[ He knows it's not just "some noise." But he's unwilling to admit it! He'll deny it no matter how often Hiyori brings it up, especially since it's his birthday.

But the House seems to have other ideas.

It's almost as if a headache is forming, a noise that can't be stopped rumbling from the back of his throat. He won't live this birthday down, but at least the pastry is saved this time. ]

... geez, you can't seriously think that.

[ He rubs at his temple as he grumbles. Yep, a headache is forming! Hiyori's loud, booming voice isn't helping the situation, as more heads turn to stare. If only Ohii-san's voice had a volume control, or if he could read the room or read into the glare Jun was giving him. ]

What the hell are ya talking 'bout? I just said I wasn’t feeling like Mary! You're making some kinda jab at me being just like some dog...

[ Really, it is weird for him! And it's safe to say he hasn't noticed any other doglike anything, just as he said!! ]
