Fufu, no need to apologize. HiMERU is simply glad you seemed to have had a happily eventful day. It was entertaining to see a day in the life of Amagi Hiiro so closely illustrated. Happy birthday, Hiiro. What are you up to now?
[On one hand, he did want to find Rinne on his own because he wanted to prove his skills in tracking has improved since the last time he had to hunt him down. On the other, he was offering cake so...]
I can look for Nii-san on my own, but I'll wait for you by the church entrance! The cake is very nice, so I wanted to share it with everyone.
Ahaha. You're entitled to be as greedy as you'd like on your birthday of all days, but you still want to share with everyone you know? You're far too sweet.
[Too sweet, too sweet. Just like someone else he knows. Just like someone he's on his way to see anyway.]
It would do me no good to eat that much calories on my own, and it is better to enjoy it in the company of friends.
I will see you then, HiMERU-san.
[He will definitely be waiting by the church entrance, though his cake isn't the big box that he had earlier, but smaller transparent boxes with cakes and forks in them. He worked very hard to trade for those, so he might be a bit sweatier than necessary for a guy supposedly enjoying his day of birth.]
[They meet on the other side, just outside the island church. HiMERU is decently surprised by the arrangement Hiiro's scrounged together, blinking at him curiously.]
Goodness. How did you go about getting all of these?
Ah, but these aren't the ones I wanted to give you. It's this one.
[He will pull out a separate cake. It's not as neatly packed as the rest, and the slicing is obviously not as professional, but it was a bigger piece with its own fork.]
I wanted to share the cake Nii-san got me with our friends, so this is from that.
[It kind of explains something, but it's still weird. But they're also idols. That's literally their bread and butter. So maybe it isn't that weird, not really.
HiMERU tilts his head at the appearance of a second cake, though.]
This one is from Amagi...? And then you wanted another from the island?
[It's not a hard puzzle to put together at all. HiMERU chuckles.]
HiMERU deduces that either the flavor Amagi chose is not to your taste, or you're planning to distribute even more of your birthday cake with your island friends. Like Shiratori, yes?
Umu! You are correct that I wanted to share it with my friends. The flavor Nii-san picked for me was really good, so I just got more of it so I can share. It was a good workout.
So you've been getting along fine with him. Yes, that's good...
[Not that it comes as a surprise. Hiiro is a nice boy who's charmed half the town if not more, after all. And here he is even now, doing sweet things like delivering cake on his birthday...
His heart swells with a little brotherly pride, which is a marvel sensation in its newness. His smile, too, softens with another touch of sincerity.]
He'll certainly be happy you thought of him. Be careful not to tire yourself out running around everywhere, though. It's your birthday, so you ought to be in your best condition.
Umu! Thank you for your concern. Compared to a live, bringing cake to everyone is more similar to a warm-up. Though, it has been a while since we performed on a stage.
[He's missed it, especially after performing for Yodaka. It feels like he hasn't had enough.]
It would be nice if we can hold one here, if only to lift everyone's spirits. Yodaka-san seemed to enjoy performing too. Have you seen it?
[... Shit!! Hiiro's gotten to see him perform? These damn Amagi brothers getting things with his brother he can't—]
Ah... Unfortunately not. He seemed rather particular about having the perfect stage to show his first real performance, and... Well, it was a shared sentiment.
[Being a Tojo means fixating on perfection, and the people most important to you will never witness anything less.]
But agreed, it would be something good to do again. For all the chaos and insanity we've been made to endure since coming here, perhaps something of normalcy is exactly what we all need.
[and he wants to show off for his baby brother so bad]
Ah, is that so? I understand, though it is a shame. I do not know how well we can build a stage here for him to perform, so would that not take a long time before you can see that?
[What else would be the reason? That sounds difficult. Also, Yodaka had seemed easily tired, so he would need to build his stamina too. There was a lot to consider.]
Do you want to perform for him as well, HiMERU-san?
The perfect performance will always be well worth the wait.
[He won't push Kaname to do something so important to the both of them before he's ready. For as callous as these brothers can be... they are unfortunately the sentimental type, too.]
Naturally, he wants to show exactly the kind of idol HiMERU has become. The time for that will come, though. With all of us here, perhaps it will be the most opportune to demonstrate just what Crazy:B is all about.
[Their set-list would probably be pretty limited, though. Rinne and Niki would be lucky to know three of their songs at this point.]
No, I was thinking more of performing for him while we are here. Since this island seems to have better resources than the Nest, and we have friends who are here, it might be a good time to do so.
[It felt awkward to do it at the Nest because people kept dying, but so far no one is dead here yet. Maybe they can use it as a way to lift people's spirits up.]

done
I thought I was messaging Nii-san, but it seems I accidentally sent the messages to you, HiMERU-san. I'm sorry about that.

Happy birthday, Hiiro. What are you up to now?
no subject
Is that so? Then I am glad to entertain! I am still looking for Nii-san. Do you happen to know where he went?
By the way, I still have cake back on the island. Would you like some, HiMERU-san? I could not bring it out, but I wanted everyone to have a piece.
no subject
HiMERU is planning to make his way over to that side now, coincidentally. We could meet up that way, if you would like.
