That's a very nice gift.

Happy Birthday, Yuma.

Yeah! It was really unexpected too!!

Thanks, Shinji!!

::Shoves a present box into your hands, dweeb, as you leave your dorm room. It's very creepy wrapping paper.::

*Yuma is taken by surprise at first, but grins when he sees that what Akae has given him if a gift! He doesn't seem too off-put by the creepy wrapping paper.*

Oh, hey!! Thanks Akae!!

*He wastes no time in opening it!*

::It seems to be a semi-custom book of "Popular Legends and Oddities of the 12 Dimensions".::

*Yuma holds the book and reads the title with interest. He then smiles and looks up at Akae.*

This looks really interesting! I'd really love to learn more about other worlds and this is perfect!
Thanks so much, Akae!!

N-no problem!

You said you liked adventure, and I figured, well. Uh. Yeah!

Haha! Yeah!!

*He looks over the book again, flicking through some of the pages, he notices that it looks semi-custom.*

Did you buy this somewhere, or make some of it yourself?

Uh, a bit of column A and column B. Mom helped a bit.

That's great that you added your own stuff to it! That makes it even more special!

Uh. Thanks. Sorry!

*Yuma laughs a little.*

Why are you saying you're sorry?

I. I don't know!

*He laughs again, before placing a hand on her shoulder.*

You don't need to say sorry if someone compliments you on a gift!

I-I know, just. Ugh!

::Stomps away, flailing her arms awkwardly.::

*he's trying to find Yuma sometime in the very early evening, but he manages to spot him around the island*

Yuma...!

*Yuma turns around and sees Hitoshi, giving him a wave as he approaches!*

Hey, Hitoshi!!

*he catches up to him, looking sheepish*

I-I've been looking around for you. Since... since it's your birthday, today.

*Yuma grins in response.*

Yeah, it sure is!!

Y-yeah, so... Happy Birthday.

*you notice now that he was carrying a box with him. It's not wrapped up, but it's pretty carefully closed and secured. he offers it to Yuma.*

I'd... probably set it down before opening it.

Oh? Okay! Thanks, Hitoshi!

*Yuma takes the box from Hitoshi and sets it down onto the ground, he then opens the box, wondering what could be inside it.*

*It seems to be a marbled box. actually pretty nice quality, especially with the details-- but when you feel it, your senses likely honed from the artifacts you've gotten over the years from your parents tells you this box must be some centuries old...! There's even an envelope next to it, and if you open it, it contains a letter of information about where the box is from (it was apparently found in central Europe and, as you guessed, is quite old), and when it was found (about the last half-century).

Hitoshi looks a little sheepish about it.*

I... know you like ancient artifact stuff, so I figured, maybe... I asked my grandmother back home if she had any ideas, and she sent me that, so... I hope you like it, at least.

*Yuma looks the box over slowly and with a lot of care, something he doesn't really usually do with things, but it's obvious that he instantly knows this is an old and precious artefact. He reads the information in the letter carefully as well, noting where it was from and how old the item is. A very fond and grateful smile appears on Yuma's face as he looks over at Hitoshi.*

This is amazing, Hitoshi! It was really super nice of your grandmother to give it to you as well! This is a really precious item, so I'll definitely make sure to look after it.

*he seems so relieved that you like it. he must've really been nervous.*

Y-yeah... I'm glad. I'm glad you like it. And... It is really nice of her to do that. I'll make sure to tell her you really liked it, too. So... Happy Birthday.

*He notices how relieved Hitoshi seems, but he knows he can be quite a nervous and shy type of person sometimes.*

Thanks so much, Hitoshi! Tell your grandmother that I'll look after it and that I thank her too!

*Sat up on the top bunk, Yuya looks up from the magazine he's reading when Yuma enters the dorm room. He'd taken the time while Yuma was out to set up a little something for his birthday. He waited to see if he'd notice the yellow post-it note he'd left on the desk.*

Hey bud!

*Yuma greeted Yuya was he walked in, but as he did, he does notice the little note on the desk. Yuma curiously picks it up and reads it.*

'Happy birthday, Yuma! I know you like being challenged, so here is a challenge for you. I've placed clues around the room. Solving the clue will lead to the next clue and eventually lead to your hidden present!

Your first clue is: 3 books in.'

*Yuma looks curiously over Yuya.*

A challenge....?

I always like to give presents with something fun attached to it!
So... up for the challenge?

photo hell-yeah-im-awesome_zpsktbctfg0.png

*Yuma grins at his friend in response.*

Of course I am! KATTOING DA, ORE!!!

Now...

*Yuma looks at the clue in his hand again, then looks around the dorm room.*

Three books in... three books in...
...ah-ha!

*On the desk, there is a small collection of books between two book ends, where they kept books they were studying from, as well as books they just enjoyed reading, but there were quite a few and Yuma didn't know which end to count from.
He counted from one end, one... two... three... but the third book he landed on had nothing on or in it, so he placed it back and counted from the other end;
One... two... three! His finger landed on the book about Entermate monsters that Yuzu had gotten Yuya for the secret santa at Christmas. Pulling it out, there was a new yellow note stuck on the back of it. Yuma took it off and read it out loud.*

'You found the first clue!
Your second clue is: Where clothes are hung.'

Oh man, that's an easy one!!

I had to think these up quickly earlier so, yeah, some of them are a bit easy.

*To be honest, he'd considered doing harder riddles, but he felt Yuma would of struggled with those too much and he didn't want Yuma getting too frustrated and spending all evening trying to figure out riddles to get to his present.*

*Yuma quickly heads over to their dorms small closet and opens the door. He instantly sees the next clue on the back of one of the doors and snatches it off, before closing the door and reading the next clue.*

'The third clue is: It's time to sleep.'

The hammock...!

*Yuma went over to his hammock where he usually sleeps and looks in it, and then under it. There is no clue. He stands, thinks and realized the clue must be hidden in one of the other bunks.
He checks around the first one, but he couldn't find the clue, so he climbs into the middle bunk. He looks around, checking behind some of the artefacts that he kept on that one. Eventually he removes a small wood carved statue and stuck on the wall behind it was the next clue.*

ALRIGHT! I found it!!

*Yuma seemed to be having fun seeking out and finding the clues which made Yuya smile. That was his aim, after all.*

There are six clues in total. So you only two more left to find!

Edited 2015-06-20 18:21 (UTC)

*Yuma looked at the new clue in his hand.*

'The fourth clue is: Cover up your face.'

Hmmn...

*Yuma jumped down from the middle bunk and glanced around the room. After a few minutes, his eyes fell on the tribal mask he had hanging on the wall between the closet and the bunk beds. Going over to it, he took it off the wall and the fifth clue was stuck on the wall under it.*

AH-HA! Now just one more to find!!

photo alright-time-for-some-smiles_zpsto5lg6oz.png

Yup! And the sixth and final clue will be where your present is hidden!

photo do-pancakes-have-pan-inside-them_zpslvrlimdn.png

Okay let's see...
'The fifth clue is: Eagle, Jackal and what?'

*Yuma looked around in thought.*

An eagle and a jackal...? So I guess something with animals on it... hmmmn...

*It took him a good five minutes to get it. He had to admit this was a good one, but he eventually remembered the small carved totem pole he kept in the back corner of the room. Two of the animals on it were an eagle and a jackal... the last animal was a bear.
Yuma looked behind the bear part of the totem pole and found the sixth and final clue!*

ALRIGHT! ALMOST THERE!
'The sixth and final clue leads to your birthday present!!
Let's go on an adventure....!!'

*So something to do with adventure...
The first place Yuma checked was the back of the picture of his parents, but there wasn't anything there.
Okay, this was a difficult one too, it could mean anything...!*

Think about what you do when you go to explore something!

Hmmn... what I usually do...? Well, I pretty much just go where ever I feel like going, though I usually take my adventuring stuff with me because...

...OH! OH OH! My Adventuring stuff!!

*With that Yuma quickly made his way over the the treasure chest by the bunk beds and opened it. That was where he kept his bag with his compass, flashlights, rope ect. in it, but when he picked it up, he noticed it felt way heavier than usual!
He opened the bag, put his hand in and pulled out a neatly wrapped up present.*

I FOUND IT!!

*Yuya throws his arms into the air with excitement!*

Alright! Way to go, Yuma!
Now open it!

*Yuma grins as he begins to open the present. Once open, he could see that it was a hardback cover book, the cover of which was displaying pictures of various different old artefacts.
The title read 'The History of Artefacts From Around the World'.*

When I found it, I flicked through it and saw a few things that looked similar to your parents stuff, so I figured you might like a book like that!

*Yuma flicked through some of the pages with interest, before looking up at Yuma and smiling!*

This is awesome!! Thanks so much, Yuya!!
The treasure hunt was really fun too!

*Yuya grinned back at Yuma in response, happy that he liked both the treasure hunt and the present!*

No problem!
Happy 17th birthday, Yuma!!

I'm really happy that you like it, Yuma!
You seemed serious about wanting to concentrate on Action Dueling, so we got you that duel disk so they'd be easier for you.

This is really going to help out loads with that! It was harder to move around an Action Duel field with the D-Pad Duel Disk!

Thanks so much, Kotori!

It's no problem, Yuma.
Just remember to thank your sister and grandmother too, okay?

Don't worry! I will! I'll call them in a moment!

Good.

Happy birthday, Yuma. Have a really good day, okay?

I'll make sure of it!
Thanks again, Kotori!
