[ Law goes in on those chips as he listens, and these absolutely hit home. You know how fast those things are gonna disappear into the bottomless, gaping pit of his stomach? Lightning fast. He doesn't even realize he's doing it, going full cookie monster mode while he nods and looks attentive. that MSG is like crack, man. ]
Geez... you sure it's okay to have something like that? This isn't really a "special occasion. " I mean—like, a major one.
[ Sure, birthdays are great and all, and yeah, after everything he's been through it's basically nothing short of a miracle that he's made it to an actually sort of adult age (never saw that coming, tbh), but "bust out your dad's fancy liquor" levels of momentous? Eh. That's probably just his bias talking, though. And he doesn't even know about Gladio and his dad! If he did, maybe he wouldn't be unceremoniously stuffing his hamster cheeks, he'd take it more seriously. Over a year in this place and frankly, the Dad Angst has only gotten more complicated. Then you add to that all the things he's seen his friends go through, the times they've been a lot less fortunate than him, things like that... yeah, he doesn't have any business not being solemn about that kind of thing. ]
