Fifth Study •§• Leonardo •§• Buon compleanno! Happy birthday, Leo! [In person//Back dated to Friday]
[Since arriving in space, Leonardo hadn't known what to do with himself - there was so much to study! So many sketches to make, so much information to learn! Taking a brief break from his studies and investigations, the polymath entered the kitchen to make himself something to eat-
Only to come across much more than he expected.]
Quello che il...*what the...
[In the middle of the dining table is a large cake, with the general colour scheme of the decorations dark blue and gold. The number 25 is printed on the balloons, and various stands of cupcakes are dotted around the room. At the back is a large gold banner saying his name and 'Happy Birthday' - in short, the Authors usual for birthdays, but with different colours~
Leonardo just stands and blinks at it all, before actually realising that the banner does not lie!]
...It is April already...?
[Aaaaand GRIN]
[Video - So very open to the entire network]
Everyone-! There is cake in the kitchen! I would love it if some of you could join me~! I cannot eat it all by myself~♥
[End feed]

[Malone seems to be hanging by his knees from the stair railing]
Is it delicious and moist? [he gets a sour, disapproving look like he's been fooled too many times before] ...it's not a lie, is it?
[Video]
I believe so - it certainly looks good!
[Oblivious to the picture on the front of the cake, Leonardo has already taken numerous photo's of it on his blackberry]
..How can a cake be a lie?
[Video]
I've had baked goods promised before, and been denied. If I get there and find that the cake is a lie, I'm going to shake my fist very sternly at you. [he giggles like he's just told a hilarious joke]
[Video]
Well, I can assure you this is all real - look, see?
[Holding up a cupcake, to the camera]

Although admittedly I forgot the day myself - it's quite hard to keep track of time here, no?
[Video -> in person]
[Have a masked face peering through the doorframe]
Ooooh, they look tasty! So, you're Leonardo? I'm Malone, the Human Key!
[In person]
[He turns suddenly when the voice seems far closer than before]
Aah, hello! It's good to meet you!
[In person]
[He's going to be edging over to one of the cupcake displays]

[Voice]
Oh, I didn't do anything! I believe this is the Authors doing~
Please, feel free to join me - there's plenty to go around ( ^-^ )

Gosh, is it your birthday?
no subject
Would you like something to drink? Some cake perhaps~?
[He's already on his second cupcake]
no subject
[her worries and nerves forgotten, she smiles at him]
My three favourite things in life. Thank you.
And happy birthday, darling.
[In person?]
It is my pleasure, la mia donna - I'm so glad to get to enjoy your company as well
[Like the charming child that he is, Leonardo's smile quickly broadens into a grin as he looks around at the decorations]
Grazie~! To tell you the truth, I'd actually completely lost track of time! So this is truly a pleasant surprise
[In person]
Oh, wait, you must let me go to my room and get you a gift!
[In person]
[He holds his hands up, smiling]
No no, you needn't worry about that!
[Taking her hands in his]
I can assure you, your company is enough

[Interesting that the Author celebrates birthdays. He'll have to make note of that in his list of "Things the Author Does and Doesn't in Terms of Interfering with the Residents' Lives." Yes, it's a long title. No, he does not intend to shorten it.]
Would you mind bringing some cake to my room? [And for extra incentive.] I have something interesting to show you.
oops
No worries - I figured anyways! XD ♥
Grazie, amico~!
Of course I will - though now I'm curious to see what it is you have to show me!
[*~Location Skip 2000!~*]
[At the same door he was requested to visit when Near first arrived, Leonardo knocks happily, a piece of cake on a plate in hand. Feel flattered, Near - you're getting the Mona Lisa's left shoulder!]
In Person
It goes around in two small circles first before finally making its way back to Near, who shuts off the annoying device.]
Hmm, still needs work.
[In Person]
[You bet he's looking. Anything with sugar he'll go for as long as it's not green and blue cakes with gold has his attention.]
[In Person]
As do I~! I had completely forgotten about it, so I'm glad the Author did at least!
[He blinks, and looks around]
The 'Mona Lisa'? What is that~?
[In Person]
That one. It's one of my favorites!
[Although back home, he put a big blue mustache and goatee on it because he knew the painting was a forgery and marked it as such just to spite the curators for their egregious mistake as passing it off as the real deal.]
[In Person]
[That sounds mighty fine to him 8Dd]
Well, it certainly looks good, no~? Would you like some? I've put off cutting it up, but I suppose it would be a waste not to enjoy it
[In Person]
[He felt a pang in his chest that something so elaborate would soon become something he would eat. The blue and gold decorations of the cupcakes was a little ironic to him. Blue and black were his colors while Metro Man's were gold and white. He recalled the symbolism from the museum dedications and the irony was pretty clear. Each one was a start of a new beginning.]
I'm fine with the cupcakes. Still, someone took a lot of care in making that cake and it would be a shame to let such fine art go to waste.
[In Person]
A painting you say?..Well...I think when I get to actually do it in the future, I will remember to paint her eyelashes and brows..
[He looks thoughtful]
Perhaps I just left it unfinished..
[In Person]
[That's how he was able to tell from the fakes and the original.]
Her smile becomes the most famous in the world! Trust me, it's fine the way it is.
[In Person]
Leonardo smiles and nods, looking back at Megamind]
I agree - I cannot wait to meet the person who models it for me! I wonder what she'll be like..
[What he doesn't realise is that it'll actually be a man in the future..]
[In Person]
Err- I'm sure whoever you get to do this will be remembered for eternity.

That's a nice looking cake.

[Video/Audio?]
[Video] So forgot to put that :\
[Video] Loll it's fine XD
[In Person]
Happy birthday Leonardo.
[In Person]
Grazie~! But you didn't need to get me anything, Shaun - you're too kind
[In Person] /because I had to use this icon
Well, I'd feel bad if I didn't. I managed to find a bottle of that stuff we had the other week.
[He looks to the cake and stifles a laugh. Oh the irony of it all.]
You uh, are aware of the significance of that painting right?
[In Person] 8DD A-BRO HUG?
So it is~! I'm quite mystified as to how many bottle you seem to have stashed away, but I'm certainly not complaining!
Come, let's share some now-
[He blinks, and looks down at the cake]
Painting? You mean the portrait on the cake? No, I'm not..
