His birthday was a work day, and he didn't know how ot get that through Ignis's head. It was hard for Nida, but he tried to explain it, and when it was accepted, well, he accepted it. Especially when it was suggested that they could instead enjoy Ignis's brithday. That... That had been embraced with a lot of joy from Nida.

In fact, he'd gone out of the way to prepare for this. A new gift for his beloved, finding a confectioner in the city to create a cake for them both, and of course, the hard work of getting some time off. Three days. A time to be with his husband in the most decadent ways he could imagine. And he could imagine.

For now, though, he heard his lover call and Nida moved from the kitchen where he'd started some of the dinner prep in the form of the vegetable chopping he'd been asked for. He had come upstairs, still in his work uniform since he'd finally gotten back in from his last shift before their time together, and he smiled at Ignis. He looked so good.

"Hey love. You're looking good. I've already started chopping, but since you called, I came to your summons."
