Not like she doesn't know what Anna is like in the first place! ] But my birthday isn't until next summer, so if you do want a dumb joke you can use with Kainé for pretty much the rest of the year until then..

[ Be her guest, Anna. Especially since Ange won't have to witness the corniness herself and get all flustered about it. ]
