[Lust thought about sending individual thank yous, but that seemed like a great deal of work. And she's noticed that it's common to draw attention to these sorts of things. So she decides to simply make a general address.]

I just wanted to express my appreciation for the kind...birthday acknowledgements.

[She really isn't sure what else to call the gifts and cards and words. It's all been a bit overwhelming.]

I'd forgotten it had come around again. It's only my second one.

I suppose I should get used to celebrating it. Or at least make an effort to remember the date next year.

Ah, you got your cake? I hope it's good! Scar said you like chocolate, so that's what I went with. Sorry I couldn't be there in person, I'm taking a break from traveling for a while.

[a_sin_for_him]

I did, thank you. It's very good.

That's quite alright, I don't blame you. Travel takes its toll.

[soundmind]

Yeah, and with that whole...turning into Pokemon thing and people leaving, I just had enough.

[...]

Ah, I know if Scar finds out he's going to ask, so just to let him know--yes, my friend came back with me, I'm not alone.

[a_sin_for_him]

That was an unfortunate week. I do appreciate my human body all the more, though.

I'll let him know, he'll be glad to hear it.

[soundmind]

Mm, I don't want him to worry, and he told me you two got a cottage together recently so I think it's safe to say you'd know if he's around first.

[Maka don't tease your homuncumom.]

I'd like to visit you both there sometime, if you're not busy. I can introduce you to Ken, too, since Scar already met him.

[ratherbelocky]

Well hey, happy birthday.

[Don't say it, York, come on, don't be rude, man--]

Gotta say, you look good for your age.

[Bro.]

[Voice]

[a_sin_for_him]

Thank you.

[Lust can't help but laugh a touch at that.]

Which one? Fourteen, twenty three, or thirty seven? They're all applicable, you know.

[Voice]

[ratherbelocky]

I was thinking two from what you said, but any one of those sounds more believable than that.

[Voice]

[a_sin_for_him]

Well, I suppose that's also applicable. I've only been living this life for over a year.

[pipers_son]

Ya gotta tell me these things, Lust! I woulda got ya somethin' nice if ya had reminded me too.

Want me ta get ya somethin' nice at Pewter? I hear they, uh, have lotsa shiny rocks, and whatnot.

[a_sin_for_him]

I didn't remember until it was mentioned. I didn't even know I had one, until last year.

I never say no to shiny things.

[pipers_son]

Well, I won't rob a bank, but I'll see what else I can do!

Like old things? I hear they do, ah... Whats it, fossils? Those sorta things.

[a_sin_for_him]

Old interesting things, yes.

But bank robbery's such an enjoyable diversion.

[solas_ion]

Happy birthd--hold on, second?

[a_sin_for_him]

I had one last year, now I'm having this one.

I wasn't human before I came here, we didn't acknowledge birthdays, let alone celebrate them.

[solas_ion]

Damn. Look pretty good for two, if you ask me.

[a_sin_for_him]

If I remember correctly, I'm technically twenty three.

[Here's Blake, looking a little calmer and a lot less furry than you saw him last.]

Aw, hell. I didn't know that. It was your second birthday here?

[video]

[a_sin_for_him]

I didn't know, either, until I was reminded.

Second birthday in general. It wasn't something acknowledged or kept track of, in my previous life.

[video

[lieutenantantichrist]

That so? Even Jehovah's Witnesses keep track of that, even if they don't do much about it. You have to have something to put on your forms.

[video]

[a_sin_for_him]

Undead abominations don't have many forms to fill out.

[foolishwren]

HEY-- did Envy give you a thing yet?

_{[She knows this question is coming out of the blue but she HAS TO KNOW.]}

[Video]

[a_sin_for_him]

Define 'thing'.

[Video]

[foolishwren]

You knooow... a thing.

_{[SHE'S SMILING SO BIG, LUST. THERE IS NO OTHER THING SHE COULD POSSIBLY BE TALKING ABOUT.]}

Are you referring to the desperate, confused cry for help from a diseased and dying brain that showed up in my inbox this morning?
