Um...

I suppose I should post this here. People having been saying I should be more confident in myself so...

I guess I wanted to let you know my birthday is coming up soon. So, I'm not too sure how to celebrate it here.

Happy Birthday! I've never really celebrated one myself, but I'd say you should pick your favorite thing to do here and do that! Maybe with a few close friends?

[scooba]

You haven't?

Then when is your birthday? Perhaps I could make you something.

[obliviscere]

Oh, you wouldn't have to do anything like that! Because we're talking about your birthday right?

[scooba]

Yes but it's only fair we celebrate yours too.

[And totally not talking about him!]

[obliviscere]

Mine isn't important

[ And not because she technically doesn't even really have one. ]

[scooba]

Who said that it wasn't? I think it's just as important as mine...

[obliviscere]

I don't think I actually have one! Which is alright, it's not a big deal!

[scooba]

But how is that possible?

Shouldn't you have one?

[obliviscere]

It's kind of complicated. But it's really not a big deal!

[scooba]

I think it is. We should celebrate birthdays.

[obliviscere]

It really is okay.

[scooba]

Are you sure?

...I just don't want you to feel left out.

[obliviscere]

That's very nice of you and I appreciate it.

[scooba]

It's not a problem. I just don't want you to feel left out.

[obliviscere]

I'm used to that feeling, it's alright.

Besides, it makes me happy to help other people celebrate their days!

[scooba]

Even so...

Are you sure you don't want anything?

[obliviscere]

I'm sure. Besides wouldn't I have to choose a day for a birthday first?

[scooba]

Wait, you don't have a birthday?

[obliviscere]

No. Not really

[scooba]

I'm sorry.

Um...do you still want me to give you something? I know you don't want one but it seems wrong for me to not give you something to celebrate a year older.

[obliviscere]

You don't have to give me anything at all! Like I said, it's really okay. No big deal at all.

[scooba]

If you say so...

But how come you don't have a birthday?

[obliviscere]

I do, really!

It's because of how I came to exist.

[scooba]

...Is it because of the nobodies that you told me about?

[obliviscere]

Yes. It's what I am, so technically I wasn't born. Not in the normal way. I just came into being from someone else's heart. Really, I shouldn't exist.
