[Because the Sanguis moon is out, LB's goat face markings of the black circles around her eyes and on her lips are present along with the ears - she's relieved that the horns didn't make an appearance this time, at least! As she didn't post on the network often, she glances curiously into the screen to make certain the recording function was on, sighing before addressing the network.]

Oh, uh, hi! Eeheehee! I don't go on the network very often, so, uh, I'm "LB" for those that don't know me.

[Gosh, she probably looks like a dork right now. While she was a lot more extroverted in person, it felt weird being on video when she was much more used to texting.]

Anyway, um, my birthday is coming up soon! Or the closest equivalent to it here, I suppose? [At least the calendar system here was conveniently close to the one on Earth!] And this is probably really one of the stupidest questions ever, but... what do you even do for birthdays when you're an adult? Ahaha?

I mean, I had some when I was younger and I know a lot of adults just ignore their birthday, but... [She frowns a little before realizing it and covering it up with a bit of a forced smile.] the last time I got to celebrate a birthday was a decade ago. You know, when I was twelve years old. And maybe it's a little selfish, but I really kind of want to do something now that I actually can, you know?

[That was probably more revealing about herself than she really wanted to let on. But at least maybe people won't think she's completely stupid? In any case, she shrugs in a sort of self-conscious fashion before continuing.]

So, uh, if anyone has any ideas, let me know! But thanks for listening, really! And if anyone wants to do something, I don't mind hanging out with strangers even, if you have nothing else to do on the 13th! So I'll see you then, maybe!

[Her smile broadens at the camera, giving a little wave before shutting off the feed.]

[At the very least, LB was literally the easiest person in the universe to make laugh, so her hand moves to cover her lips as she does so.]

I'm don't know if I even liked clowns as a child, heeheehee! I'm not about to scare everyone else off!

[And while everything he listed sounded like a fine choice, there is one option that has her curious.]

But ah... what is "laser tag"? Is is dangerous?

[trenchdoting]

[He gives a pleased laugh.]

Right, right. Not everyone wants to clown around!

Never heard of Laser Tag? It's not dangerous at all! It's like this game where they split you into teams and you get special equipment. You shoot your opponents with lasers to win points, but it's not like a real laser so it doesn't actually hurt at all. It's pretty fun stuff!

[fuckinghysterical]

I don't think so, actually. I know of tag, but not the kind of variety that involves lasers, eheheh! I just wasn't certain if the laser was a harmful one or not.

[She looks maybe a little embarrassed over her confusion over it, but it wasn't like it was common knowledge in her hometown!]

But ah, it sounds like it could be fun sometime. I'm open to trying it out!

[trenchdoting]

Well now you know! I've done it a few times myself, it can be really fun! It doesn't have to be for your birthday, but you should definitely try it sometime!

[A beat.]

But also look into local lasertag first, because now that I think about it, I wouldn't be surprised if this place had some kinda weird twist to it!

[fuckinghysterical]

Oh... you're right! [She blinks a couple of times before visibly cringing a little as she tries to imagine how Prismatica might handle something like that. While she overall was very favorable of the planet, they sure did have strange ways of doing things sometimes!] But I definitely want to try it sometime, haha!

Just maybe not chance whatever the version of laser tag here might be on my birthday!

[trenchdoting]

[With how long he's been here, Gumshoe was cautious about how horny this place could make things, so he wouldn't be surprised if they had laser tag where the lasers had sensual effects or destroyed clothing or something else ridiculous. He laughs.]

I do hope you do get a chance to try some good old-fashioned normal laser tag sometime, pal! Yeah, maybe look into that for sometime in the future.

But for now, I'd be happy to attend whatever birthday shindig does end up going down!

[fuckinghysterical]

I hope so too! [Even if she didn't usually mind the effects around here too much, LB wasn't too fond of the unpredictability of just what in the hell they had in store.] But for sure, I'll look into it sometime.

[She smiles broadly at his last comment, a little relieved that there was at least one person around who wanted to do something on her birthday.]

Ah, that's great, heehee! I'll have to look into the restaurants or bars around here, but I'd be glad to have you around.

[trenchdoting]

[He's glad that she seems pleased! LB can be a little odd, but she's a good person. So he looks forward to helping her enjoy her birthday.]

Glad to hear it, pal! Good, just keep me updated. And get ready to have a happy birthday!

[fuckinghysterical]

Sure thing, um... pal! Heehee! [Hey, she knows she's weird, at least. But Gumshoe is still cool to her, regardless!] I'll let you know as soon as possible!

[trenchdoting]

Great! I'll seeya then, pal!
