[ some time after the trial, jay and jake will lovingly reunite in their room.

jay, to the surprise of no one, looks both agitated and tired. that sure was the longest trial of his damn life. ]

At least we caught someone again.

Jake, I wouldn't be having this conversation with you at all if I didn't like you. You gave me a birthday.

[ that seems like such a small, nonsense thing, but it made him happy. ]

We'll figure things out.

[Jay I hope you're ready for this because Jake starts tearing up, smiling. His emotions have been pretty high so it's such a relief.]

Yep! That's your birthday. You can be an Alpha Kid like me and my friends and you're even the same age as us, too, so please don't let me ruin another friendship.

[ what the hell is an alpha kid

but jay (thankfully) doesn't ask about it this time. he's not the best at comfort, but he will place a hand on jake's shoulder before dropping it. ]

I've had a lot worse arguments with my... friends [ it's odd calling them that out loud. ] back home. And we were fine. So you did not ruin another friendship. You actually might have just made this one a little stronger.
