Pardon me.

[As polite as ever; Daneel rarely speaks on the psychic network at large, though he listens enough. It's rude to interject, he feels.]

I'm interested in what you generally feel are acceptable birthday celebrations, and what sort of details are involved. Ambrose's birthday is very soon, and I would like to do something for him, but I have little cultural experience with birthday parties. Spacer culture is the one I know best, but birthday celebrations past childhood are not common for them.

What would you suggest is appropriate?

Also, I would greatly appreciate help with the creation of food and drink, for those of you capable of it.

That's really great of you to want to do! Uh, but what to do...

That's kind of a hard question to answer. Every place has its own idea of what a birthday party should be, if they even do that kind of thing. So... are you hoping to do something that he'll really enjoy because it's just like from home? Or are you wanting to do something that's just fun?

I mean, you can't go too wrong with cake, at the minimum.

I will definitely be sure there is cake.

I cannot hope to make something exactly as appropriate to his home, though I can certainly attempt to make note of his own traditions. Fun is foremost. I want him to enjoy himself. I believe that he deserves that.

Sounds like you've got the start of a plan! What kind of things does he find to be fun? Is he really social? Would he want lots of people there? Or just something quiet with close friends?

I mean, I know some people that really wouldn't like a big, noisy party, so... that's something to think about.
