Out with the old....

[sundead]

Who: Everyone
What: New Year's.
When: Dec. 31st, New Year's Eve, to Jan 1st, New Year's Day.
Where: Everywhere
Summary: It's New Year's, and the people of Luceti have a lot to reflect upon, and to look forward to. And on a more meta level, new journal names.
Rating: We'll see...

New Year's brings images of crowds, and songs, and fireworks; staying up til midnight and watching balls or bells being rung. But Luceti is a different time and place. Whether you're partying with friends or watching the sunrise, what are you doing today?

It is...but I guess it's ok, for tonight. [And he was just here to try and find someone that dragged him here, or a few people.]

...Actually, does anyone here even know what year it is?

[markofthewise]

[... oh. That's lovely. This is why they should keep the alcohol out of the restaurants! He forces a smile and walks on over.]

... hey, Keimi. Happy new years.

[fallenambitions]

[Ehhh family...]

Why temples? For a sort of tribute?

[bamfing]

[DON'T BE SO SOLEMN, ROGUE. Well, it's fireworks. So he's keeping this light.]

We're also pretty good at fetching stuff. Thirsty?

[He's planning on grabbing himself a soda.]

more like it was beautiful

[rollypolyclover]

[D8 SEE. RUTHLESS. GOSH.]

Ohhh, right. So you've got to see them as best you can now or you have to wait a whooole year!

[etudes]

[ for another moment she stares at him blankly, but then she looks up at the sky for a moment.. and then back to her book immediately. ]

I saw them now. [ as if just that is enough. ]

[etudes]

[ she'll take a tiny sammich since sailor moon taught me that sandwiches are convenient since you can eat them while you read!! gosh, those informative magical girl series. don't mind her as she nibbles on it. ]

I.. like the more quiet kind of fireworks. The ones that make pretty figures in the sky, but aren't too loud.

[etudes]

[ she turns her head, looking to the left, then the right a little before looking back at him. ]

... I don't see anyone we know..

[repudiate]

[ for a moment she just stares, since.. well, it's so like him to give such a serious answer to something she's just deadpanning over. ]

Good to see you at least aren't planning on becoming a criminal anytime soon, Kamijou-san. Even if you look up girls' skirts.

[touchofrogue]

[...sigh.]

Don't suppose Ororo will let the 'no minors drinking' rule pass on New Years, do you?

[...yeah, she figures that's a no before he even says is. And it's not worth the fight right now.]

Pepsi's good.

[bamfing]

[Kurt is far from being a minor back in Germany. And Luceti isn't America! But. He leaves that unsaid.]

One Pepsi coming up.

[He bamfs away. A few seconds later, she'll have a nice cold pepsi and he'll have a nice cold mountain dew, because that's how he rolls.]

hey henru let's thread more

[catches]

[Why hello little girl--

okay no, Brendan just stumbles on Yotsuba... isn't this the kid from that one time with the wimpy guy? And the tug-of-war?]

Hey, kid! You sure it's not your bedtime?

[catches]

[Beldum, meanwhile, fixes the pair of them with what's probably supposed to be an inquistive look... before losing interest and turning to watch the festivities.

Curse that Lax nature, it's making him look bad!] You bet! The fireworks are a nice touch. You?

[catches]

[desu]

A- [He's about to open his mouth to say 'Of course not!'

Then he remembers Gyarados.

And that one time Beldum nearly demolished a house...] Not... intentionally?

[inkdrops]

[Oh, she recognizes that voice as well. Miyabi stands to greet Haruhi, in her larger form...though the Mallet is probably around the area, bouncing around happily after watching the fire works. She was going to go inside her house after watching the night for another hour or two.]

And it's me, Miya. I didn't expect anyone to come here tonight. [After a moment, a small flame bursts to life in the girl's hand - the most she can do on her own with just Eferin's filial magic.] Did you enjoy the fireworks?

[inkdrops]

[Well, considering Miyabi probably can't hear anything over the blast of the fireworks, and her sight in the dark is on par with being almost completely blind, the hug is indeed a surprise. Thank goodness for Keimi speaking, lest Miyabi may have accidentally attacked her.]

Keimi! [She laughs, and returns the hug with great enthusiasm.] Ehehe, I'm glad you like them! I didn't know if anyone else was going to fire any, so I decided to some here, on this side of the village! The new year for me isn't for another month, but I wanted everyone to enjoy these!

[happyends]

[ I'm oddly fascinated by this show now.. ]

A-- ah, no, that's not it..! [ cue Madoka quickly waving her hands around since noo please don't think that Ayumu she didn't want to be ruuude.. ] You didn't look pathetic at all, I-I'm sorry!

> star telling me I have a filthy mind > jelles laughing alone with burgers

[happyends]

Hmm, nice to meet you as well.

[ oh, she should probably return the honorifics too.. ]

Kuronuma-kun, are you out alone..?

depends on how you beg, I guess....

[happyends]

[ what are you turning it for, is it some brainwash device's antenna, is that what this is about.. ]

Thank you, Fuuko-chan! Although.. I have to say it's a little sad no other party hat will look this good on me anymore in my life now..

BEAUTIFULLY HIDEOUS?

[lunas]

That's right! And the best place to watch fireworks is as high up as possible!

[ ... wait.. looking down at Yotsuba.. ]

Um.. you're pretty small, aren't you, Yotsuba-chan?

[sundead]

[yes be one of us jelle...

...anyway, now he's already ruining the conversation. Great.]

I was just joking, don't worry.

[makeitquick]

[Wow she talks a lot. But hard? This is liquid- oh. she means like... okay. Melaka sniffs it again before taking another little sip. She has no idea how she is supposed to hold this... cup? Bowl? Whatever it is. Sob. But she can feel it already. Jeez, she wasn't kidding]

Melaka Fray. I get out sometimes.

OH MY GOD THAT PICTURE I GIVE UP SCREAMS

[repudiate]

Well, it's debatable whether Godzilla did it intentionally or not too.

[ not that this discussion has any substance. ]

What's your name?

[happyends]

[ 'us' would be you and who else..... ]

O.. okay, if you're sure.. [ keep breathing, Madoka. ] I just wanted to make sure I hadn't offended you, since that would be the opposite of what I wanted..

[godbent]

Oooh, was that you?! They looked pretty good!

[But sniff. Damn cold. But yes, they did look impressive. She made her way here to count for a Shrine Visit, but... all the same, that was a nice bonus]
