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?

[Sokka can appreciate a pun as much as the next guy. Assuming the next guy is a clown or something. So he smirks at the little joke there.]

Well, you know, I can't let all the firework people have all the fun.

[starfishlovesyou]

[not making fun of it, no no no. you know what's fun this time of year? trans-atlantic flights.]

Yes, it's very horrible when bullies bully people. But Kotomi-san! As far as Fuuko is aware there are no bullies here in Luceti. Just a bunch of weird people, but not bullies!

[at least there aren't any weird bullies. that would be all sorts of terrible.]

[penetrated]

I think he's moved on to ice skating at this point! ... I'm really interested to see if it'll work.

[Then again, he's already taught him how to paint so...]

[seakingbait]

[Keimi smiles warmly, releasing the hug. She's long gotten used to Robert's nervousness. To her, it's just him being him.]

Mhm. I think the heat might pop the bubble. And that would be really bad.

no. kill witches, get bitches!!

[catches]

[( u n s u r e )

Okay, chasing a little girl will do terrible things to his cred so... SWAMPERT, GET OUT HERE. CATCH THAT GAL!!!]

[seakingbait]

Wow. [That's like seeing a unicorn, or a mermaid or something.]

I'll... just finish this one. I don't think I need much more than that, Miyabi-chin.

[She chuckles nervously, hoping to hide her increasing drunkenness.]

[musubi]

[Aaaand reaching over to bap Richard very lightly on the back of the head.]

[seakingbait]

[Keimi nods, smiling softly before slowly squirming into a comfortable position.]

You too... [Yawn.] Daisy-chin.

[She closes her eyes again. There is nowhere in the world she would rather be, but safe in the warmth of Daisy's arms.]

[ledbythewind]

[Something flashes in Richard's eyes, and before he's even aware of it, his arm snaps up to grab Isamu's wrist in a grip that isn't exactly gentle.

Old habits of being jumpy die hard, especially when he's already on edge.]

[the_brightest_sun]

[Grabbing that hand instantly.]

Can I have a bit of everything?

[And then probably repeat.]

[crisisrain]

Well, what's he like? It's kinda hard ta track people down with just a name.

[breaks_destiny]

Your surprise is irrelevant, you're biased.

[Chuckling a bit.]

I actually don't like burgers... like legitly..

[repudiate]

[ gosh I'll app rin here too just so you can redirect your tsundere jokes somewhere else!! ]

Fireworks, titles and giant blue Godzilla-like creatures. I'll make sure to never forget it.

[repudiate]

I don't know. A while now. [ she shrugs - Ange's not really the type to take note of the time, she could have been up here for hours now and she would barely notice, probably. ] ... But not before the fireworks started.

I'm probably going home later, though.

[ need to wish boyfriend a happy new year, after all.. ]

[hiken_ace]

[He nods.] They're at Fishman Island. Or...some of them, I guess. Not all of them remember being there.

[musubi]

[Isamu doesn't do anything, just sits patiently while Richard holds his wrist.]

[ledbythewind]

[And Richard just freezes, unmoving, staring at Isamu almost as if he's challenging him. There's obviously an internal struggle going on here, though he's doing his best to keep his face neutral...

... until at last he releases his grip and looks away, his voice cold.]

Leave me alone.

[lostinmyway]

Oh. Well, he's tall. [And when Grune describes someone like that....] And he has blond hair. It's very long and curly.

[Happy smile!] And he has pretty blue eyes.

[This is probably the most detailled, useful description Grune has ever given. That should tell you something.]

[fierybluebird]

So I recall. Ah... I'm just glad it's in good shape. Probably Jinbei's doing.

[menial]

I can't support cheating, Yotsuba. Also, I don't usually tell stories to people who are already asleep as evidenced by snoring.

[menial]

[he'll let her do that in privacy, then, standing back and waiting for her, though his eyes are frequently watching her. He, too, is lost in thought as he considers her, looking like a different girl from behind with her longer hair and currently peaceful demeanor.]

[hiken_ace]

....why wouldn't it be?

[Bro you confuse him AND LET'S NOT TELL HIM YOUR DAD IS DEAD, OKAY, OKAY.]

[touchofrogue]

[Except for when you really needed me, right, Kurt? She knows, she knows what she lost over that.

It's a pretty lie, but when it comes down to it... lies aren't what she wants.]

Do you really? Think that, I mean?

[folklorist]

Yes perhaps it is. And with all the parties we've been having recently I'm sure they could all use your expertise on such things. To make it a bit more...upbeat. [ A smile and a laugh. ]

It's also the company that helps in those regards. Did you use to watch them back home? The fireworks I mean?

[folklorist]

No, it doesn't. Though they're surprisingly lax when it comes to Christmas and this whole season in general. Not-not that, that's a bad thing not at all. Rather grateful for it, really.

[ A pause. ] It makes you wonder if they're too busy off celebrating their own holidays.
