The year's over. So I must be fourteen.

Hm.

(Yeaaaaaah, Kaoru doesn't know her own birthday either. She just counts her age when the year passes.)

Is living another year something to be congratulated over?

[causink-trouble.livejournal.com]

Sure iz. Lots ov pipples doezn't make it, after all.

[By the way, Jenka counts her birthdays the same way, to the extent that she counts them at all, so she's not surprised at the post. XD]

[windsofdaytime.livejournal.com]

That's true. Lots of people die.

You've lived a long time, right?

[windsofdaytime.livejournal.com]

...Yes. I didn't really care before, but I like being alive. This world is nice. The wind moving through the clouds. Lunch boxes. Sleeping in a bed. It has things like that.

Oh, is it your birthday?

[voice]

[windsofdaytime.livejournal.com]

I don't know when I was born, but it's a new year, isn't it?

[voice]

[anonymousryuuki.livejournal.com]

Well, yes.

...you really don't know when your birthday is?

[voice]

[windsofdaytime.livejournal.com]

Nobody told me. I didn't think it was important.

Re: [voice]

[anonymousryuuki.livejournal.com]

Nobody...?

And of course it's important.

[voice]

[windsofdaytime.livejournal.com]

No.

Is this because of the cake and presents? Jenka told me about those.

[voice]

[anonymousryuuki.livejournal.com]

Well, there's those too! But it's also important because it's the day you were born.

[voice]

[windsofdaytime.livejournal.com]

Why is that important?

[flailingbento.livejournal.com]

Happy birthday!

[windsofdaytime.livejournal.com]

Birthday?
