"Mom... I thought you kept your Pyro in check with, what... twenty years of experience?" Yuuki and Rachael both facepalmed at the very harsh scent of the burnt cake that was sitting on the counter like a mockery of a trophy.

"Y'know, believe it or not, I tried to make that. I didn't buy it." Rize had expected the girls to give her a hard time about her disaster attempt to make their birthday cake. "And yes, I did have to snuff out the fucker when it ignited."

"Have you even cooked in your whole life?"

"... No." Rize averted her gaze, clearly embarrassed. "You do know that I'm like Mishka, right? Born a Ghoul, unlike your father, Alice, Kaneki and Sere."

"So are we. We still took classes." Yuuki continued, indicating Rachael, who was stifling her giggles. "Doesn't mean we're gonna let this one slide anytime soon."

"That's why I'm here~!" Natasha commented from the table around the corner of the L shaped kitchen. "New one's gonna be finished in about 15 minutes."

"You gave Mom an earful about the cake too, Natasha?" Yuuki asked, a knowing expression on her face as the buxom redhead came around the corner with a smirk on her face.

"Oh absolutely, dear. I was tempted to just keep the ruined one as the actual cake for the night, but I think since it's your 18th, you should have a real cake. Or you could have both... I mean, it's your birthday."

"Sorry mom, you done goofed this one." Rachael snickered, which earned a flaming middle finger from Rize as she sipped some coffee.

"So tell me... How does it feel to be legally an adult?" Tobias smirked as his daughters and human friends enjoyed the excellently baked birthday cake that Natasha made. The Ghouls, himself included, however, were enjoying their usual human flesh.

"Feels like it's the fourth of November." Yuuki replied with a cheekful of cake. "Guess it hasn't really sunk in yet."

"Means we're allowed to legitimately go onto porn sites, and we're allowed to do pretty much whatever we want on our streams." Rachael smirked.

"Hey, I have a harem, no porn sites for me." Yuuki pointed at herself with her thumb. "And you have twin German brothers all for yourself, right boys?" She tilted her head slightly towards the eldest and youngest of Wesker's sons seated on the floor beside the couch.

"I mean, you two aren't the only twins that have eyes for each other..." Zen's eyes twinkled teasingly, earning gasps of surprise and laughter from everyone, since the sisters were actually infamous for their own incest.

"Oh my god I get my own personal yaoi show whenever I want!" Rachael was perhaps expectantly excited about the claim.

"Now boys... don't take it too far, she can only handle so much excitement." Yuuki laughed at the excited flush all over Rachael's face. "And besides, you two had her all day. Let me have a turn!"

"And you just said she can only handle so much excitement..." Odin chuckled.

"I can handle her and her shenanigans. And a certain purple sex toy..." Rachael nudged Yuuki's arm with a smirk. "And it's no far stretch to say it's also gonna see some action in the very near future too."

"Not if I have anything to say about it." Yuuki countered the nudge with one of her own. "I might have something else planned for you and me, after that stream we've got planned as soon as we're done with cake."

"You're streaming? tonight?" Rize raised an eyebrow curiously.

"We're already plastered all over the internet today because it's our birthday. Might as well do it our damn self." Yuuki pointed at her nearby phone on the coffee table. "Besides, I may or may not have impulsively bought us a new game I found on sale..."

"Something tells me I should be keeping an eye on you two for this stream..." Tobias' Tyrant Eye's eyebrow arched particularly high at the tone his oldest daughter had just used. "What game?"

"Not telling! It's a surprise!" Yuuki smiled knowingly, then her free hand shot out to snatch her phone as it started to levitate into the air, catching it in a flash. "HEY!"

"I know what game it is~!" Motoko and Stella had been there when Yuuki bought it with her phone's mobile Steam app, so Stella chuckled at the antics. "And I think I might head home early so I can settle myself in for the show ahead of time."

"I set it to start downloading when I bought it, so it should be almost done by now..." Yuuki checked the Steam app on her phone with one hand. "You've got 12 minutes before it starts installing. And knowing Bertha and Max, it'll be done in about 20 more minutes after that."

"So we can stay for another fifteen minutes, sweet! More cake please!" Stella scooped up her empty plate and moved to get herself another piece. "Hun, you too?"

"If there's enough, sure." Motoko smiled slightly as she passed over her plate as well. "So, girls, I do have to ask something that recently came to my attention about the site."

"Oh, you mean when someone tried to hack us and it locked itself down to boot the fucker out?" Rachael asked, since that had indeed happened earlier that week during the first few minutes of a stream while they were still greeting everyone and talking about the planned structure of the stream.

"I designed it to do that if someone, including myself, managed to get past the six defense barriers. So if it's alright, could I do some maintenance on the site to make sure nothing malicious got through the attack barrier layer?"

"Sure thing... did you happen to figure out who did it?" Yuuki asked, and that also happened to get Tobias' attention.

"Your father and I already tracked them down." Motoko smirked knowingly. "It's up to him about what to do after all that's said and done."

"Are they local?"

"Yes." Tobias nodded once.

"Are they Syndicate?"

"Nope."

"Are they hot?"

"Unfortunately not." Motoko shook her head.

"We'll go in the morning." Yuuki and Rachael shared a glance before nodding in agreement at the sudden idea they both had. "But now... video games await!" They both were now donw eating their cake and held up their empty plates before spinning on their heels to saunter into the kitchen to put the plates away. On the way back out they both grabbed a blood bag and a bottle of jaegermeister before heading upstairs to begin the preparations to livestream.

"Time to wrap up and head out." Stella glanced longingly at her cake, but knew she wouldn't have to worry about it going to waste. "See you guys in the chat when we get home."

While everyone was doing the last of the wandering and chatter, Sheva wandered upstairs with a slight smile tugging at her lips as she knocked on the twins' door and poked her head inside.

"Sup Sheva?" Yuuki noticed her smiling at them and seemed slightly suspicious.

"Rico wanted to tell you something himself." Sheva pointed at the big TV on the wall that they used for a shared monitor. "Alright, go for it big guy."

With that, the TV turned on by itself, showing Rico's full height from what appeared to be a drone hovering inside of his hangar bay, and he turned his attention to the camera as he held one hand up and curled his middle and ring fingers to do the metal horns gesture that the twins were well known to use.

"Happy birthday ladies. I apologize for the lateness, I wasn't able to isolate a signal for a device capable of receiving this particular file format."

"Fuckin' eh!" Yuuki returned the metal horns with vigour. "Thanks big guy!" Both sisters thanked the mech at the same time.
