[On the morning of September 25th, Kenichi knew he had a parental obligation to keep. Little did he know, the mognet decided to be glitchy and show this private video public. Kenichi has several band-aids on his face and hands. ]

Hey, Takeshi. You know what today is? Did you honestly expect your mom not to tell me? Don't worry, I promise no surprise drop ins like how your mom did back in Crystallis.

When Saori told me she adopted you, I didn't know what to say at first but I'm glad she did. I'm proud to call you my son. Thanks for putting up with me as your old man.

So, happy birthday, Takeshi. Next time you're in the area, dinner is on me. And don't mind the band-aids, they're just scratches I promise.

[There are a series of reactions he has to this. First: Oh gods; mom, why? Second: Dad no why did you have to remind him. He'd been embarrassed enough he'd forgotten a shirt and relieved that no one else was home, though he'd have to explain the scarring sooner or later. Why you gotta remind him of that surprise knock on his window that day? Third: Oh, sweet Darkness, this is-]

Uh, Dad...? You realize this is public, right? [HE IS PURPOSELY HIDING HIS FACE IN HIS HANDS; YOU CANNOT MAKE HIM SHOW HOW RED HE IS.]

Aw, that's so cute.

[ She sounds way too amused about this. ]

So uh, did you mean to post this for everyone? I mean I'm all for embarrassing friends and family on their birthdays but this kinda sounds like you meant to keep it one-on-one.

[ Just. The impressions she's getting. ]

Now, I had no idea our dear Takeshi had a father. How lucky he is to have one such as you, so gracious and open with affection and pride.

Happy birthday, Takeshi, and all the best for the coming year. I know you will continue to make all of us proud. Do try and take some time to celebrate.
