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?

[Vincent is on the fringe of the main celebration for the night, but he is around. More or less. He always likes to keep an eye out in case anything... happens. A new year is a time for something disastrous to befall them after all. But so far all is well... When it comes time for the actual moment of the year changing over he'll be standing alone with arms folded, quietly observing.]

[It takes Grune a little while to notice him, since she isn't exactly the most observant of people, but at some point during the evening, she'll definitely be wandering over.]

Hello, Vincent! Are you having a nice time?

[thenightmarebegins]

[Vincent glances over at the familiar voice.]

Grune... [Well, he's not having a bad time so it qualifies right?] I suppose I could consider it to be.

I'm assuming they're not actually there atm. XD;;

[lostinmyway]

Have you been to the party yet?

that's good with me!

[thenightmarebegins]

I've been... around the area.

[...and hovering in the distance qualifies in THAT case. In Vincent-world.]

[lostinmyway]

You should come visit! Ginia is playing some very nice songs on the piano and there are lots of people to talk to.

[thenightmarebegins]

[Talk. Vincent does not look certain of that.]

I probably wouldn't stay very long...

[lostinmyway]

That's all right. I'm sure everyone will be happy to see you while you're there.

[thenightmarebegins]

[...well... right. In this instance Vincent has learned that if you go along and then quietly sneak away later, there tends to be less fussing and pestering.]

...a very short time...

[lostinmyway]

[She gives him a curious look.]

Oh, do you need to go somewhere?

[thenightmarebegins]

Well...

[It's not like he can exactly make up any excuses or anything.]

..I don't.

[lostinmyway]

Well, then, we can have a nice time together at the party. Let's go!

[And she reaches out with the intent to take his hand. WHAT DO, VINCENT.]

[thenightmarebegins]

[Stare blankly for the moment.]

[lostinmyway]

[Tug, tug!

Come on, Vincent, we're going to miss the party.]

[thenightmarebegins]

[Sigh, all right, very well, he'll move along with you.]

[lostinmyway]

[Without the slightest bit of hesitation, Grune tries to lace her fingers through his.]

I wonder if some of your other friends are going to be at the party.

[thenightmarebegins]

I wouldn't know.

[It's not like he thought to ask anyone... or go at all, at first.]

[lostinmyway]

Well, then, we're going to find out!

[thenightmarebegins]

Are we...?

[lostinmyway]

Oh, yes. We'll be at the party soon, so then we can see if your friends are there.

[thenightmarebegins]

[He sighs, but nods- he'll look around and ensure that nothing is amuiss or anything.]

[lostinmyway]

Are you going to look at the fireworks later?

[thenightmarebegins]

I was going to watch them.

[...From afar. Hidden somewhere alone.]

[lostinmyway]

Oh, then we should watch them together!

[thenightmarebegins]

You have no other plans?

[He'd assume she'd go off to be with other people.]
