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?

[Aaand Fuuko's book is full of starfish. But anyway.]

Have the two of you had anything to eat yet? Fuuko has found there to be lots of food around if you're both hungry.

[If he won't accept a party hat then maybe he'll accept some food instead!]

[risingwinds]

[Ven shakes his head and looks down at his stomach for a second. Rrrrumble.

Ehehe...]

Actually, we just got here.

[personafalsify]

[ ... Yes. Yes he will accept the food.

But that doesn't mean he's not rolling his eyes at Ven's stomach there. ]

Yeah. Let's get some food in you before you starve, there.

[starfishlovesyou]

[Chuckling at Ven and turning off to lead the way over to a nice big spread of food, laid out just for the party.]

We wouldn't that, not after just arriving. Or any time really, starving is very bad no matter when or where! [So lets try this friend thing again.] Is there anything you like which Fuuko can get for you, Kohan-san? Ven-san?

[risingwinds]

[And, of course, Ven'll follow right up to the food table, looking things over.]

Well, I'm not too picky! What about you, Kohan?

[personafalsify]

[ Rep looks over the whole thing as well. ] ... I'm fine with anything.

[ He's still working on sorting out that whole "food preferences" thing. Though he tentatively reaches for some chips. ]

[starfishlovesyou]

Fuuko can get those for you, don't worry!

[Quickly reaching for the bowl of chips and holding it out. So she might be trying a little too hard to make friends. Just a bit.]

Take as many as you like, there's plenty enough for everyone.

[risingwinds]

Thanks, Fuuko!

[Ven'll help himself to some of the chips as well. He'll also take a moment to examine the other goodies. ]

[personafalsify]

Uh... okay... [ You're getting a weird look for that Fuuko, but fine, he'll eat the chips anyway.

And he'll sort of lean over towards Ven and lower his voice a bit here. ]

Is she always like this?

[starfishlovesyou]

[Great success, they both took some. Putting the bowl back and looking up and down the table for other things to offer them...

Cupcakes. Cupcakes are well loved and are failsafe! Moving down the table to go grab that plate of cupcakes!]

[risingwinds]

Thanks again, Fuuko.

[Ven does like cupcakes. He'll go ahead and take one, but...]

But if there's anything you want, go ahead and help yourself! Or maybe I could help you.

[There he goes, being a sap again.]

[personafalsify]

... I'll take that as a "yes". [ Sigh why do you do this to him, Ven. But he will have a cupcake too, because being polite and also maybe they are tasty?

... Kind of tasty, but these are possibly a little too sweet. At least, he's pretty sure that's sweet. Cupcakes are supposed to be sweet. ]

[starfishlovesyou]

[Taking a cupcake for herself and returning the rest of the cupcakes to where they were.]

Don't worry, Fuuko is okay and has already ate a little tonight. There's a lot of choice so it's good not to fill up too quickly.

[risingwinds]

Yep! Even if cupcakes and chips are tasty, I'm sure there's a lot more to try out.

[Of course, that isn't stopping Ven from mowing down. Silly dork.]

[personafalsify]

Unless you've got a huge stomach, at that rate you'll be full in no time. [ /ROLLEYES Ven you are such a dork

Meanwhile Rep will be over here nibbling at his cupcake. ]

[starfishlovesyou]

Even if you have a big stomach please pace yourselves, if you ended up with a stomach ache then that would be very horrible!

[Ohm nom nom delicious cupcake and chips.]

[risingwinds]

[Time to nudge the grumpy replica with an elbow.]

Hey, I can pace myself!

[He definitely doesn't wanna get sick!]

[personafalsify]

I'll believe it when I see it. [ /takes another bite of his cupcake. ]

[starfishlovesyou]

[It's hard to help giggling a little at their display.]

Ven-san seems to be doing alright for now! If he starts to slow down and he stops eating then you can say you told him so, Kohan-san.

[risingwinds]

You'll see! I'll leave a bunch of room.

[...Is this seriously turning into a challenge?

It might just be.]

[personafalsify]

[ Oh we like a challenge. ]

And when I get to say "I told you so," Fuuko can back me up.

[starfishlovesyou]

Sorry Ven-san, but if it gets to that point then Fuuko will have to side with Kohan-san on this one.

[So basically she's going to go with whoever comes out better in this 'challenge'.]

But Fuuko has faith that you'll be able to eat plenty and still have room for more Ven-san!

[risingwinds]

[Gosh, this is such a silly challenge. It's like the opposite of an eating contest? Or something. Either way, Ven can't help but laugh.]

Well, it's all in good fun, right?

[personafalsify]

... Sure.

[ /it's on

... however that's supposed to work. ]

[starfishlovesyou]

Mmhm, of course, these sorts of things between friends are meant to be fun! [...] Though Fuuko has to wonder what it is that's going on exactly. Are there rules to this challenge?

[It's all well and good going along with whatever the aim of this but it'll be even more fun if she knew what was happening with this reverse not eating contest.]
