Maybe this isn't the kind of thing anyone should be thinking about...

Does it make sense to celebrate a birthday after everything that's happened?

Is it your birthday you're wanting to celebrate?

[limitstorm]

No, it's a friend of mine's. I don't celebrate my birthday.

For that reason, I think you have no cause to worry about disrespect.

[limitstorm]

Because it's a friend of mine's birthday?

[anklets]

Because it isn't yourself that you're celebrating.

[limitstorm]

Makes sense.

Thanks.

[anklets]

I hope your friend enjoys the celebration.

[limitstorm]

You know, so do I.

[anklets]

[ a hushed laugh ] Good.
