[Locked from Kratos]

[xx-bloody-jack.livejournal.com]

Kratos has me curious now.

What do most people do on their birthday's?

I haven't had a need to celebrate one since I was real little. I am sure things have changed, and the circumstances are not nearly the same as the past... So... I suppose I am curious now.

Depends on the age group. We took my son out to Chucky E Cheese a few years back.

[xx-bloody-jack.livejournal.com]

May I ask what 'Chuck E Cheese' is?

[didnotkillsanta.livejournal.com]

It's a restaurant for children. There's arcade games. Tunnels they can climb around and get lost in, eat melting cheese pizza that's still stuck to the plate and have a bunch of robotic animals that are in need of repairs sing, 'Happy Birthday' to you.

Why, who's birthday is coming up?

[xx-bloody-jack.livejournal.com]

What is an 'arcade game'?

Mine apparently. Kratos insists we celebrate...

[didnotkillsanta.livejournal.com]

Arcade game. It's like pool... No, bad example. Ummmm... there're sort of like these computers only they give you different tasks to perform. Like... I don't know. Shooting dinosaurs or racing motorist. Only you're really not shooting actual dinosaurs or driving a motorcycle.

Oh? You should had told me. When is it?

If I where Kratos, I'd take you out to dinner someplace to celebrate your birthday.
Something fancy and quiet.

You're too old for party hats and paper plates. That's kids stuff.

[xx-bloody-jack.livejournal.com]

That sounds somewhat strange... I'll have to see one in real life sometime!

I really did not wish to make a fuss of it... Its Tuesday if I recall...

He wouldn't as he knows that I dislike when he goes out of his way for me...

[didnotkillsanta.livejournal.com]

Well maybe you could come by for a visit again sometime.

Oh, but it's your birthday, there's no reason not to make a fuss over it.

Least not till you reach my age. Then all you want is the day to yourself.

[xx-bloody-jack.livejournal.com]

That would be nice! I'm sure I can here soon.

I'm not used to celebrating it..

[didnotkillsanta.livejournal.com]

Don't worry about it. Whenever you get the chance. I'm rather busy anyways at the moment.

Well, having friends you should get use to it.

[somnifacent.livejournal.com]

I didn't know my birthday for a long time... A friend of mine made the day he and I met into my birthday. I usually have a party and go out and stuff~ It's a lot of fun~

[xx-bloody-jack.livejournal.com]

My boyfriend made me choose a date for my birthday so we could celebrate... but I'm not sure what to expect.

[somnifacent.livejournal.com]

If it's your boyfriend, all sorts of things might happen~

The best part is the presents!

[xx-bloody-jack.livejournal.com]

Really? Like what?

... I'm not really hoping for gifts...

[know-sacrifice.livejournal.com]

It depends on the person, I guess. Some people like to have huge parties with lots of people invited, or go out to do something special with a few people, or, like, not do anything at all 'cause they're in denial of getting older.

[xx-bloody-jack.livejournal.com]

Heh. It seems like there are many different ways it can be handled then.

[know-sacrifice.livejournal.com]

Oh, yeah, all kinds! Like, my birthday's coming up soon and I was gonna have a slumber party but now I think I want one like the one Mr. Edgeworth got!

...Only with less alcohol.

[xx-bloody-jack.livejournal.com]

Oh, I think I remember hearing about his! How was it?

[know-sacrifice.livejournal.com]

It was fun! I think. I, uh, can't really remember much, haha.

[xx-bloody-jack.livejournal.com]

Spirits can do that to a person.

[know-sacrifice.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I think I figured that out.

[xx-bloody-jack.livejournal.com]

I discovered that at a party as well.... suffice it to say that I tend to keep my distance from alcohol now.

[know-sacrifice.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that sounds like a pretty good idea, hahaha.

[xx-bloody-jack.livejournal.com]

Its been working fairly well so far.

[know-sacrifice.livejournal.com]

I haven't had a chance to try, myself. The Autobots don't really keep a lot of booze hanging around the construction site~

[xx-bloody-jack.livejournal.com]

Thankfully the temptations have been lessened around me lately, so its been easier to keep to.

[know-sacrifice.livejournal.com]

That certainly helps!

[as-nobility.livejournal.com]

A birthday? Mine typically consists of a banquet among the nobles. Luscious presents and a feast. I also try to incorporate it among the citizens of Baticul, so it bridges the gap, if only for a day.

[xx-bloody-jack.livejournal.com]

That's certainly a big way to celebrate.

[as-nobility.livejournal.com]

Is it? I suppose so. But I believe it's rather appropriate, and it's not entirely for myself, really...

[xx-bloody-jack.livejournal.com]

Oh? How do you mean?

[as-nobility.livejournal.com]

I try to make things as enjoyable as possible for everyone else. Just because the banquet is in my honor, doesn't mean it has to revolve entirely around myself, correct? Although I do hope for my birthday this year to be a bit better than last...

[xx-bloody-jack.livejournal.com]

That is rather kind of you. Perhaps it will be better this year.

[as-nobility.livejournal.com]

It should be. Luke and Guy are around for it this time, after all.

[wokeup-fromlove.livejournal.com]

Cake and ice cream usually fit into the equation.

Your birthday's coming up, then?

[xx-bloody-jack.livejournal.com]

Really? That would be interesting!

Yes.. On the 12th.

[wokeup-fromlove.livejournal.com]

It's pretty traditional here.

Happy birthday!

[xx-bloody-jack.livejournal.com]

I've never been one for tradition in the past.

Heh... thank you...

[wokeup-fromlove.livejournal.com]

Well, it's not a tradition for you, right?

How old are you going to be? If you don't mind my asking.

[xx-bloody-jack.livejournal.com]

No, it never was. Perhaps in the future?

I'm going to say 18.

[wokeup-fromlove.livejournal.com]

Perhaps.

...You don't know?

[xx-bloody-jack.livejournal.com]

We shall have to see!

I can guess, but I lost track of a time at certain points in my life.

[wokeup-fromlove.livejournal.com]

That's rough.

[xx-bloody-jack.livejournal.com]

It's life. I prefer to think I'm turning 18, though.
