[ It's really hard to believe that the day has begun and there's no dramatic event making itself known on the horizon. Boa has barely slept the night, shaken between what the date means to him versus what it means to Mitsuru. A year... a year since that godawful day of being stoned to death. Boa had gotten up before dawn in the end, giving up on rest and instead channeling his restless energy into productivity.

Productivity means making a birthday cake.

Birthday cake means... it's a cake mix, but there are 13 candles and anyway, he's never really baked before, so IT COUNTS.

Mitsuru will find those lit in the kitchen as soon as he exits his room, because Boa let himself in. ]

Happy Birthday.

[ Boa smiles, softly. The groggy surprise is sweet to witness, even though the actual event is more nervewrecking than it has any right to be. Vividly, he remembers the last time he said these words to Mitsuru. The way he'd felt, terrified then and melancholy. Apologetic, too. He has no reason to feel any of these things now, but the memory is something visceral. ]

I'm... gonna give you your actual present in the evening, if that's okay. But cake seemed... safe.

[ Handing over a present before the day is safely over with feels like an omen for disaster. He gave a present last year and he died after. This time there is nothing to be scared of, they're just home but... best avoid the association. ]

[ The hug is permitted and Boa instantly buries his face in Mitsuru's shoulder, soaking in the warm. This too feels dangerously like it is inviting a flashback. One year ago on this exact day he's been clinging to Mitsuru as one of the last things he might have ever done in his life had they been more unlucky that summer.

Now, Mitsuru's hug just feels safe. That's the difference this year has made. Now it is hard to imagine that someone could be able to pull them apart without getting hurt in the process.

For a moment, Boa is quiet as these feelings simply wash over him. Having a person he can always rely on continues to be a little miracle. ]


.... I never made cake before so I guarantee for nothing. I put a lot of effort in though.

I tried not to change anything, but... It's still a first attempt. Even my first attempt at Beyblading wasn't that great, so... Well, you'll just have to find out.

[ The extended hug was nice, but Boa reluctantly lets go. If they waste too much time here then maybe the wax from the candles will drip down too far. Luckily, that's the only part of the day that's on a timer. The door to the apartment is closed (he checked first thing, a weird fit of paranoia so nobody could come drag them without making noise first) and on the other side of the hole in the wall there's just Lance. All is familiar. ]

Though you need to make a wish first.

[ Because that's what birthday candles do, right...? They both had a birthday here already but somehow they never had the time to figure out normal birthday traditions. ]

[ Yeah, it's... it's awkward. But at the same time, that's weirdly why Boa likes the idea of the tradition here. Like breaking some kind of curse associated with wishes, along with breaking the birthday curse. Not that curses are all, which makes this all the more important. Getting rid of irrational fears. ]

I think birthday wishes are pretty... whimsical, usually. It's not like it's real magic.

That seems reasonable. And I mean... we can help make it happen.

[ In case the birthday gods need a little help here. ]

Though that's what we do anyway. [ He smiles a bit himself. ]

[ Wooohoooo!! For a moment Boa just watches the smoke dissipate, but soon the moment is over. So you know what time it now is? KNIFE TIME.

It's probably always somewhat knife time with these two, so maybe this is the most preferable incarnation of it.

Boa carefully cuts out a large piece of the cake for Mitsuru and places it on his plate, still feeling kind of nervous. ]

[ It is in fact, a perfectly fine cake! Maybe a little bit less sweet than one would expect because Boa could not fathom the amounts of sugar, but still pretty tasty! ]
