I've been so busy with training and the squad and with the wedding getting so close that I almost forgot it's my birthday tomorrow.

Anyone feel like gettin' together and going out for a few drinks? First round's on me.

Happy birthday. Mine was yesterday.

[likeastraydog]

Heh. Thanks. Happy birthday to you, too.

Have we met before?

[number1112]

I think I've seen you around but we've not been introduced.

I'm 11-12.

[likeastraydog]

That's an unusual soundin' sorta name you've got there, 11-12.

I'm Abarai Renji. Nice to meet ya.

Happy Birthday!

[likeastraydog]

Thanks!

With a wedding coming up, it sounds like you have a lot of things to celebrate.

[likeastraydog]

It seems that way, doesn't it? The wedding's the big one, though. If my girlfriend and her brother get their way, that's going to be huge.

Happy birthday, Renji-kun! It is good to see that you are doing well. What would you like, if I may ask?

[likeastraydog]

Heh. Thanks, Kasumi. It's good to see ya around again.

Uh... What do you mean?

[heavenly_home]

Thank you. I was gone for quite a while, wasn't I?

For your birthday, of course. What would you like?

[pink_sugargirl]

You're birthday!? How could you forget?

I'll need to get you a gift. Hmmmm.

[likeastraydog]

I've had a lot of things on my mind lately. And birthdays aren't as important here in Soul Society as they are in the real world.

You don't have to get me anything, Chibiusa. Just a "happy birthday" will do.

[pink_sugargirl]

But I want to get you something. Or at least visit!

[likeastraydog]

Is that supposed to be a threat?

[likeastraydog]

Heh. Okay.

Know any good bars we can go to so you can keep your promise?
