It was a normal daily routine for Ink.

He checks Au's, annoy Error, fight Error.. Just the same thing like yesterday.

But there's something Ink thought that was strange..

FLASHBACK✨

It was morning, Ink woke up at the sight of the bright sun that shone on their base.

He heard Dream and Blue giggling about something, as he entered the kitchen, Dream and Blue began to act like nothing happened. It was weird-

*t i m e s k i p*

After patrolling Candytale, he swore he saw Dream and Blue sneaking around the corner.

*t i m e s k i p*

After that, he mostly annoyed Error until Error fights him and make him leave for good.

END OF FLASHBACK✨

Ink went back to the base, he was confused on what is happening today.

No, he's not sad that his friends are keeping something from him, just curious, as if he had the capacity to actually feel sadness in the first place anyways.

The lights were suspiciously closed and it is very dark in the base. Ink finally decided to open the lights.

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!" Dream and Blue shouted. There were banners and confetti everywhere.

They were both planning for his birthday for the whole day.

Dream and Blue dragged Ink to the dining area, where stood a big chocolate cake.

Instead of a heartfelt reaction that they were both expecting, Ink stood there and spoke,

"It's my birthday today?" Ink confusedly asked himself.

He began to search his scarf for this 'birthday' they prepared for.

Blue and Dream are just silent, confused on what's happening, Ink is just searching his scarf, even dragging more from his inventory.

After 30 scarfs,

"Oh. It's April 15. It really is my birthday.." Ink spoke.

"Wait.. Where did the cake go?" Ink curiously asked, the big chocolate cake vanished out of thin air.

"Anyways, have our gifts!" Dream spoke, handing over the gifts wrapped in yellow and blue wrapping paper.

Those two gifts were full of art supplies.

"Uhh.. Thanks?" Ink spoke, he can't really feel gratitude.

Happy Birthday Ink!

Extra: 

A certain someone is munching on the chocolate cake, halfway finished.

"Yo! Yo! Broski! How'd you poppin?" Fresh spoke.

Fresh stumbled upon Error, eating chocolate cake, handful still in his mouth, with icing still on his face.

Fresh just left, he didn't say anything at all.
