probably rather avoid doing.]

text; un; chocobro

[argenteums]

Huh? No!! Aw man, did it end up looking like that?? Though a hamburger cake, huh...

That actually sounds like something he'd like?! Do you know anyone who'd actually do it?! Noct likes cake too, though, so I gotta get him a normal one as well!

[secondnature]

Uh maybe just pile a bunch of hamburgers on top of one another? If you have enough patties, it becomes a cake, right?

[That's a "no" on him knowing anyone who can make it.]

[well since he asked.......]

We don't really have big ones here, especially since counting time gets complicated real quickly. I know I've been here for about a year now, for example, but the day it was when I left home wasn't the day it was in Oska when I arrived-- so, even if I technically turned 24 already, I could actually be a little more or a little less than that.

That said, it was just my partner's birthday and [UG H DOES HE HAVE TO CALL CONNOR A FRIEND] a friend and I did a little something to celebrate. Just do what you think the guy would like.

text; un; chocobro

[argenteums]

... man, when you put it like that, it sounds like it's a doorway to confusionville. I've just been here... long enough to know that back home, at least, it would have been time for Noct's birthday...

[ He knows Noctis isn't feeling all that great about being here, but he wants to brighten things up for him regardless. ]

That's good advice, though his idea of a birthday would be to play videogames and sleep it all away! What did you and your partner do for his? Give me the gossip!

[pummelling]

Lesson one: nothing you're gonna do with ALASTAIR makes a complete amount of sense.

[even for him and his messy ass world, tbh.]

Honestly? We just had people he liked around to spend the day with him. Cake and presents and that stuff. He was pretty happy to have anything for him at all, since his real birthday happened when we were stuck in the maze.

Uh, sure... how much experience are we talking here? Can't have anything but the best for my buddy! Or he won't eat it!

Nah, he knows I'm doing it. Just wanted to give him something good and special, you know? Come on, do people go announcing surprises where you come from?
