[lastexit]

...Oh. Yeah.

It's today. Not a big deal.

[betheman]

Oh!~

Then, congratulations! [He cheers.] ...Though, I suppose I should ask, what day it is...before saying this...

[lastexit]

March 2nd. I don't really know how time zones change things.

*She seems her usual unenthusiastic self on this.*

[betheman]

I do not think they affect them at all...

..Auh, but it does mean I am early then... [Hmmm.... He crosses his arms, apparently thinking about something.] Hmnnh...well, it is good to know then..! Now, I can properly congratulate you!

[and also draw a present]

[lastexit]

You don't need to do anything-

*This is what she was avoiding, people doing things. It still felt too- new. For people to care and want to deal with her.*

[betheman]

Auh... [Oh...]

....Do you...prefer not to celebrate, perhaps..?

[lastexit]

It isn't that- I'm just, it's weird. I've been here two months. I wasn't really expecting people to do anything for me.

*Maya's constant state is 'I'm not worth it' and it shows.*

[betheman]

Mnh...I see...

[He's gonna do it. Maybe.] ...Then...

If you prefer then, I shall keep from, sharing this information with any..!

So your birthday, can remain secret! [still making a present tho]

[lastexit]

You don't have to lie for me or anything, just- I kinda figured today would be a quiet day just for me.

*One perk of her abilities, her powers make it easier for her to keep secrets. Which when you realize how many secrets she just knows, is really unfair.*

[betheman]

Mnh, I do not think it would be lying....It would require going out of my way to bring up in the first place- so, it is easy to help ensure that sort of peace and quiet!

[lastexit]

My sister ordered a cake and had it sent here this morning. Some people might've noticed. If they ask, you don't need to lie.

But other than that, yeah, just... don't bring it up?

[betheman]

Auh! Understood! I shall hold my tongue, unless pressed!

[He initially smiles as he says this- but curiosity presses him forward.] ...She sent you an entire cake, however..?

[lastexit]

She ordered it from the bakery in town. Marvels of technology.

Katie's- she knows how to do exactly what she set out to do? If she decided 'I get a cake on my birthday' then I get a cake.

[betheman]

Oh! I see...

[He thinks anyway. He's working himself through the answers.] Katie... ...Oh! [of course.] Your sister.

...I am surprised, that she sent you a 'whole' cake, however....is that not a bit much for one person?

[lastexit]

She didn't tell me she was doing this, I assume it's meant to be shared at a party.

She also likes going overboard.

[betheman]

Mnhhh.... ...that is somewhat rude, but, I suppose you would know her best...

[...Feels Rude tho.] ...Will you be able to keep it somewhere, at least?

[lastexit]

Katie tries a little hard after- anytime I'm away from home she'll go out of her way.

I left the cake in the common room. I assume it's all been eaten, or someone put it in the fridge.

[betheman]

Oh! ...That...is certainly a good way to have it dealt with, yes... [Ahaaaa...yep, it'll be gone by sundown.]

....Mnh... ...presumably at least, you will not have too many 'large' packages you do not expect now though, yes?

[He'll...he'll try to make the art piece small, it's fine,]

[lastexit]

There shouldn't be, everyone who would have sent me something big didn't.

Maybe if I started here in the fall I'd be less weird about my birthday.

[betheman]

Mnh- because you would know others more by then...

[Well. He just gives a reassuring nod.] ...Then for now...here is to a quiet birthday for you, yes?
