Everyone here's proven themselves to be pretty smart. I think we've all got our various options in mind. Just that the mentality has gotten a bit too used to being dour... obviously, we can all understand why.
I'm not a machinist whatsoever, so I can't exactly offer any insight... but Famine allegedly is? So we're lucky to have him, circumstances aside.
[ famine might not be part of their numbers, but it still works out. ]
That's out of my skillset, too. I'm a bit more used to memoria—a substance than can hold memories—being manipulated for this kind of dimensional travel, but I think it's a bit more hopeful on this side overall.
It helps actually being able to interact with everyone we've sorely missed, on top of being able to actually see how the rest are doing to boot. We're at an informational advantage.
It makes more sense with context, but without.... it's best to think abstractly about it.
[ robin would explain but she's not her brother. ]
All of that does create a better atmosphere. [ and as if she just remembered something: ] Speaking of informational advantage, I've been told: happy belated birthday.
[ Robin should start a cameo. Anyway he's vaguely flustered when the ball is put in his court. It's a little bit embarrassing to ask when the premise for it is 'it's his birthday'. ]
[ I never know what's going on elsewhere in any mini-game considering I wake up to it like 4 hours late minimum every time. But help, Sound of Music... cute. He listens with a quiet and polite attentiveness, he's good audience.
And gives her a small polite clap when she's done. ]
[ Every day can be Robin's birthday if we dream... but also given it takes place across multiple planets and Gallagher is 13 years old I feel like I can't actually blame them too hard for the lack of HSR birthdays. ]
We don't exactly have a calendar, do we...? It just so happens that where I last left off, it was late September, so my birthday would essentially fall right around there since it's around late autumn.
[ So basically unless I take him from a weird made-up canonpoint it's always going to be his birthday-ish more or less a month into a game. Free birthday cake excuse. ]
You could ask around? I'm sure we'd all take any opportunity to celebrate a little good thing.
[ they can translate it to the trailblaze calendar (ours)
does robin even know what a september is this is too much to think about at 1am
she nods. the context gives her all the info she needs. ]
It's something we can keep track of. Even if we have no sense of time of the year, we can still keep track of days gone by. I wonder.... if most of our calendars are compatible with each other.
[ thinks about tales of the abyss' insane calendar ]
Are they? Ours is 365 days a year, split into twelve months, about an average of thirty to thirty-one days per. About three months per season, spring, summer, fall, winter, basically.
[ Is that what you have in Penacony, Robin? Is it? ]

I appreciate the honest. All right. I'll grant you this. It is a lullaby.
[ still, even after all she did to try to wake people up. ]

[ Thinks about how their first partygame Geto dared him to sing a little so he did a little short lullaby. Things are coming full circle. ]

robin smiles and obliges. she sings him a song from her childhood, something short and sweet. these kind of vibes. ]

That was nice. Very comforting. Thank you, Robin.

It's an honor. Although it makes me wonder if anyone else's birthdays have passed while here....
