(Not like you should, anyway. Sarge. She asked you not to! ... right, that's right, she did. Ugh. No. You said it, Asset.)
The proud statement melts the last of the annoyance into a sigh and a sheepish head-duck. "Yeah, okay, I'm not quite what I was then, anymore." They'll give her that. "But I still don't think I'm likely to remember any birthdates. We'll just stick with September and leave it at that, yeah?"
