[ Action - Earlier ]

[ It's Christmas Eve. ... It's Christmas Eve, he's living with two girls, has an ambiguous relationship with another girl entirely. It's been a long and weird year and his birthday is coming up. Honestly, he didn't want to have his birthday come again here and again end up older than Yukio... but Shiemi said they would do a party.

With that and his plan for Christmas Gifts in mind, Rin needs to go shopping before anything today, picking up large quantities of ingredients at the Grocery and the Bakery and even a little bit at the Convenience Store. In the midst of this, he's also on the look out for any of his friends so that he can invite them to his birthday party and maybe do a little bit of inquiry about what they might want to eat. ]

[ Later, when he is cooking and baking... ]

Hey! So, any of my friends out there.... my birthday's on the 27th, and Shiemi decided that she wanted to throw me a birthday party. So if any of ya' wanna have some fun after Christmas or have a nicer dinner or something, why don't you show up for it?
