[He sighs.]
I will always accept it at a later date, if it's that much of a trouble, if you're that insistent on enjoying your 'birthday'.

[From Here!]
Boo, Colonel! The people here are so stingy and tasteless! I haven't had one marriage proposal! Can you believe it?
[Of course he's happy to see her. Why would he be anything else?]
Are you going to rescue me from these horrible people? [In general or with a proposal? It's hard to say.]

Yeah. I was just thinking that, honestly.
[And that was almost uncanny, unless the man had people make similar mistakes in the past.]

[What a strange way of treating friendship, gosh...! Shonen Exodioz here sure doesn't understand.]
It makes things much easier. Simple day-to-day things mostly, but it's still nice to have around. [Nodding! He's certainly gotten used to it, despite being from a time long before anything even remotely close to being this advanced was invented.
As for the question:] Oh— the same, I think. Fifteen! [yes... entirely 15 on every planet...]

My, I wonder what sorts of unusual standards they must keep. [He shakes his head lightly.]
So that leaves me to act as your knight in shining armor? I'm afraid that it's a role which I am quite unaccustomed to.

Ah, I see. Any other thoughts to share?
Is that so? Why don't you start with using your own definition of interesting? Perhaps I may be able to derive something from it.
[Friendship is just an awkward bond of sorts...]
So it's likely that everyone here has become overly reliant on it. Understood. [He knows all too well the mentality most people will take, although luckily this doesn't seem to be quite the same as The Score.]
Fifteen, you say? [He smiles wryly.] Then in my world's time, you would currently be about... seven and a half.

Yeah. The name's Cliff, Mister Duke. We don't need anymore guys sounding like teenagers here.
[He sure isn't wrong about that, and Oz looks a little sheepish for a second...]
Well, a lot of people definitely use theirs daily... [Even he does, and he's from Ye Olde times. He also adapts to situations like a dang maniac though, so learning how to use the CereVice and coming to appreciate it was bound to happen sooner or later.
But wait a second--]
Seven! [THE HALF DOESN'T EVEN COUNT.] What— seven?! Are people still presented to society then, or do they have to wait until they would be thirty in my world's time? [Is that even a thing that happens in other worlds?? He just doesn't know.]

Regardless of whether or not I'm enjoying it, I do have the responsibility as hostess to ensure everyone else does.
[She says as she eats cheesecake with an air of finality.
As much as of an air as someone can have when eating cheesecake anyway.]

Ah, I see. [He smirks as he adjusts his glasses.]
Yes, I certainly can't doubt your identity now. There's only one Natalia who would make a substantial responsibility out of her own birthday.

I suppose that I might be. The wine isn't quite up to par, but it's not the worst way to spend one's first evening in an alien world.
Congratulations. Of course, it doesn't quite come anywhere near close to the quality of a Malkuth ball, but it's clear that you must have done your best.
Perhaps it's your consideration that's biased.
[He tsks.]
For a great hostess, you certainly seem intent on not letting me have my fun. It's a shame, Natalia.

The emperor is usually too preoccupied with his own antics to act as my keeper in such times, Natalia.
