why do people normally ask this question?
i saw lance's messages
about birthdays

[ and celebrations! but he doesn't mention that part. ]

[goldsteins]

Sure, they ask but this was rather sudden.
Are you going to tell me yours then?

[suffusive]

[ without hesitation. ]

twenty-first of november

[goldsteins]

[Well.

She doesn't respond for a minute because technically there is another date she could or should give, but she doesn't expect him to know.]

August 19th.

[suffusive]

that's very soon!
i suppose you'd prefer to avoid a spectacle

[goldsteins]

It's not something I do anything for.

[it's too bad she can't make text sound pointed.]

[suffusive]

[ he can imagine. ]

of course not

[ convincing. ]

[goldsteins]

Is that all?

[suffusive]

yes.

[ if he knew how to use emojis, there would be a smiley face. ALAS. ]

[goldsteins]

Then I should tell you I don't do surprises.

[LOOK.]

[suffusive]

should you?
i hadn't realized surprises would be relevant.

[ :) :) :) :) ]

[goldsteins]

I mean it, Newt.
Birthdays aren't important to me.

[Unless it's Queenie's, but. Queenie is basically her world so.]

[suffusive]

[ sometimes he feels like she imagines half their conversations, and he has to deny things he never said omg?? (maybe he thought them maybe ]

i won't make a fuss
you have my word

[goldsteins]

[Look maybe he asked this in a letter once and she was already suspicious, but him mentioning her not wanting anything made it worse especially non-committal answers.]

Sorry. I'd just prefer not to have any mention of it further.

[suffusive]

[ he won't bother replying to that bc NOT MENTIONING IT ANY FURTHER. ]

[goldsteins]

[WOW THAT'S RUDE??? You don't just hang up texting on people, now she won't respond to him next time.

(Okay she will, she's not that petty).]
