How are you holding up?


Between Diwali and Guy Fawkes Night being celebrated by the castle, I'm starting to wonder if it'll keep up the variety and do something fancy for Chanukah or some other holiday that's generally not celebrated in Paradisa. At least the commercialization of Christmas is not as bad here.

[ pause. ]

It was around this time the turtledoves appeared, wasn't it? Think it'll skip over that "tradition" entirely this year?

I don't even think I've seen an actual turtledove, myself.

Here or back home?

[worldweary-wolf.livejournal.com]

Either. It's just something you hear about in the song, I never looked it up.

What's the tradition with turtledoves?

[soldarius.livejournal.com]

Forces you to kiss other people.

Heading out with Brock to try and track the little psycho down. Doubt I'll actually find him, but still, it's better than sitting around talking. [Pause] But that's more what I'm doing, huh?

I'm okay. Getting annoyed at the lack of action in this place.

[Another pause] What's Chanukah?

Which prisoner was it that escaped? [ IF IT'S DENT SHE WOULD COME WITH SO FAST. ] And I agree; all the talk isn't getting us anywhere. Do you have any clue where he went?

I'm glad to hear you're alright.

Jewish holiday. The history is the Maccabees rebelled against Antiochus IV Epiphanes and the temple was purified. There was only enough oil one day to burn, yet it burned for eight days. It was a miracle.

[Maybe this is something she should know. Because she's been here long enough by now to know that these things sound ominous. (Even if she probably really doesn't want to know.]

An unusual tradition.

[soldarius.livejournal.com]

Skeevy, if you ask me.

Now that sounds like a fun tradition.

Until you're kissing someone you really don't want to.

This place has traditions?

[soldarius.livejournal.com]

Unfortunate ones.
