ARB Birthday Special 2024: Kisouna Yuzairu

~~ May 1st ~~

"Know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the outcome of a hundred battles."

Login Lines:

"...Hmm? Why are all my appointments for today suddenly displayed as 'Canceled'? Canceled for what reason?"

"'Canceled on account of my birthday'? ...Oh. Yes, today is my birthday, isn't it? I wrote that reminder months in advance and forgot about it. ...Huh."

Voice Lines:

"32 years of age. It's hard to believe just how much time has flown by. Not that I'm disappointed, of course. I'm grateful for these years I've had, even if they have just seemed to fly right by."

"My daughter, Yomi, was happy that I didn't forget my birthday this year. Granted, there is really no excuse for forgetting. After all, if my own child can remember both hers and mine, then I should endeavor to do the same."

"My sister called to wish me a happy birthday. It's good to hear from her now and then. Her life as a married woman is also going well, though she complains that it isn't much different from her normal life. Ha, she's got a lot to learn and a lot to look forward to..."

"Saito, my husband, it's me again. I'm sorry I haven't been by to visit you much. Things are going well down here, for the most part. You should see our daughter. Yomi's growing up so fast, that I can scarcely believe it. I wish you were here to see her now. ...I wish... I wish you were here, period. ...I miss you so much..."

"Aranai. Great. And this day was going so well. ...DO NOT call me that. I told you a million times before that I would never wish to be considered your 'Aunt'. *Sighs* And I suppose you'll continue to call me that no matter what, correct? ...Fine, do as you wish. I know it would be a waste of time to try to convince you, otherwise."

"So, is there a reason you are bothering me? ...A gift? *Sighs* Very well, what is it? ...A coffee mug? Oh, wait. I think I've seen these in the store. They keep your mug warm for you, correct? I see. Well, thank you very much, Aranai. I appreciate it. ...Yes, I suspected as much. But again, thank you."

"Hello, Shisuta. ...Thank you. I really appreciate it. ...Yes, I made sure to remind myself that today was my birthday since I didn't want a repeat of last year. Thanks for the reminder, by the way. ...Thank you, Shisuta. That means a lot. I value you as a friend, as well. And I know Yomi appreciates you too."

"And you brought me a gift as well? Truly Shisuta, you are a fortunate friend. ...A journal? ...Ah, a prayer journal. ...I suppose I should keep a book for my personal thoughts, shouldn't I? ...Yes, you are right. Thank you, Shisuta. I will put this to good use."

Aranai Lines:

"What up, Boss Lady? Happy birthday to you! ...Aww, thanks Auntie! Good to see you too. ...Yeah, well, too bad! Consider it a permeant nickname, along with Boss Lady. ...You can try to convince me, but I wouldn't hold my breathe if I were you. ...Glad to see you coming to your senses, 'Auntie.'"

"Anyway, with that over with, here's your birthday present. ...Yes, it's a coffee mug, but not just any mug. It's an Ember Temperature Control Smart Mug that you can control with your phone to heat up your coffee or your tea, or whatever. ...Glad you like it, Boss Lady. You'd better use it! It wasn't cheap! ...No problem, Auntie."

Shisuta Lines:

"A most joyous of birthdays to you, Kisouna-san. ...I'm glad that you remembered that today was your birthday. I've a feeling that you would have been cross with yourself had you forgotten again like last year. But truthfully, I am glad you remembered, for both yours and Yomi's sake. ...I value you as a friend, and I'd not wish my friend to partake in their day of birth. ...Thank you, Kisouna."

"Well now, allow me to present you with your birthday gift. ...Yes, it's a journal, but not an ordinary one. Look at the back. ...Yes, I feel that with a job like yours, having a journal to write down your thoughts, as well as meditate on the Word, would be very useful. ...I am glad. Please make good use of it, Kisouna-san. And again, happy birthday."
