Two months ago, my cousin Naoya decided to announce to the world at large that it was my birthday. Today I get to return the favour.

Please send him your best birthday regards. He's older than dirt and will need them before inevitably expires due to being a literal fossil.

I know you saw this coming, Naoya.

[Kazuya is wheezing with laughter on the other end of this message.]

I may or may not be joking. But he's fine. For the most part.

[beshackled]

Of that I am glad. You had me worried that he had been turned to stone!

'Tis not impossible, after all.

[belheir]

Nah, he hasn't turned to stone yet. Maybe in the future, though.

[beshackled]

...Pray make certain he has a remedy for it in advance should he be planning on warring with creations capable of such.

[belheir]

He's got nothing to fear from any such "creations". Especially since I don't think there's any basilisks here anyway. Or even if they could turn our dream-selves into stone.

[beshackled]

...As enlightening as the results of such an experiment may be, mayhap it is one best left undone.

[belheir]

Yeah, no kidding. Being turned to stone isn't exactly fun. Even when it eventually wears off. Lets not dream up any basilisks here and avoid that entire problem.

[beshackled]

Aye. On that we can agree.

[belheir]

Well. Hopefully no basilisks will ruin his birthday. If you felt like getting him something, he's a sucker for sweets.

[beshackled]

Has he a favored type?

[belheir]

Japanese type sweets, but honestly I think anything would be appreciated by him.

[beshackled]

Unfortunately I know not what Japanese type sweets are.

[He doesn't even know what Japanese type means, really.]

Are they available here?

[belheir]

It's a bit hard to explain... I'm not sure if they're here, I've had to hand make the ones I know he likes, but I think any sweet would be appreciated by him.

[beshackled]

That is good to know. I shall have to see about acquiring some.
