So, it's September already, which means my birthday is coming up!

I mean, it's technically February back home, but I'm not gonna complain about celebrating my birthday early. Besides, that seems like way too complicated math to try and figure out what it should be.

[It actually is not that complicated. It's the 28th of February where he's from. C'mon Jojo...]

[But then again, this is the guy who struggled at determining the age of someone who was a baby 50 years ago...]

Anyway, I'm gonna be nineteen on the 27th. Just to give you guys the heads up. You know. [He grins.] In case you wanna get me something.

[mylegacy]

Sure.

[???]

[experiencepoints]

His new birthday's February 6th, if you want to rub that in.

[mylegacy]

Oh, thank you. I absolutely will.

[experiencepoints]

If I can interrupt you two flirting for a minute... Your new one is September 23rd.

[mylegacy]

. . . Thank you. But I think you're wildly misinterpreting.

[experiencepoints]

What, was my math wrong somewhere?

[mylegacy]

That's not what I'm referring to.

[experiencepoints]

Then what?

[mylegacy]

[LOUD SIGH]

We're not flirting. We're just talking.

[experiencepoints]

Wait, what? Seriously?

[mylegacy]

That's what I said.

[experiencepoints]

... As in, you actually weren't flirting, or you were and don't want to admit to it?

[She's bad at this.]

[mylegacy]

We weren't actually flirting.

[Lie. It's the other thing.]

[nextlineis]

Flirting? Are you stupid or something? We're both guys.

[experiencepoints]

What does that have to do with anything?

[nextlineis]

[Stupid it is!]

Since when do two guys flirt with each other?

[experiencepoints]

... When they're both attracted to each other?

[nextlineis]

[He starts laughing.]

What?

[experiencepoints]

Seriously, you two act like me and Bluebird-

[wait a minute. That was the same kind of banter she had with Bluebird -> Nightingale has a huge stupid crush on Bluebird but it's unrequited -> Joseph is denying the flirting and seems honestly ignorant about it -> Oh god Caesar must have a crush on Joseph, but it's unrequited, and if Joseph figures it out she'll be ruining everything for Caesar.]

Well... Maybe I'm wrong, I don't know much about how men act. Never mind?

[nextlineis]

[He doesn't seem to notice anything going on with Nightingale as he's too focused on settling down from laughing.]

We're [just] best friends, Nightingale. That's how guys are with each other.

[experiencepoints]

[Okay, cool, she can play this off. She can totally play this off. don't fuck this up nightingale.]

Really? Now I'm glad I have no interest in men.

[nextlineis]

You should, you know. You're not gonna be young forever.

[That's the sound of points whooshing over Joseph's head again, whoops.]

[ino]

No, you're totally right.

[experiencepoints]

Don't tell him that!

[ino]

And why not? He's too oblivious to realize for himself.
