[closed to solsticeanew] Birthdays, what are those.

[inordertobelieve]

 [ Teru doesn't care for birthdays and thus, he's quite fine with the fact that nobody at university  really knew about which date it was today. Of course, Takada had known, somehow, but accepting well-wishings from just one person alone isn't all that hindering. By the end of it, studying is studying. Teru appreciates it, even if - or maybe especially so - it takes until late evening. But long days come to an end too and the sun is just setting when Teru pulls the keys out of his pocket to open up his flat. 'Yagami; Mikami' the nameplate next to the door reads. Teru assumes Light is home already. ]

I'm back.

[ He calls it into the hallway, slipping out of his shoes. ]

[Light faces forward again and continues onto the table. There aren't any deviations from the usual in the way he has set up the table - no candles for romantic ambiance, no decorations that might suggest it's someone's birthday today, just a plain ordinary dinner set up with everything laid out neatly. As usual.]

I'm glad then.

[He takes his seat at the table, muttering the phrase 'itadakimasu' quietly before picking up his chopsticks.]

How did studying go?

[ The quiet 'itadakimasu' is mirrored in real time, but Teru lays off actually starting to eat for another moment so he can answer the question. ]

The same as usual. I do feel I was able to get a lot done, which is satisfying. There were astoundingly few people in the library today though.

[ Said with a bit of distaste. Why isn't everyone constantly studying, huh? Though he certainly doesn't mind when it's not crowded for himself personally. Teru stops speaking for a moment to take the first bite of food himself. ]

It's good.
