[ No, literally. It's a box. It looks kind of messy, though....

A box in which birds can drop messages off to the magician in question.

Do it. ]

I don't think I ever want to be old enough to do those things. But we did make money, at least!

W-well, it's true. I don't really see the appeal of alcohol anyways... I mean, I might go ahead and party on my twenty first birthday once just to say I did it, but that's besides the point! Doesn't alcohol make you really sick, anyways?

[abwehr]

You're gonna be old one day, it comes to us all.

It depends how much you drink. Some people can drink a lot without issue, but it's just a matter of finding a tolerance. Not everyone gets sick but hangovers are pretty horrible no matter who you are.

[magicpanchira]

I know, that's... kind of a scary thought. Time goes by pretty quickly, doesn't it? I wish I had some kind of magic to make it slow down!

That does sound horrible. Even still... when I turn twenty one, you're going to come with me to wherever, right? Someone needs to be able to tell me what all the good drinks are, and I definitely want you and Athena to come have fun with me! That's a whole four years away from now, though... I'm not sure what I even want to do for my seventeenth birthday, let alone my twenty first!

[abwehr]

When you turn 21, I'll be [ mental maths ] 28, so that may have to be a pass. Athena'll teach you the ropes, I'm sure. ... Although she can't even drink yet either when I think about it. [ WHY IS EVERYONE SO YOUNG. ] Did you want to do something here? What do you want for your birthday too?

[magicpanchira]

Oh, come on! I'll bet you'll have a lot of fun with us. Besides, I doubt we'll do anything too wild! [ ...Except it's Athena and Trucy so you know things will escalate at some point and they'll be sending him drunken selfies and texts half the night. ]

Nope, she's got... another... three years or so! Oh, we don't have to do anything, and I don't want anything, either! It's just another day, you know? My present is having you here, that's all I need.

[abwehr]

We both know that's a lie. I can barely leave you and Athena alone in the office in the middle of the day without returning to total chaos.

... [ GIVE HIM A MINUTE THAT'S ALL A BIT EMOTIONAL. ] D-Don't be a sap, give me some ideas!

[magicpanchira]

Well, we'll try not to get too drunk. If we're lucky, maybe Prosecutor Gavin will come with us and keep us in line! [ HE'S A RESPONSIBLE ADULT RIGHT?? ]

I'm not being a sap, it's true! I'm happy with what I've got now, Polly! I mean, unless you want to get me a puppy or something. I'd gladly take a puppy....

[abwehr]

... You are ONE HUNDRED PERCENT not allowed to go out drinking with Gavin.

We don't have space for a puppy and you would probably just end up dumping it on me.

[magicpanchira]

What? Why not? He's really nice!

I know, I know, I was kidding. I don't need anything, silly.

[abwehr]

He's a rockstar. There's a certain stereotype that goes along with that when it comes to things like drinking.

[magicpanchira]

Maybe when it comes to Athena, but not me. Remember, he's dating her... so I don't think I have to worry. Besides, he's a total gentleman!

[abwehr]

It's not the womanising I'm worried about, I know he's not that sort of guy. It's the famed rockstar hedonism.

[magicpanchira]

Oh, Polly. Don't even worry about that! We'll be fine! See, this is just another reason you should come with us! Besides, Prosecutor Gavin is older than you, so see?

[abwehr]

What makes you think that I want to go out with Klavier Gavin?

[magicpanchira]

Because it would be my birthday! Besides, you can't be that worried....

[abwehr]

Why can't I be that worried?

It won't let me change my icon LMAO

[magicpanchira]

Because you don't want to tag along. Therefore, you know that I'd be in good hands!

[abwehr]

... I.

... [ shit. ]

Mr. Wright wouldn't allow it. [ WHAT A LAME EXCUSE. ]

[magicpanchira]

Daddy wouldn't mind! Besides, I'll be a legal adult! So it's not like he can stop me!

[abwehr]

You are underestimating your father. The man ran across a burning bridge, Trucy.

... He'd come with you. Or follow you at the very least.

[magicpanchira]

True! Well, he's probably going to get just as wasted as the rest of us... another reason you should come with us! But if we're still stuck here, daddy may not be here after all!

[abwehr]

Another reason not to attend, I don't think I could handle dealing with Mr. Wright drunk.

We won't be here forever! ... I hope.

[magicpanchira]

Oh, come on! Okay, fine. You and I will go out by ourselves, then!

We'll see...~

[abwehr]

That's... not quite what I mea... [ Give up, Justice. ] Fine.

[magicpanchira]

Haha, I knew you'd agree! [ YOU AIN'T GETTING OUT OF DRUNKEN BAR TIMES WHEN SHE'S OLD ENOUGH SIR. ]
