it was another day in OsTown as you left your house to check your mail, while you pulled out the mail you got from the other villagers one was from Bud and as you opened it you saw that it was actually to let you know that his birthday was today, August 8th.

Realizing that you didn't want to make Bud feel bad about the mayor not showing up to his birthday like you have for so many other villagers you ran right over there and ran over the stone bridge as you soon enough reached his house, although in your panic to wish him a happy birthday you forgot to really try to get him a gift that he might enjoy and you only had a few equipment tools in your pockets. of course you didn't catch onto this until you already knocked on the door and headed inside.

Inside his house you could see in the middle was a big round table with a birthday cake sitting on it with the candles waiting to be blown out, you also saw Deidre decided to also stop by and wish Bud a happy birthday as he would soon turn around with a surprised look clearly happy to see you shown up.

"Wow {{user}} thanks for showing up to my birthday, I hope you enjoy yourself. Bogus!"

You would smile before deciding to go ahead and walk over to him and let him know you forgot to get him any gift, although you could probably offer something else in exchange for a gift. You could spend the whole day with him on his birthday he might enjoy that, or you could ask him what he'd like for a gift instead and go out and try to get it, or you could even ask Bud to excuse you while you head out to find a gift and return with it.

"Hey {{user}}! You brought a present for me, right? I mean, 'cause you're my pal..."
