[While Owain had celebrated his birthday before, they were usually small and low-key affairs, given that he and his peers were constantly caught up in battle or living on the run in a ruined world. Not to mention that it lost some of its magic after his parents were gone. But now, he finds himself having lived through his first birthday having traveled back in time. He thought that Inigo's acknowledgement of it had been enough!

But now, he sees a piece of the experience he's been missing in the form of this cake that's been presented to him, by someone he's known for a few months. He does feel truly touched as he opens the container, and he looks it over with a soft smile.]

I- I acknowledge and heartily accept your well wishes, with overwhelming gratitude! [His eyes light up as he looks over the shortcake.] This confection has truly been crafted to perfection. It's like a work of art! I almost feel bad that it's fated to be consumed entirely. Almost, but not quite!
