An annoyed Jinnai sat down to tea with Deva and TV-Ifurita. He was holding a small colorful card.

"What's that?" Ifurita asked.

"A birthday card from Nanami," said Jinnai. "Earth people send cards to each other on their birthdays."

"How nice," Deva said. "You might not get along with your sister, but at least she thought of you. What does the card say?"

Jinnai read the card:
"Roses are red,
Green is the leek.
Have a rotten birthday,
You crazy weirdo freak."

"It's... the thought that counts?" Deva said weakly.

"Yes," Jinnai said dryly, "it is."
