Share a birthday? What a ludicrous idea. Then again, this girl has survived numerous plots and twists thrown at her. At this point, Mercury wouldn’t be surprised if she were immortal. He didn’t react much to her words or her touch, though he did enjoy the sentiment. Such an odd feeling it was for a boy who grew accustomed to the coldest faces of Remnant.
His gaze finally met hers with a raised brow. “I’m not stupid, I know that’s not how birthdays work,” despite never celebrating a day of his own. His tone was a bit sharp, pardon him for failing to adjust to this new ‘friendship’ so gradually. Not everyone was as quick to forgive as the hooded huntress was, and they weren’t afraid to let it be known. Regardless she tried, it wouldn’t hurt to give a little effort back, he supposed. “But I guess I’ll try some of that cake.”
