That's right, and...

[ A beat. She's thinking... Were there chocobos. Horses. Chocohorses. ]

Not in attendance, no. Any and all riding animals were shown outside, rather than inside, should any be gifted. [ ...ahaha. ] There was quite a lot of business talk as well—it was quite dull. I'll never have a need for such a thing, so I used to simply nod and find somehow to excuse myself from the conversation. Eventually, I started taking books to socials, and after doing the required introductions and formalities and so on, so forth, I'd go outside and read until I was needed for this or that.

[ Not that she could do that on her birthday, but... ]

For the record, I've never gotten a horse or a chocobo or anything like that as a birthday gift. I did get a bird once, however. She was a little parakeet, and I named her Pollyanna... I wasn't allowed to keep her when I moved though.
