'Tis my hope that this message will reach thee in time, however I must confess that that I hath not yet initiated this manner of communication with any kind of success. If any other than Thancred doth receive this message, I prithee ignore the contents.
I write to you now from the library of Castle Thorne where I hath sequesered myself these last few days. 'Twas while perusing a newly-found tome on Abraxan astronomy that mine attention was drawn towards the rising of the new moon following Heavensturn, which did serve to remind me that an important date draweth near.
Art thou aware Himeka's birthday is but a handful of days away?
[ While Urianger could have simply waited until he came back to their shared living space to have this conversation, Thancred can gather that he wants to test out the process of sending missives this way.
And what a formal and overly wordy missive it is. Not that he would expect anything less. ]
To be entirely honest with you, I had not given it much thought. Yet given that almost a moon has passed since the turn of the year, you are correct that her nameday must be coming up.
Shall I assume you'd like to mark the occasion in some way?
It gladdens me to know my communication reached thee, and not some other. I believe I may now claim a full understanding of this process.
Of course I wish to mark the occasion: Himeka is a dear friend, after all, and 'tis important to observe such a passage of time with warmth and good cheer. I can think of none other who deserve it more than she.
Mayhap we could travel to Nocwich together in search of a suitable gift?
Perhaps not quite as obviously as that. However, I think if the three of us were to visit her in the Horizon together to celebrate with her, there is little else should would prefer.
Sometime before Himeka's birthday!
Dearest Thancred,

[ Does this mean that Urianger is going to be sending him novels all the time now? Such is his fate. ]
No arguments there. While we certainly could travel to Nocwich as you say, I do wonder if a certain newly arrived Miqo'te might not do the trick.

Thou refereth to G'raha?

So then. Thy suggestion is to lead G'raha to Himeka and present him as a gift?

Mayhap we could prepare a nostalgic space that we might leave them to spend the eve alone?

Though knowing them, they'll do little with the perfect opening we grant them.
