Ah, that... I think I was probably a bit younger than you are? So it's been several years now.

[feistytrader]

...How old are you now?

[At least he didn't underestimate his age to around his. At least he did that much.]

[preybeforemeals]

...I'll be turning twenty-two toward the beginning of next month.

[feistytrader]

[...!!!]

What day? I can ask Milla and Ludger to make you a wait a minute that doesn't work he doesn't- well, I can get you something nice.

[Birthdays are important, after all.]

[preybeforemeals]

...The third. March third.

[YOU KNOW, HE WASN'T EXACTLY EXPECTING THAT, BUT HERE WE ARE.]

...Thank you, by the way. For wanting to do something. My family usually does, but they aren't here, obviously - I really do appreciate it.

[And judging by the warmth coming through the crystal, he...actually does, good lord.]

[feistytrader]

Of course. No one should spend their birthday alone.

[March 3rd... He should tell Ryuunosuke, and... And he doesn't know any more of Tsukiyama's friends, but-]

What do you usually do on your birthday?

[preybeforemeals]

...Usually it involves things that I'm not about to ask you to do for me here.

[DINNER THEATRE \o/]

Don't worry, I'm sure it'll be fine. We can find something.

[feistytrader]

...Well, what would you want to do on your birthday? [...] Besides that stuff you're not about to ask me to do.

[Because he has a feeling that he's better off not knowing.]

[preybeforemeals]

Honestly, I'd be all right just spending time with people - simple pleasures are the best sometimes, n'est-ce pas?

[feistytrader]

...Are we talking all your friends people, or invite everyone willing and then some over, like White wanted?

[He is the birthday magician. Let him work his magic.]

[preybeforemeals]

...My friends would be preferred, though White-san and her brother count among that particular number.

[feistytrader]

Who else?

[Ryuunosuke, obviously, but-]

I don't really know who your friends are.

[preybeforemeals]

Well, outside of those two, there's Uryuu-san, obviously, and Cilan-san would be nice as well...

[..and we don't invite Junko to parties so hang on a second- ]

...Invite Kaneki-kun for me as well, if you'd like. It's been a while since I've seen him in person, it might be nice to catch up.

[AND THAT'S PROBABLY A TERRIBLE IDEA BUT YOU KNOW WHAT, IT AMUSES HIM SO THERE'S THAT.]

[feistytrader]

[Ryuunosuke, Cilan, White, and Black. ...And Kaneki.

He can do that. That's not a problem at all.]

No problem. We've got a lot of friends in common.

[Which makes it extra easy. ...But there is one problem, isn't there? A planning problem.]

That just leaves one question.

[preybeforemeals]

Oh...?

[You know, he can actually think of a few problems here, but anyway- ]

Go on.

[feistytrader]

Why aren't you going to eat a cake? Or any food, for that matter?

[...Obviously Silver knows why, but... Tsukiyama's been doing this for a while. He can make up the excuse.]

[preybeforemeals]

[Oh, that.]

First of all, you would be surprised at how easy it is to get away with not eating anything in front of people - it's a matter of telling them that you've already eaten, or you'll get something in a minute, or you're too excited or worked up to eat anything just yet, and they'll generally leave you be.

As for the cake, I've got horrible allergies.

[feistytrader]

All...er... Right, right, you can't feed people certain stuff because they have allergies, and it will kill them a lot, right?

[...Good... Good job, Silver.]

[preybeforemeals]

...As opposed to only slightly killing them?

[Tsukiyama, no.]

[feistytrader]

...I think so? I didn't pay much attention to that part.

[NO FUCKING SHRIMP OR HE DIE]

[preybeforemeals]

Well... Anyway, that would be about the gist of it regardless of how much killing happens, though, yes.

[NO FUCKING CAKE OR HE DIE]

[feistytrader]

What part of it are you allergic to?

[Silver you really don't need to get this far into it-]

[preybeforemeals]

Somehow I doubt anyone will ask.

[what even is usually in cake anyway]

[feistytrader]

Are you allergic to food, too?

[preybeforemeals]

...Arguably, but that's part of what we don't tell people. I'll handle that part of it, don't worry; they're more likely to ask me than you.
