Hello. There are a few new books available at Petals & Pages to read. I hope to continue expanding its stock.

I am also curious about peoples' opinions on something. There have been more than a few posts regarding birthdays-- do you find them important? Is it important you know someone else's? I feel as though there are many takes on this.

Thank you.

the director is calling me but I really just wanted to ask you as soon as possible! becaues there's no reason to ask all those questions about birthdays if yours isn't coming up right?I wanna celebrante your bithday! it's important!!

The director? Are you rehearsing? I am sorry. I was mostly curious. There are usually more pressing matters on that day, but I do not think these robots will be shooting love arrows at anyone here.

[Vianca had not encountered an analog for cupid just yet in her readings. Unless Ainea was going to send Micey Messengers of Love around the place instead??]

[ It's a couple hours before Kyoko responds again. ]

Not a rehearsal, we're filming! It was my turn~ I should have a little more time now. ^_^ What kind of pressing matters involve shooting people on your birthday, Vianca-chan?

That sounds very busy. Are you done for the day?

There would often be little robots buzzing around the school called Cupid-Bots. They'd act like their namesake and everything would always be a little crazy, so people were usually very pre-occupied.

They're working on some scenes I'm not in right now, so this is a break! Cupid-Bots... your SCHOOL inflicted this on you? No, more importantly, are you saying your birthday is the 14th??

Oh! Has it been a very long day? Please stay hydrated.

It was more... a goof, I think some people say, to mess with the holiday. I am not sure we ever found out 100% who was doing it but there were very strong suspicions. But yes.

Don't worry about me! Even the robots have grasped the necessity of water! I guess that makes sense, if that kind of technology is the norm where you're from. My world isn't quite there yet, but it's 100% the kind of thing the president of my talent agency would go for.... But! MORE! IMPORTANTLY!! Vianca-chan, there is definitely going to be nothing more important than your birthday on February 14!!!! DEFINITELY! NOTHING!!

[This text feels o m i n o u s .]

That's good.

The technology for it is definitely here, so I will mostly be glad if something similar does not happen.

When is your birthday, Kyoko?

[ Kyoko is READY to fight for this small girl's birthday! ]

December 25 Vianca-chan, do you like sweets?

Vianca-chan?? Did you hit send too soon?

I believe I found the answers to my own questions.

We should do something nice for your day too.

???? That's a different topic though? Hasn't my birthday already passed? I thought that was how the months worked here?

I am not good at birthdays, or holidays. That is why I asked what I did.

So it does not feel right to talk about one but not the other just because of the timing.

Vianca-chan. Vain Day definitely, definitely doesn't matter. As holidays go, it's a disgrace. The themes of the day can only be said to be waste and shamefulness. There is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING more important than your birthday on February 14! Don't doubt it!

[Was there an aura coming from her screen. Hm.]

It does seem like a silly kind of day.

But I meant your birthday. It doesn't feel right to talk about mine and not yours.

[ Had Kyoko been so consumed with ire that she had forgotten that her very own holiday-birthday might be of interest? Yes. She still doesn't see why they need to talk about it though! ]

I kinda think I don't get the problem, but don't you think you're worrying about it too much? Your birthday is the relevant one right now!
