"Oli!" As he's enjoying his birthday with his islanders in Animal Crossing, Nicole had gone to great lengths to keep it subtle the little cake she was baking him. It was only after it was done, that she called him into the kitchen to look! She made a nice little apple cake complete with a very light home made caramel drizzle. She's practically bouncing on her feet, just excited to share her work with him when he comes to see what she called him for. "Happy birthf'day!"
--- The eyes and ears that seldom missed anything, had certainly missed what his little sister had been up to. Sure in the mindset that whatever it was, she would have been content enough. After all, he hadn’t picked up on anything that would have indicated to the otherwise. As it were, he had simply been content to watch the colourful little creatures dance around the small screen, a particularly wide smile tugging at his lips when it was that his favourite -- a little bunny called Chrissy -- greeted him with a new, and dare he say, brightly coloured t-shirt.
Ears would perk up, however, at the calling of his name. His curiosity piqued. Of course, it was more than widely known that today was the cleric’s 126th birthday but he never really did anything for them either. Claiming that he would rather people spend their time and money on something a little more than a singular person on a singular day -- not that many listened, of course, if the well wishers that had turned up throughout the day had been anything to go by.
Still, after picking himself up from his seated position on the floor, the elf would quietly make his way towards where Nicole had hidden herself away only a few hours prior. Eyes widening when it was that they fell upon the little cake on the table. Looking up, he could practically feel the excitement that was oh so clearly visible, her words proceeding to further still betray such an emotion.
“You did not have to be doing this,” yet despite Olithier’s response, there was a smile present upon his lips, one that was gentle. One that was so so full of warmth. “Ah, not that I am being, how you say, ungrateful, no no, not at all,” he pulled the younger woman into a one armed hug, “Thank you, Nicole, I cannot wait to be, ah, trying it,”
