You're very welcome.

[ It's not as if she has extravagant stories of her own birthday to share either. Once her father had brought Okumura Foods back on the map and helped to make it exceedingly profitable, birthdays were a thing of the past.

Even her last birthday, missed because of how important their mission was back home.

Maybe this year will be different. ]

With everyone coming from such different places and cultures, I had wondered if you had anything specific with how you celebrated birthdays.

But it's nice to know it's still the same as most places!

Indeed! It is a very interesting subject. I do wonder what different kinds of birthday rituals exist out there! And if there are any in my own world that have been lost to time.

[He hands her slice over to her.]

Given this whole gesture, I must ask. On what day were you born?

[ She takes it and moves to take a seat, so she properly eat. ]

I've seen in some cultures they have huge celebrations for when the girls reach a certain age. I think one of them is called a quinceañera? They look kind of fun, I won't lie.

[ A beat. ]

Mine is the fifth of December. So it's not for a while!

[Owain takes his own seat while preparing to dig into his own slice. He listens to her mention of such celebrations with a note of intrigue.]

That name sounds almost melodic! I'm sure such parties must be quite fun. Now I feel my own curiosity expanding when it comes to different sorts of celebrations.

[He raises his fork, with a piece of cake attached to it.]

Of course I shall commit your own birthday to memory - and I shall be sure to prepare for when that day comes! Make sure to approach that day exactly how you wish I had approached mine!

[He offers a smile, just before biting into the piece.]

[ She takes a dainty bite of hers, covering her mouth as she chews, then swallows before she says anything further: ]

You know... I'm not sure what I'd like to do for my birthday this time.

[ She would really like to celebrate it with all her friends, but that isn't possible in this world.

Not unless every single one of them showed up suddenly, even Sophia. ]

[Owain smiles as he chews on his first piece. His mouth remains closed until he's swallowed it, but he does make a 'Mmm' sound!]

It tastes wonderful, Haru! Such a sublime sweetness... You've certainly done well!

[He goes to pick at his next piece! While considering what she said.]

Of course, at least you have plenty of time to consider the options when it comes to your own celebration!

Thanks!

[ She's never had that chance and she won't get to have it with the PTs this time, but it doesn't mean she can't enjoy a celebration with all the new friends in this world. ]

Celebrating it with my friends is enough for me. But you're right; I have time to think on it! So I'll look forward to that day.
