[ Lacus is just gonna run her hand over Nona's head for as long as they stay like this. ]
Birthday parties can be all different - they're meant to make the person who's birthday it is happy, so they can be altered to their tastes. But with party hats, the cupcakes Haruka made and your friends here, you've already got a pretty classic one going!
A few of them did, when I was little! My father would invite all my friends over and set up a buffet in the garden for us. We'd then play games until sunset...
[ Which was not all that different from Lacus' usual hangouts with her friends. Look, she likes the garden. ]
At one of my more recent birthday parties, Kira and the children we take care of baked a cake together. Kira's mother offered to help, but they wanted to surprise me with something they'd made all on their own. It was a little misshapen, but absolutely delicious!
[ And then her last birthday was just kinda during wartime again and doesn't really count. That's how it is in life. ]

I love you as well, Nona! Of course I would come!
[ That hug is returned warmly. Nona can get so much hugging today. ]

[She leans into the hug, listening to the beating of her heart, a reminder that Lacus is alive.]
I've never been to a birthday party so I'm not sure what makes one a birthday party but I'm glad it has you in it.

Everyone being here makes me happy.
What were your birthday parties like? Did they have party hats?
