[Leo had been plotting for days. Jason's birthday was coming up, and admitting he wasn't the best with baking, he reached out to Lyria for help. He wanted to do something special for his friend's 17th birthday, and what else said special but a home made cake?
With Lyria's assistance, the cake was made, decorated, and iced with the phrase "HAPPY BIRTHDAY JAYSON!" A gift was acquired as well, wrapped haphazardly and stuffed in a paper bag. Knowing Jason wouldn't want a huge party or anything wild and crazy, he instead just storms up to Jason and Nico's apartment, and bangs on the door to be let inside. While it may not be Leo's definition of party, he was still going to barge in and make sure Jason had a good time.]
YOOOOOO birthday boy!! I know you're awake!! Let me in, or I'll start singing camp fire songs!
[It's kinda weird to think too much about birthdays in a place like this. Like, does it even count if you eventually wake up at the same time before you were ever here? And the day he woke up here wasn't even the same date in the real world, so it chronologically hasn't been a year from his perspective since his last birthday...
Yeah. Weird. He wasn't gonna take it too seriously. Jason's birthday gift to himself was just sleeping for once.
It was, anyway, until someone started banging on the door. Curse his reputation as an early riser. Growing up Roman truly fucked him up.
It takes a minute or two, but Jason eventually opens the door still in his pajama pants.]
You know I'm not the only person that lives here, right?
[LISTEN, it's not Leo's fault Jason is notoriously on a strict schedule and is very used to being up early with the sun, so of course Leo's going to just assume Jason's awake. When the door finally swings open, and the biggest of grins crosses Leo's face.]
Yeah, but does Nico even sleep? I've never seen it happen. [HE'S JOKING OF COURSE, but Nico still doesn't sleep a lot. Not that Leo can be talking, he can't remember how long he's actually been awake either. But the new and improved body he built for Festus was on it's finishing touches!!
Anyway, he's just gonna push past Jason into the apartment and make himself at home, yep!]
[Part of Jason wants to protest that joke, but he hesitates, second-guessing whether it'd be cool to say anything either way about Nico's sleeping habits, and by the Hurricane Leo is already blowing through. Ok then.]
I won't be held responsible if you annoy him.
[He shrugs, all too used to Leo's ways, and shuts then door behind him before following his friend.]
It's pretty early. Were you planning breakfast in bed or something?
I annoy everyone, that's my special talent. [But that doesn't mean Leo won't hide behind Jason if he pisses off Nico too much. He's still trying to find the line between mildly annoying Nico and setting him off on a war path.]
Is it early? Oh, my b. [What is looking at a clock. He was busy working and saw the sun up so he figured it was safe to come by. Whoops. Leo raises his eyebrow at Jason, though, as he set the cake box and gift bag on a nearby table.]
[Honestly, Leo is relieved Jason was fine with cake. While he absolutely would have thrown something together for his best bro, the cake was already made and ready to go and a lot easier of the options.]
Perfectamundo! [Which means he'll need to grab plates and forks and a big knife, but first! He grabs the gift bag again, holding it out to Jason.]
Gift first, then you'll get some of the most amazing cake ever, made by yours truly. [WITH LYRIA'S HELP but he's not one for baking so let him brag on himself for a minute. Shocking, right? But the gift is VERY important!!! They joke about it so much, Leo managed to get a hold of a baseball cap with a target symbol on the front. Because he couldn't resist.]
[Leo's already laughing as his joke before Jason even reacts, and it only gets worse once Jason actually sees the gift. He holds his stomach as he cackles, before wiping tears from his eyes.]
Isn't it great??
[if you want to kill him, Jason, you'd have every right.]

Do you want breakfast in bed, dude?
no subject
[He probably wouldn't have minded it. But that sure looks like a cake box and he admittedly has a sweet tooth, so he relaxes.]
I'll settle for cake for breakfast.

No! What? Why on earth would you say that?

C'mon, you know you love it! And it's been, what? Four, five months since you've gotten hit in the head?

[Honestly, demigod sturdiness is probably the only reason he hasn't died of a traumatic brain injury.]

[Leo just shrugs. SORRY JASON he has to be an ass and tease you. Just means he loves you, bro.]
