mooglenet_backup[Today's just like any other day, as of late. Serah wakes up, mostly wanting to stay snuggled up next to her fiancée, but eventually crawls out of bed, looking at his sleeping form with a smile. There will be the shower, getting dressed, pondering breakfast, tidying the kitchen, going out to buy groceries, checking her sky phone on occasion. Maybe fitting in some reading somewhere, or heading just outside to practice or train, not really wanting to break anything in the house.
But today is a little bit different. There's a makeshift calendar on her wall, and today is marked with a star.
It's her birthday. Today, she's nineteen. She smiles when she thinks that. So much has happened, both on Gaia, and at home, on Cocoon, on Pulse... and she's lived through it all, to meet her next birthday. It also makes her think of something... which may be why, after she's eaten, she pulls out the phone, and sets up a video.]
... it goes really quick, doesn't it? After we arrive on Gaia, I mean. When you sit and think about it, it's days, then months... six months. So many days, then falling into a routine.
I'm... happy being here, I suppose. Glad in some ways, sad in others... but... mostly happy.
[And then she smiles.] Protecting this world, and everyone in it... that's most important now.
[Then the feed ends. Of course, she's up for being waylaid in person at any point in person, before or after the video.]

Date: 2011-07-12 06:03 pm (UTC)That was fine. There were plenty of other things for them to do outside of the house.]
Hey, good morning, birthday girl.

Date: 2011-07-30 08:06 pm (UTC)When Snow comes along, though, she instantly gravitates in his direction, beaming.] You remembered. [And a smile, before she goes in for a hug. It's mostly teasing, mind... she knows he would never forget.] How's my favourite hero?

Date: 2011-07-31 09:08 pm (UTC)[Then she shakes her head, grinning.] Not yet. Want to make a claim?

Date: 2011-08-08 05:58 pm (UTC)[ Clearly this isn't the only thing on her mind, but it's what happens first. ]
[Action]
Date: 2011-08-09 06:39 am (UTC)I want as much of the day as I can get without incurring the wrath of Lightning. We've got important birthday errands to do.

Date: 2011-08-13 03:56 am (UTC)[ Stall, pause, stall, pause. Okay, she reaches into her pouch at her hip and pulls out a small wrapped box, handing it to Serah. ]
I wanted to do something special for you, but this seemed to be the only thing.
[ Inside the box is a small bracelet made of beads in Serah's favorite colors and fashioned after Pulse style jewelry. ]

Date: 2011-08-15 01:37 pm (UTC)[She trails off as she unwraps it and lifts the lid, then she smiles wider in surprise.] ... it's beautiful! It's just like yours...

Date: 2011-08-19 01:50 pm (UTC)The general gameplan was to go find everything fun there is to do in Luca, and do it as hard as we can. Planned to start with an obscene amount of pancakes, but it looks like you already ate!
[action]
Date: 2011-08-30 11:11 pm (UTC)Let's see... [She quickly takes it out the box and puts it on, marvelling it for a moment.]
[Action]
Date: 2011-08-30 11:15 pm (UTC)She instantly lights up with another smile at the thought of all of that.] Huhm. Well, y'know.... there's always room for pancakes.
[action]
Date: 2011-09-01 12:27 am (UTC)It looks great on you, Serah! The colors go perfectly with your hair!

Date: 2011-09-03 05:19 pm (UTC)[action]
Date: 2011-09-03 09:35 pm (UTC)She returns the hug, this time without the hindrance of the box.] Thank you. Really.
[action]
Date: 2011-09-04 02:18 pm (UTC)She pulls back with a grin. ]
You're family now. Better get used to it!
[Action]
Date: 2011-09-09 02:00 pm (UTC)Alright, pancakes it is! Your wish is my command. Even if they're, you know. Just hinted at. [He winks.]

Date: 2011-09-12 03:40 am (UTC)Oh yeah. They'll happen. In abundance, even.
[Action]
Date: 2011-09-18 06:26 pm (UTC)I'm thinking syrup. And sugar. Lots of it!
[Action]
Date: 2011-09-21 03:06 am (UTC)Light will disapprove of course, she disapproves of everything fun, but I think I'll join you on that sugar high.
[Action]
Date: 2011-09-23 12:18 am (UTC)I'm glad. It's always better to have a willing comrade. [She's grinning. She may have persuaded you to join in if you hadn't been willing to, Snow.] Not everything... [She looks down, trying to think of examples. Not really coming up with anything, though, so she presses on.] Well, okay... she might. Better prepare for that scolding, huh?
