Blade's letter was written by me, Rei's letter was written by chocoyuridream!
Plain text on AO3 & below the cut:
Little Chick!
Darling told me it’s your special day, so I wanted to wish you a happy, happy birthday!
I’m so happy you’re here! I love our chats in the garden, and your cute little focused face when you take me apart! Maybe next time I visit, we can do some of those essence experiments you’ve told me about? It sounds like so much fun!
Also, Little Yakumo is making a big dinner tonight so you should come over! I can make a yummy birthday dessert decorated just for you~
Tell Father I said hello!
With SO much love,
Blade

E-droid Blade,
Thanks for your letter. I was expecting the Grand Sorcerer to throw some birthday celebration. I don’t think its necessary, but if Yakumo is putting in the effort too, maybe its worth something.
I was surprised by your letter when Father brought it to me, but I’ve liked spending time with you too. It’s not as easy to sneak around the mansion with an e-droid following me. But I don’t mind. I look forward to my breaks in the garden with you, after exhausting the resources in the library.
Your involvement in my experiments and the data collected has been extremely valuable in my studies of essence. I always appreciate your patience, being as some of the experiments have ended up being more involved than initially anticipated, and your anatomy has continually been a useful tool. Your company during long and sleepless nights concluding research has been welcome too. I am thankful Eiden somehow managed to bring us all together again.
You’re fascinating. You always have been.
So, thanks again for this. If anyone was going to wish me a happy birthday, out of all the clan members and the familiars, I’m glad it was you.
