On the topic of birthdays...
We don't know the Original Cale Henituse's birthday, but just imagine the Henituse Family celebrating Cale's birthday. And Cale has to awkwardly play along even though he knows it isn't HIS birthday they're celebrating. While the Henituse Family is also awkward because it's been years since they got to celebrate Cale's birthday properly, but they wanted to take the chance this time now that they've gotten closer (except it's too late now). But they notice Cale's discomfort throughout the entire celebration even though he tries to hide it. Things snowball from there.
Or maybe when the day comes, Cale isn't aware that it's his body's birthday. So while everyone else is dropping hints about it being a special day, Cale is just confused about why they're acting so weird. It eventually leads the Henituse Family to misunderstand thinking Cale got so busy during or after the war that he forgot his own birthday.
(After Cale realizes, he'd also send Kim Rok Soo a gift via the God of Death. Fortunately, no churches were harmed after that conversation, but only a god's pride.)
This also works vice versa with the Original Cale Henituse in Kim Rok Soo's body. Maybe the Original Kim Rok Soo wasn't known to celebrate his birthday (with other people, or at all). So Kim Rok Soo doesn't even realize anything weird that day, except the increasing glances sent his way by his team members and other people from the company ("The team leader still went to work today even though it's his birthday…sighs"). Kim Rok Soo only finds out by the end of his shift, when he's about to go home to his niece but is stopped by someone unexpectedly giving him a small gift.
(The next time he meets with Choi Jung Soo, he asks the guy to send his birthday greetings to the man he swapped bodies with, along with a birthday card drawn by his niece. ("I don't know about over there, but I found out it was your birthday here on Earth. Happy Birthday, Cale."))
(Extra: Choi Jung Soo becomes nostalgic after remembering all his shared birthdays with Kim Rok Soo, before remembering all the birthdays Kim Rok Soo spent by himself after their deaths.)
Or, the other characters find out it was Choi Han's birthday (not knowing it's also Cale's birthday). Everyone helps to plan a birthday party, with Cale even giving Choi Han a gift during the celebration ("I wasn't able to give you a gift last time, so…Happy Birthday, Choi Han.").
Once the celebration was over, or maybe when everyone else was too busy to hear or disturb the two of them, Choi Han was the first to greet Cale a happy birthday ("…Happy birthday to you too, Cale-nim. Kim Rok Soo."). Of course, Alberu does not forget to secretly give both his instructor and his dongsaeng gifts as well, aka, "a happy birthday to the two punks who gave me headaches".
((There's also an easy solution to this entire thing: Original Cale Henituse's birthday was ALSO on November 8. Now we have 5 people sharing the same birthday.))

"What do you call a dog with no legs?"
Cale suddenly broke the silence in Alebru's office with a emotionless voice.
The redhead was lying on the sofa and did not look up from the documents with which he was helping the blonde
Alberu rised his head from his own documents, confused by the question without context.
"What?"
"Doesn’t matter what you call him, he won’t come anyway."
Cale grins when Alberu chokes and keep reading the documents calmly.

Imagine the chaos if the people in the indignity test suddenly came into the LCF world-
Dodam calling Cale 'the terrible bastard' while everyone is confused
Raon is happy knowing that even in another world, his human will always save him, just like he promised
Maybe even them fighting for Cale's attention
Both CHs look at each other warily but bond over the confusion that is known as Cale Henituse. Also, CH promises to teach indignity test CH how to become stronger to protect his new-found family. Cale is scared at this, as always
Alver laughing with a refreshed smile, while the younger him wonders if he's gone crazy when he sees how much paperwork he has.
Tiny Alver being happy when he sees that the dark elves, and them too, have been accepted by people. It only reaffirms the fact that he didn't make the wrong choice.
Baby KRS who is wary at first and sticks to CH like glue, however soon opens up with the help of the children. I can imagine Alver going 'Aigoo, why can't I have such a cute dongsaeng?'
However it's ruined when they teach baby KRS how to scam with a bright smile to get money (a critical hit to Alver)
(If you want angst then they wonder why KRS is here when he's so young, however they see how skinny he is still, his footsteps too quiet to not have been learned, the way his eyes were always looking for escapes and he hated people getting too close. The way he dissociates sometimes, just staring blankly at the wall. It's... unnerving, to say the least, to watch a child go so blank and unmoving.
It's clear that something terrible had happened, but both CH, KRS and Cale (to Alver) hold their silence, so all they can do is treat him with care.)
Tiny KRS and the children bonding.
Raon being taught by Eruhaben and Rosalyn.
If they still had the cintamani, maybe they could also dote on baby KRS and how cute he was as a kid, asking 20yr KRS why couldn't he smile at them like that and how such a cute kid turned into such a grump- (tsundere-
Them helping each other out for the future, and sharing concepts/ideas from their worlds.
Vicross having to babysit but he doesn't mind
Ron noticing the similarities between KRS and Cale and deciding to pay more attention to the two of them
Anyways, wow. This got way longer than I expected-

!!Rant ahead!! (so sorry for not putting this in earlier. I was taken by my emotions and it didn't cross my mind that others could get affected too)
Note: this is a rant about orv & tcf crossovers
Okay so I've gotten back to my tcf and orv phase and why does the crossover fanfics always revolve around cale? Don't get me wrong, I love him and all but why do most orv x tcf fics always make him so op and then make kdj and co. seem too weak compared to him (and the rest of the tcf cast). It's annoying how biased they are... Like come on, focus on Dokja too please. I can't even find a single react fic where the characters would react to orv, it's always about tcf.

𝐂𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐇𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐲𝐬𝐮𝐜𝐤𝐥𝐞 | 𝐀𝐥𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐮 𝐂𝐫𝐨𝐬𝐬𝐦𝐚𝐧.
in which alberu finds himself trying, and failing, to teach you how to play an instrument.
alberu's large, smooth hand covers yours. 'darling, that is not how you play.'
'artistic freedom allows it.' you retort.
he laughs, repositioning your hold on the instrument. 'that, it does. now, try again.'
'do i have to?'
'sweetheart, i would never make you do anything you don't want to.. but this is important. for the ball. it's orders that you have to play, and if you don't know, I'll teach you.'
you grumble but start off again. it's... atrocious. it sounds like a mish-mash of badly tuned guitar and violin with a few piano notes thrown in.
alberu winces. 'are you trying to make me go deaf?'
'haha, very funny.'
he sighs. 'what will make you play? properly, i mean?'
you perk up. 'a kiss would do it!'
alberu blinks, a bit surprised, and then smiles, 'should've said so earlier.'
he places a kiss on your temple. 'how about this: everytime you play correctly, i'll give you a kiss.'
you roll your eyes but nod, and strum your fingers along the instrument, trying to remember what alberu had patiently been repeating for the past half hour. the melody produced doesn't sound quite as bad, and you look up at him as though to say, was that better?
he merely nods his satisfaction.
you glare at him. 'no kiss.'
he laughs and then gives a small cough. 'back to the instrument.'
you jump on him, tackling him to the ground. 'alberu!'
alberu gasps, breathless, 'what?'
'you didn't keep your promise.'
'i made a promise?'
you give him a second glare and then decide to play his game. you press a kiss to the corner of his mouth, tantalizingly close to kissing him on his lips. he lets out a groan. 'why are you—'
'shut up!'
he laughs. 'you didn't play correctly.'
'yes, i did!'
'nope. it was just better.'
'what did you expect, mozart?'
'i'm pretty sure mozart played the piano, little love.'
'whatever.'
a small moment of silence, then—
alberu sits up. 'what kind of conversation did we just have?'
'one where we discussed the many ways in which ways you betrayed me.'
alberu gives a chuckle, and feeling ridiculous, you start laughing too, and once you start, it's difficult to stop. the two of you laugh until your lungs start to hurt and your throat feels raw.
he kisses you properly now, hands around you, and you lean in as well. after a few moments, he smiles. 'happy, little love?'
'very.'
'...now, the instrument —'
'alberu!'
