Man - [The video comes on to see Yosuke perched on the lip of the well. He cracks his back with a series of pops that gives instant arthritis to anyone but the young.] Do you know what I miss, guys?

[His grin is pretty broad.]

Steak skewers, man! Steak skewers. Haha, who am I, Chie?

[He rubs the back of his head.] I wonder how she's doing... it'

We're gonna have to do something special for you, Yosuke!

[andallforone]

Damn right you are! All I got last year was Chie screaming at me!

... And a couple of sweet blades, I guess.

[protectsfools]

Why would she burst out of a cake? She and her clothes would be covered in frosting. And more importantly, how would she survive until then?

[andallforone]

No, no, the cake's hollow!

[protectsfools]

Why would a cake be hollow?

[just doesn't get it]

[andallforone]

For the girl to hide inside it! How has no one ever heard of this?!

I'd advise you to be careful what you wish for, but since it's your birthday...

[ Since it's his birthday, he can ask for whatever he wants. That's the implication, anyway. Pausing briefly, she pushes a few stray strands of black from before her eyes, then regards him a moment. ]

So aside from steak skewers and Rise jumping out of your cake, have you given any thought to what else you might want for your birthday?

[andallforone]

Pfff, I was just kidding.

[He cups his chin in both hands.] Nah, not much to be honest. There isn't much to get over here.

[a_la_turk]

I dunno, Yosuke. I can't think of very many guys who would kid about something like that.

[ Give her a minute to recover from the idea of Yosuke and Reno sitting side by side watching a girl burst out of a cake at a birthday party. Scream. ]

I guess I'll have to take that as a challenge then. [ And that right there? That earns something of a smile. Oh, it is on. ]

[video]

[andallforone]

Pfff, no one has to get my anything. [Not that he'd say no...]

[junesoholic]

... Huh? Why would you want someone to jump out of a birthday cake for you..? Isn't cake supposed to be eaten?

[ASDCNKSDNVSJADNVKDMNVK NO NANAKO DON'T LISTEN TO HIM BEING EVEN REMOTELY PERVY. Now he feels guilty!!]

[ SHE WILL TELL DOJIMA ON YOU, YOSUKE.. ]

It was a joke? [ There's a pause, and then a slight frown of confusion. ] I don't get it...

[ video ]

[andallforone]

It's - it's sort of an older people joke!

... Wait - oh God! No, no, no... it's not like that! It's just one of those - er - um - really... really unfunny jokes! Ahaha...

[akingmuststand]

You're going to be nineteen, right?

[video]

[andallforone]

Haha, yep! Man, that's really hard to believe... has it really been three years since I met Souji?

[video]

[akingmuststand]

Time can pass quickly, when things are eventful.

I shall owe you a gift, if that's alright.

[andallforone]

What? No way man, you don't have to! [But the flush of excitement is there.]
