[The feed clicks on to show a very, very excited young man bouncing up and down on his bed, bright blue eyes shining.]

Guess what guys?

[Yeah, he actually gives you a pause where you can answer. Although it doesn't last long.]

It's my birthday! Surprise!

[He laughs and flops back on his bed, holding his PCD up.]

And I know at least a certain someone

[leggierissimo]

Ah. Happy birthday, then, Sora-kun.

[Not that he didn't already know when it was.]

[Video]

[licensedhero]

Thanks Josh!

[He grins.]

So when is your birthday?

[Video]

[leggierissimo]

Oh, a month ago.

[Video]

[licensedhero]

Why didn't you tell me?!

[doestheickyjobs]

Oh yeah? Happy birthday.

[licensedhero]

Yeah!

[Beaming]

Thanks Axel! I was thinking of maybe making dinner or something for the house!

[Riku might not appreciate that though...]

[doestheickyjobs]

...Since when can you cook?

[Axel isn't sure he approves of this idea himself. Just because he likes fire doesn't mean he wants dinner burnt.

Shrugging it off.]

Anyway! It's your birthday. That means someone else should be cooking. [Pause.] Not me.

[licensedhero]

It shouldn't be that hard.

[But what Axel says makes him think.]

You're probably right. [He grins.] Are you no good at cooking too?

[buntails]

Happy Birthday! [This is Usagi, brightly smiling despite her worries after Watanuki's post.]

Is there a present you want?

[licensedhero]

Thanks Usagi! [Yeah, he was trying not to think about that one too much.]

Umm...A blanket. Or some cookies! Or something like that.

[buntails]

Got it and- I'll have to check if we have some sugar. But don't want something just for fun, too?

[licensedhero]

Ummm...

[He actually has to think about that one because toys what are those. He hasn't really thought about them in a while save for the little toy robot Hope gave him for Christmas. And then it hits him.]

Ice skates!

Perhaps with age you will gain some maturity and perspective.

[Here's Saïx, to ruin your birthday!!]

[video]

[licensedhero]

[Aaaaand flatline.]

Not that it's worked so well for you.

[video]

[savagepoise]

On the contrary, having no heart makes it easier to keep one's perspective. Age helps as well.

Have you reconsidered your choices, Sora?

[video]

[licensedhero]

[Yeah, that first bit is just gonna go right on by because erk. Was Saïx feed stalking him or something? How did he- Wait.]

Why do you ask?

[Video]

[holdnovirtue]

Happy Birthday Sora.

How old does this make you?

[Video]

[licensedhero]

Thanks Tieria!

I'm sixteen now! When is your birthday?

[Video]

[holdnovirtue]

Sixteen? Hm. I would have pegged you to be Hope's age.

My birthday? [Slight hesitation.] Remember that day when we walked around the frozen lake?

[Video]

[licensedhero]

Hope's age? How old is Hope?

Uh huh! [Pause.] Wait. It was your birthday? Why didn't you tell me?!
