19th Combo - [Video]

[redcladidealist]

[There's a huge grin on Lloyd's face, the kind of grin you only give when you're pleased and excited and everything is right in the world, or when something amazing is happening.]

Hey, everyone! Guess who's officially an adult today!

[That's right, it's his birthday - or the one that he and Dirk celebrate. The only one he's ever known, so the only one that counts as far as he's concerned.]

Oh, yeah, by the way, Kanaya, I finished that necklace for you! When do you wanna meet up?

[He... hasn't realized yet that Kanaya is gone. Late with your gifts again, Lloyd. Always late. :/ ]

But man, I've been looking forward to this birthday so much! Now that I'm eighteen, I don't have to go back to school!

You're welcome.

So, any plans for the big day?

[redcladidealist]

I'm hoping to meet up with... with my friend. [There's a bit of a blush there, Sheena.] I didn't feel like throwing a party for myself, so I'm thinking I'll eat out and get a piece of cake from the restaurant. I'm going to buy some things that I've been saving up for, too.

...Oh? Is that a blush I'm seeing, Lloyd?

[SHE DOESN'T MISS THAT!]

Treat yourself, huh? Haven't gotten anything from someone special yet?

[redcladidealist]

W-what? No it's not!

[It so is.]

W-well, I'm not expecting anything from her. Not really. She didn't know today was my birthday.

[beats-zelos.livejournal.com]

I don't know, I think I'm seeing one.

[She raises an eyebrow.]

And who's "her"?

[redcladidealist]

[Fidget. So bright red.]

Her name's Kanaya. And I'm not blushing, Sheena!

[beats-zelos.livejournal.com]

I think you're in denial. So, what's this girl of yours like?

[redcladidealist]

[Ffff. He scrubs his cheek with his hand. He's not blushing. He's not. He's just a little warm.

He is smiling, though. It's hard not to with this topic.]

She's nice. We've been working on decorating a hat with feathers, and I made her a necklace I'm going to give her. It's not as good as it could be, since I don't have my Dad's forge and tools to work with, but I think she'll like it.

[beats-zelos.livejournal.com]

Oh, that sounds nice. I want to meet this girl one of these days, if she's got you carrying on like that.

[redcladidealist]

Maybe I'll invite her over sometime so she can meet all my friends. I'm pretty sure she'd like to meet you guys, too.

[beats-zelos.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that sounds like a good plan to me. I can't wait to meet her.

[redcladidealist]

I'll call you when we work something out!

[It's really too bad this isn't ever going to happen - because Kanaya's already gone.]

See you later, then!
