[How Jingyi discovered this is irrelevant. That he does not usually celebrate is also irrelevant, considering their circumstances. The important thing is that today is Jingyi's birthday and he is not dead of something horrible! If that is not cause for celebration he does not know what is.]

It is my birthday!

What do you do for birthdays where you are from? Are they things that we can do here?

[ Considering this place, having survived to see another year is certainly noteworthy. ]

You could commemorate the day by training harder than usual.

[ Just kidding. Except not really. ]

Audio back atcha!

[gusumouthcannon]

I am trying to not die today! [As a treat to himself.]

You are supposed to bring me food and wish me luck.

[legbreakings]

[ What?

What?!

That bold demand earns him an indignant noise from Jiang Cheng and then a bark of ] I'm not feeding you, you brat! You're not even one of mine!

[gusumouthcannon]

Ah, but it is my birthday.

[He is going to argue this, because it is funny.]

Nobody else here is a Lan except Sizhui, and you are a sect leader! So really you are the best person to do it.

[legbreakings]

[ !!!

The bunny boy has successfully appealed to his sense of sect leader responsibility. Damn him, do all Lans exist solely to make his life difficult? ]

It makes me the best person to supervise your training and make sure you are well-cared for. [ Which... he hasn't at all, he had taken one look at the boys in their Lan uniforms and decided they aren't his problem. Okay, now he really feels guilty. ] I'm still not cooking for you!

[gusumouthcannon]

[Oh no. Everything has backfired.]

Ah, no, wait. You do not need to supervise anything. I can do all the supervising of myself, you do not need to trouble yourself. I really did just want noodles.

[legbreakings]

[ Tough luck, kid. Life is unfair. ]

I'm not going to cook longevity noodles for you! You're not one of my juniors. Maybe I'll order someone to make you noodles.

[ Bully. What he means is, he'll bully someone into it, unless Jiejie comes home in which case he can just ask nicely. ]
