Certainly none later than my 150th. Ever since then, even the idea of a celebration has been little more than a pointless daydream. Oh, Hoshikyo, I have long since become simply too old...

[magicalesbian]

150th... [Okay, that needs a second to process.] ...c-come on, you don't look a day over 107!

[Wait, wait, not the time for jokes. She pulls her hand away from his and then reaches out, putting both hands on either of his shoulders, gripping them tightly.]

Look, I told you there was still a point, didn't I? You still have me, after all.

Happy Birthday.

[And here's the kiss.]

1/2

[neverplaysfair]

Hoshikyo...

[ Oh, and here's the kiss indeed. And what a kiss it is, so wrapped up in gratitude and emotion and perhaps... even some obligatory romance? He puts his hand on her shoulders in return as he kisses back, having no better way to express the feelings her words have brought up inside of him. After a moment, he slowly steps back and pulls away, a smile still on his lips. ]

Thank you.

[neverplaysfair]

[ And the moment the words are out of his mouth, he blinks and immediately looks up at the mistletoe that he suddenly remembers existing again. ]

... Um.

1/idk

[magicalesbian]

[Ah yes, all sorts of nice things were wrapped up in the kiss. She smiles as they pull away, the softest of girlish blushes on her face.]

You're welcome.

[magicalesbian]

[Wait.]

[What?]

[magicalesbian]

Wha-- what the hell!?

[EXAGGERATED STEP BACKWARDS HAPPENING NOW.]

[Oh god did they just...?]

[magicalesbian]

[BRB KNEELING DOWN]

[PICKING UP A BIG HANDFUL OF SNOW]

[RINSING MOUTH AND FACE AND HANDS AND OH GOD WHY]

/DONE

[magicalesbian]

[Okay, okay, she's cool again. That all happened in less than 5 seconds, and now she's standing and facing Joshua again and--]

...okay. So that happened.

[neverplaysfair]

That was... certainly something. You know, if you'd prefer, we can both agree that that didn't happen.

[ Said casually, because what do you mean he just blabbed a bunch of secrets he didn't want to actually admit to her, you see none of that here. ]

[magicalesbian]

[...it's certainly a tempting offer. But while she'd be more than happy to forget about that whole kiss ordeal, it's not quite so easy to brush off whatever the hell all that other stuff was.]

[So instead she'll just brush on his question with one of her own.]

Is it really your birthday today?

[neverplaysfair]

Hmm? Ah, no. But ages are so much easier to keep track of when you only need to remember the year, aren't they?

[magicalesbian]

...so, I guess that means being a super-geezer is the real reason why your hair's so gray, huh?

[Tact. She has it.]

[neverplaysfair]

My hair is blonde, thank you.

[ you can pick on the hair but you don't insult it :| ]

[magicalesbian]

No, my hair is blonde-- that's not the point!

[Crossing her arms.]

Look. These mistletoe? There's not exactly one for lying. Trust me, I've tested enough of them. So what the hell was all of that?

[neverplaysfair]

I've tested enough of them, too. You haven't had another where you just said the first thing that came to mind, true or not?

[ or just true ]

[magicalesbian]

What, are you trying to say I'm not your "most trusted friend" now?

[She seriously doesn't even know how to process that yet.]

[neverplaysfair]

Would you believe me even if I said you were?

[magicalesbian]

Thinking about it from the perspective of someone whose been here as long as you say you have? [While dealing with a steady stream of people constantly coming and going.] It's believable. But that doesn't mean it isn't sad.

[neverplaysfair]

Trust is a sad thing. But that's the beauty of it.

I'm not sure I'd go so far as to call you a friend.

[magicalesbian]

Wow. That really stings. And here I thought we had something special. [/deadpan.]

[neverplaysfair]

There, there, Hoshikariya. We can still kiss sometimes if you want.

[magicalesbian]

...see, it's stuff like this which is why you've got no friends.

[neverplaysfair]

[ Also the fact that he doesn't like people being close to him. ]

Because I have a nickname for you?

[magicalesbian]

No, because you act like a total prick to everybody. I mean, I'm a bit of a smartass myself, but at least I'm capable of acting like a decent human being some of the time.
