<Gate 4... Communications Center...
[Justicar] "CONSOLE, send this message to Gate 7..."
[CONSOLE] "No problem Boss.">

*at Gate 7*

{YOTSUYA}: "Incoming message, sir.."
{Frank}: "Of course...send a reply at once..."

<-----
<To my SDGP partner SD-Frank,>

And thusly, to my SDGP partner SD-Justy,

<HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!>

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

*Frank throws a pillow at YOTSUYA's screen*

{YOTSUYA}: "You said to type a reply...
{Frank}: "Right, but it's redundant..."
{YOTSUYA}: "Always the English major..."

<You gift would have arrived today, had I not sent via airmail. It crash
landed on
some gas power station in Victoria, Australia. Its a good thing that the
Aussies don't know that I sent it ^_^. What "it" exactly was, I can't say
what it was... Washu got it... some Ruby whatchamicallit. I don't know...
it was a neat little statuette thing that Washu pulled out of some game. >

Indeed, my gift to you was also...similarly delayed. It landed in a remote 
power plant near the old Russia. Funny you should mention a Ruby thingee...
I could have sworn that the name of the thing I was sending was called 
Emerald somethingorwhatever...one of those cute robo-thingamobobs that 
Ami-clone recreated from the game....^_^

<Anyways... I hope that you enjoy every last bit of cake that Akane-Clone
and Nuku Nuku baked up for you. It looked pos-i-tively yummy!!>

{Akane-clone}: "Happy birthday, Frank-kun!"
*a cake is shown, pink in color*
{Frank}: "Ah! Strawberry pudding cake...?"
{Akane-clone}: "Nope! Chocolate pudding!" *kawaii smile*

*Frank facefaults*

*Silk and the rest of the crew walk in with a big box*

{Silk}: "And now...the grand finale present...a year's supply of alcohol!"
{Frank}: "Woo-hoo!"

*the sheet is taken off, with no alcohol in it*

{Frank}: "Hey! What the @#$@ happened to it all?"

*YOTSUYA is shown in the background, slightly red in the screen. On 
screen, a drunkenly dancing digital Mrs. Ichinose and Akemi are seen...*

{Ami-clone}: "Crap...we're late for the party at the CoN suites...!"
{Frank}: "Party?" *piku*
{Ami-clone}: "Yes, silly...yours and Justy's...YOTSUYA, D-Door..!"
{YOTSUYA}: *drunkenly* "At onsh..shur..."
{Frank}: "ARGH! I should have known it was y-" *the G7 crew is gated out*

<- - -
[Nabiki] "Well I hope you don't plan on jumping into the food here... Then
again, its your party, got to town... In fact the first piece is on me."
*Nabiki shoves the cake into Justy's face and the rest of the crew joins 
in.*>

*the G7 crew appears slightly above the munching carnage and lands on top 
of it, spattering everyone with Akane-clone's cake*

<Happy B-Day Frank...>

Same to you, man. Have a great B-day.

I'm off to my own festivities...^_-
