Good morning, Luceti! I'm twenty-one today!
[And clearly, she's just a little font of joy because of it.]
This is the first birthday I've had outside of my tower at home. I know Eugene had a rave, but what has everyone else done for their birthdays while they've been here? Or, I suppose if you haven't had a birthday here, what did you typically do?
[Action]
[Elizabeth doesn't take the day off, even though it's her birthday. She's happy being out and about, enjoying the day and being in the village. She goes to the grocery store, pokes around the item shop and clothing shop a little, picks up some of Booker's preferred whiskey at Good Spirits... she's even running errands she really doesn't have to run. And while she loves the library, today she chooses to read for a bit outdoors--because otherwise she'd spend all day inside. It's a good day to be alive, and that's how Elizabeth is viewing it, and she's going to spend it out in the world. For the first time.]

The smile does offer some comfort. Seems like she didn't totally hate him in that.]
It's okay...I deserved it. Last thing anyone needs is getting their head bitten off after something so horrible as that.
[He was about to turn to leave as if to get out of her presence quicker, it's only when she mentions Gai that it makes him stop moving to hear this. Cross hadn't expected this. Any of that really. The man he tried to beat up and lost to, the one who seemed so arrogant, actually felt bad about it all?
All he can offer is him shaking his head.]
No, it's completely fine. You said it yourself back then. You were trying to protect someone you love. So I get it, really.
Action
Still, I'm sorry you were upset. I'm sorry everyone had to experience the whole thing.
Action 1/2
[But, now he was probably detracting from her wonderful happy day. Crap, okay he needs a quick fix-]
Action 2/2
Well, I'm glad that's all settled! Sort of. Kind of.
Right, so you're celebrating your birthday, huh? In that case...
[He looks around quickly. What do? What dooooo...? AH!
He soon offers the book he had been reading out to her.]
Happy Birthday from me to you.
[Flawless.]
