Hey, hey! Today is my "birthday"... I think? Or at least I'm pretty sure I remember that Tim guy saying it should be today.

[there's a long pause, and then...]

What is it that you're supposed to do on birthdays, again?

[vagabone]

[Because birthdays are all about being a year older!!]

Could you take a guess?

[tomodachi]

Do I have to?

[It's kind of an embarrassing number that he can guess here, honestly.]

[vagabone]

You don't have to tell me if you don't want to. Save it for your amigos, yeah?

But birthdays are all about celebrating that you're a year older. It's more fun to keep count.

[tomodachi]

I guess... I should ask Seto and Ren sometime how old they are, I don't think they've ever told me.

[vagabone]

Ask when their birthdays are while you're at it.

[tomodachi]

They've both had their birthdays already I think, but I'm gonna ask again sometime so that I'll be certain about it next time.

[vagabone]

Ah, too bad. But you can always make up for it, it's never too late!

[This island's no place for children, let them have all the fun they can!]

So what day is it, anyway?

[tomodachi]

The... 7th! Yes, that's it. August 7th.

[vagabone]

Ah, thanks, kid! Been wondering if anyone knew. It wasn't summer back home.

[tomodachi]

It wasn't? [Huh] Are you new here?

[vagabone]

Sort of? It's been about a month and a half.

[tomodachi]

Okay, yeah, you're pretty new. At least in comparison to some of the other people I know here.

[vagabone]

It's been almost a year for a lot of you, right?

[And that's terrifying when you may not have a year to 'live'.]

[tomodachi]

I think so, yeah?
