{Fourteen (42)} &diams A gift to the city, the veins of which have broken me down

[burnt_orangesky]

I suppose it is [pen taps] somewhat appropriate that my birthday be marked by a resurgence in these troublesome things; I did manage to evade being struck by rubber balls today, though it was a near thing once or twice.

Thank you for the cake, Composer, it was quite good.

[Just... eyebrow raise all that.]

It isn't something I would normally advertise--though I do recall I announced when I had been here for six months.

I will gracefully accept anything you choose to give me, of course.

[spandexisyouth]

But you can make a list of what you would like and I could pick from that. Or I will go find something on my own.

[spandexisyouth]

You are thinking of giving her chocolate? That normally means something, I think.

[man-genius.livejournal.com]

Who does math on the journals?! You have to be more obvious about it, woman!

Yeah you will, pulling this last minute thing. Who does that!

[burnt_orangesky]

I suppose I could always have wine with my cake, though I am not entirely sure that would go together very well.

[man-genius.livejournal.com]

Noooo not you too man-friend! Chocolate is delicious!

[books-and-toads.livejournal.com]

I do, actually. What kind of mystery are you looking for?

[spandexisyouth]

Yes it is! I was just noting that it means things sometimes! Not that it always does!

[live_ringer]

Pretty sure it's one of those situations that depends on the wine and the cake involved. Though, when in doubt, I guess there's no going wrong with tea.

[And speaking of tea, Fred'll be getting this tiny plush that Gene will come across in the Bazaar.]

He should totally give her some kind of training thing, like legwarmers.

[burnt_orangesky]

Honestly, I will be happy with whatever present you wish to give me. Perhaps a book, if I must name something.

[man-genius.livejournal.com]

This isn't a sometime! This is a birthday!

[burnt_orangesky]

Who wishes to be reminded they have been here for a year? You do not have to give me a gift, if you do not wish to.

I do, clearly.

[burnt_orangesky]

One without any murder, preferably.

That's what I was thinking. Small wrist or ankle weights?

[spandexisyouth]

I cannot seem to find the type of books that people like. I will figure something out.

[spandexisyouth]

It is. I do not know when it is significant or not. I am not good with that sort of details though I am trying to figure them out.

Either! Lol, she will B\ at them a little, but... wear them. For Youth.

[burnt_orangesky]

I look forward to seeing what you will decide to give me.

...that was one too many likes

[man-genius.livejournal.com]

When you like someone. Not like, like your bff like, but like like, like she's the one like.

This? Is just a like bff like. Got it?

[esoteric_rose.livejournal.com]

Happy birthday.

[And somehow a tiny bouquet of autumn flowers will come for her today.]

[books-and-toads.livejournal.com]

Got it. A good old fashioned detective story works, right? I've also got some puzzle-solving ones too.

[darcyredux.livejournal.com]

I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[So proud of himself.]

HE HAS ISSUES

[man-genius.livejournal.com]

But--nobody should be alone on their birthday, real or not. I want to.

Well don't. Clearly.

[darcyredux.livejournal.com]

[Hey, it was a beautiful misshapencircle. And it was frosted well...enough.]

He'll bring over little green ankle weights, then. :D

[spandexisyouth]

I hope that you like them!

[enchainement.livejournal.com]

[ There will be a tiny amigurumi likeness of Fred found in her room sometime tomorrow with a little note that has Qĭ's signature and a little ♥ ]

heehee

[spandexisyouth]

So it does not depend on the time? It only depends on the amount of like? But how is she (or he) supposed to know?
