Suguro gets mad because all he’s done since coming back from Azazel is sleep, eat, sleep and sleep. He then says “Furthermore, Shiro Fujimoto is Azazel’s clone, so does that mean the Okumura brothers inherited the blood of Azazel’s nephilim…?” Lightning tells him “You should get a little rest, Ryuuji”, and to leave it to him. Lightning wakes up and asks him what he’s doing, and he says “005 is probably Satan” and asks to take out more materials on it. He then notices that the experiment record for 005 is missing. When he looks at the picture, he’s shocked because it’s Shiro Fujimoto, the former Paladin. He says “Lightning has slept straight since then” and as he starts going through the clone paperwork, he sees the name “Shiro” for number 004. Rin and Konekomaru are on the Food Team, and they are pricing out Turkey (and wow, it IS really expensive - $200), and they decide on karaage and chirashi (yum yum) instead.īack with Suguro, he’s going through documents while Lightning sleeps on the couch. Yukio says “I heard that Lightning is taking you around everywhere, it must be tough”, and Suguro says he he likes it. Yukio realizes that he was mistaken about who invited him…that the other party is the Arch Knight Lightning, and there’s no way to refuse him. Yukio refuses, and he says Suguro must also be busy, and Suguro agrees. Yukio says he’ll leave it to Suguro since he’s not good at this sort of thing, and Suguro tells him that if he’s busy or still too hurt, Yukio can go home and just come to the party the next day. The Decoration Team, Yukio and Suguro, are shopping. They get into the shop and she is very girly over the cake while Shima calls her “cute”. Shima says Izumo is different from him now, and she says they are the same. They fight about him being a spy some more, and she says that she never thought she’d do thinks like stand in like for christmas cake or worry about Shiemi Moriyama. He says he won’t because it’s his chance at a date with her. Shima balks, but Izumo says there’s no many opportunities to buy a whole cake, and that if he wants to go home, he can. They come to the cake shop, but there’s a really long line out the door. Izumo wonders why she’s stuck with him, and he says “Let’s have some fun.” She replies that she’s worried about Shiemi, and asks “Do you know something!?” but he replies that he’s not a spy like that and that he doesn’t know anything. Izumo and Shima are together (in the Cake Team). They think of some really…strange…reasons, and Shima laughs and says “she just wasn’t suited for this and wanted to do something else, and maybe she just wanted to have fun with everyone at the party.” Yukio agrees, and then we see them go on their separate ways. Konekomaru thinks it might be a hopeless situation instead. Afterwards, the group is discussing it again and Yukio says there’s no way she’s dying, but there’s a high possibiity that something else happened. Rin tries to bring it up again and Yukio grabs him and they leave. Shiemi gives everyone their assignments for the part (Rin and Miwa on food, decorations Yukio and Suguro, and cake is Shima and Izumo). Rin decides he’ll ask her directly, and Yukio and Izumo hold him back and tell him it’s a their secret. He says it’s not very probable because her health examination was excellent, and everyone calms down. Izumo says “I’m serious, isn’t it strange that she would suddenly do that!? She was fixated on becoming an exorcist, and she worried about being opposed!” She keeps going until Yukio tells them to calm down. Rin says “this just occurred to me, but… could she be dying…?” The others stare at him, but Izumo says “I also thought that”, and Bon says it, too. Yukio tells them to have fun but Shiemi says “No, you are going, too! That’s obvious, right!?” Yukio gives in, and Rin says that’s the first time Shiemi’s ever been so forceful with Yukio and the others agree. There’s a flashback to her suggestion about a big birthday party for everyone.

Rin is upset about Shiemi’s decision to quit being an exorcist. The title is “Happy (Merry Christmas) Birthday! Eve” If there are mistakes or typos, my bad, I type this up as I read it. Anyway, I did it this month, so I figured I’d throw it up here. So, I do this with Noragami every month, but this may or may not become a monthly thing depending on my schedule.
