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?

People lurking around the edges of things tended to get Glitch's attention, especially when they were in his age bracket because so, so many people in the village appeared to be...not. Plus, hey, he needed to meet people.

"Hi!" he said with a wide smile and a vague little wave. Friendly! Nice! Yay! "Name's Glitch and...um. What is going on?"

He likes parties and festiveness, he's just...a little bemused.

Liz took note of the man walking towards her... and pointedly ignored whatever it was on the top of his head. She didn't want to know and wasn't sure she could deal with whatever crack answer asking might get her.

"Sheriff Forbes," she answered, more used to her actual title than people calling her by her actual name. Someday she might become more used to other people knowing her name and perhaps even calling her 'Liz,' but for now she stuck with what she knew. "It's a New Years' party as far as I can tell. I heard there might be fireworks later if you're interested."

It was a little unfortunate that Liz wasn't much of a small talk person... or talk in general. She'd never socialized well.

oh hey a tag /still the worst

Sheriff? Oh dear. Glitch's long experience with (wrongfully) being on all the wrong sides of authority figures made him both wary and...want to make a good first impression. He was a gentleman headcase after all, not some common criminal.

So he inclined his head politely to Liz and tried his best not to fidget.

"Thank you, Sheriff," he said graciously. New Year's...that's probably like Annual's End, right? "I hope there are fireworks, I...I don't remember the last time I saw any."

noooope i'm the worst.

Finally, someone who'll call her Sheriff instead of Miss or something equally insulting. She glanced at the man with a closed look that held a tinge of curiosity to it before she looked back around at the party and shifted her weight.

"There should be. At least, there will be if they're going to keep it similar to Earth's traditions." But of course she didn't know if they would or not. She knew next to nothing about this place and she didn't like it. Her eyes looked over the man again. "Have you been here long?"
