It's a small place, so everyone knows each other pretty well. But if we were doing cards then someone should have told me! I didn't do any for Aides or Charon.

You're helping me get everyone's birthdays written down so I can return the favor, too.

Re: ehehehe

[featherduster]

To be fair, the original plan was just to help fulfill one of your Christmas traditions. But then I found out it was secretly your birthday too.

Re: ehehehe

[mykidisthebest]

It wasn't a secret! We had cake. And if you're going to do holiday cards for me, you should do them for the kids too. I'm old enough that I don't need them.

Re: ehehehe

[featherduster]

What, you don't want more cards? The kids were all really excited to write nice things for you. You wouldn't wanna deprive them of that, would you?

Re: ehehehe

[mykidisthebest]

[this is emotional manipulation]

I'm not depriving them of anything! It was really cute. But I obviously want to return the favor too.

Re: ehehehe

[featherduster]

[ AND IT WORKS ]

We'll just have to find out all of their birthdays, like you said.

Re: ehehehe

[mykidisthebest]

[it does]

You should have gotten them first! They're going to be suspicious now.

Re: ehehehe

[featherduster]

You're gonna have to do it to avoid suspicion.

Re: ehehehe

[mykidisthebest]

--Me doing it isn't going to avoid suspicion!

Re: ehehehe

[featherduster]

But it will deflect suspicion away from me! Haven't you ever heard of being a decoy?

Re: ehehehe

[mykidisthebest]

Why should I deflect suspicion away from you?

Re: ehehehe

[featherduster]

Cuz then they'll never see me coming!!!

[ * CITATION NEEDED ]

Re: ehehehe

[mykidisthebest]

That's not true at all! You're too conspicuous all the time!

Re: ehehehe

[featherduster]

--Hey! I can be perfectly stealthy if I need to be!

Re: ehehehe

[mykidisthebest]

I can turn invisible. That automatically makes me sneakier than you.

Re: ehehehe

[featherduster]

[ . . .








That's true ]

Re: ehehehe

[mykidisthebest]

How about this? We'll divide and conquer. I can ask about birthdays, but you have to find out what everyone likes so we can put gifts together.

[compromise!!]

Re: ehehehe

[featherduster]

[ HARUMPH ]

Fine. You got a deal.

Re: ehehehe

[mykidisthebest]

[holds out his hand to SHAKE ON IT]

Unrelated to our current topic, tell me when your birthday is.

Re: ehehehe

[featherduster]

[ SHAKES ON IT!!!! Deliberately holds his hand too tight. Stay winning. ]

July 21.

[ He says it with the exact same tone and expression as when he's just making shit up ]

Re: ehehehe

[mykidisthebest]

[ow hey that is one of my only hands!!! he tries to squeeze back harder to annoy Minuet but he's just got normal people strength]

Tell me the truth and I promise we'll celebrate on a different day. I already know you don't want to celebrate on the actual day.

Re: ehehehe

[featherduster]

[ He already knows what



Fuck, that's really thoughtful actually!!!!! This isn't allowed!!!!! HE WANTS TO BE MAD ABOUT IT BUT SOMEHOW HE ISN'T.

Deflates a little. ]

[mykidisthebest]

[oh that was actually his real birthday in the first place]

Re: ehehehe

[mykidisthebest]

[reaches for his cheek to tug on it]

Don't make it sound like a lie if it's the truth.

Re: ehehehe

[featherduster]

HEY--! Quit it, I'm delicate! You're the one who made assumptions!

[ Does not actually do anything to stop this noodle man though ]
