[ Oh no. He should have known this would happen when he sent those letters to Lumine in a fit of drunken pique. But their Honorary Knight is so popular and busy, he'd been really hoping the date would just slip through her memory amidst all the other birthdays he's sure she must keep track of. Is this going to happen every year? Is he going to have to be reminded that there's at least one or two people out there in the world who care enough about him to remember his birthday every year? This is the worst thing that could ever happen to him. ]
Ah, but how could I possibly have the happiest birthday if I don't get to spend it with my favorite Honorary Knight? I'd invite you for a drink, but unfortunately we're rather short on the neccessities in this town, so...want to go see if we can fish out a lake monster?
[ Boy, these 'phones' sure are handy for letting him sound smooth when he's really a hot birthday denying mess! ]
[ yes, this will happen every year. yes, it will happen to everyone. no, no one's exempted. archons, stop being a lonely little shit during your birthdays, kaeya. ]
Is that really how you'd want to spend your birthday?

Well, as I said, there aren't any drinks in town...anyway, not a fan of the lake? If you have any other ideas, I'm all ears.
[ no, he's not deflecting by completely avoiding an actual answer to her question, what makes you think that.... ]

I actually don't have other ideas. Let's go to the lake, then.
