[008: Action]

[techno-logical.livejournal.com]

[Today is April's birthday, and while April has never even really celebrated her birthday before, she thought that after that whole 'fighting with your doubles and face your issues' thing, it would be nice to have a bit of fun. So, she decides to buy one new dress for herself (since it's thick enough to protect against the cold), and also decides to buy this thing called a 'kite'. It had caught her eye when she was walking past the store and after asking the store owner about it, it sounded like it could be fun.

So, she's found a large-ish open area in the park and is now trying to fly the kite. 'Try' being the keyword here since she manages to keep it in the air for a while before it crashes into a nearby tree... o-or into anybody nearby. So if you're in the park today and see a kite crash land into a tree or get whacked in the back of the head by a kite, the sheepish looking redhead is the reason behind it.]

Yep; that and the coat I'm wearing. I don't usually buy stuff for myself, but I decided to spoil myself for once. [And that is what is done for birthdays in this world.]

[gaveupfeeling.livejournal.com]

Is there an occasion? A promotion perhaps?

[techno-logical.livejournal.com]

Ah, it's my birthday. I remember reading that birthdays are celebrated here, so I decided to buy myself some things I wanted.

[gaveupfeeling.livejournal.com]

Ah. I haven't purchased you anything.

[techno-logical.livejournal.com]

Hm? It's alright, you didn't know, so I wasn't expecting you to get me anything.

[gaveupfeeling.livejournal.com]

Should I not acquire something for you now that I know?

[techno-logical.livejournal.com]

[A blink, before she shakes her head.] Ah, you don't have to if you don't want to.

[gaveupfeeling.livejournal.com]

...I may be a bit late. I'll need to consider.

[techno-logical.livejournal.com]

[Another blink as she looks at him in surprise.] B-but... [And then her surprise disappears as she smiles softly.]... T-that's alright. Thank you, Ledah.

[gaveupfeeling.livejournal.com]

You're welcome.

[techno-logical.livejournal.com]

... So, if you don't mind me asking, when is your birthday?

[gaveupfeeling.livejournal.com]

June 28th. Not for a fair amount of time.

[techno-logical.livejournal.com]

But still, I'll make sure to remember it.

[gaveupfeeling.livejournal.com]

Thank you, April.

[techno-logical.livejournal.com]

It's nothing. And it'll give me time to think of what to get for you.

[gaveupfeeling.livejournal.com]

The decision is a difficult one, I admit.

[techno-logical.livejournal.com]

I'm positive I can think of something to get for you... And I can always try making you something.

[gaveupfeeling.livejournal.com]

That would be more effort than I require.

[techno-logical.livejournal.com]

I don't mind, and I like making things. [And hey, she did end up making his Xmas presents.]

[gaveupfeeling.livejournal.com]

Then I won't protest too much.

[techno-logical.livejournal.com]

Okay... And besides, I think you're worth the effort. [She gives him a smile before she looks back at the kite.]

[gaveupfeeling.livejournal.com]

Hm. I won't argue with you over that.

...It is a lovely kite.

[techno-logical.livejournal.com]

[She grins and gives a nod in agreement.] Yeah, it really is pretty. There were a lot of different ones at the store, but I liked this one the most. Not a bad choice for my first kite!

[gaveupfeeling.livejournal.com]

Pretty yet functional. You chose well.

[techno-logical.livejournal.com]

Ah, thank you! [She smiles happily at him, before looking back up at the kite.] So, what do you think about kite flying?
