Out with the old....

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?

Mmm-hmm! It's great, isn't it? [A fond sigh.] It's not the same as the view of Sternbild from the Gold Stage, but it's still really nice.

You'll definitely have to show me sometime. [Hmmmm.] I don't really recall any stunning views on Naraka-- although, um, everything was a lot better to see in person rather than in a book... Garam was pretty nice looking from the temple steps though, I guess, even if there weren't a lot of people out.

[It's all a lot prettier from the top of the Tower of Dawn post-Manifest, but-- he doesn't know that yet.]

Sometimes places get more interesting when there's no one out, I think. I haven't seen it much in Sternbild, though -- it's a big city with a lot of people, and you usually have to be out way before sunrise, and I'm usually back at the apartment during that time. [Given that she's a walking taser with kung-fu capabilities, she wouldn't have much to fear from wandering around a big city by her lonesome in the middle of the night, but Natasha wouldn't allow it.]

It just looked really lonely... and a bit frightening. [Considering the reason of why it was practically empty...] Regnum also gets pretty scary at night, like something out of a horror story.
i_am_not_cute: (eh?)

[personal profile] i_am_not_cute 2012-01-09 06:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Really? How so? [Sternbild can be very different at night, but she wouldn't ever have equated it with "horror story".]

Streetlights, mostly. It just gives it the feel of being out of one, I guess... I've only been out at night a handful of times, and I usually got scared of dogs and cats knocking down cans in the alley. [Ahahaa............ He might be a wimp pleasedon'tthinklessofhim.] It was just a little spooky, I guess.

[No worries, Pao-Lin doesn't judge! This mun does though. I AM TOTALLY KIDDING, LOL]

I guess I can see that.

[She falls silent for a bit then, just enjoying the view and the company of a good friend. A chilly breeze blows through, and she shivers before putting the hood of her hoodie up and adjusting her scarf.]

Man, I wish we had tea or hot chocolate up here...

[SOBBING]

Me too. [...Oh, but that's something he could do, isn't it.] Um, if you have the necessaries, I could make us some.
i_am_not_cute: ((dragon kid) silly me)

[personal profile] i_am_not_cute 2012-01-11 04:29 am (UTC)(link)
I have some tea bags somewhere...but it'd be kind of difficult to climb up onto the roof while carrying mugs, wouldn't it? [How to make this work...] Unless I went up first and then you just passed them to me before getting back up yourself...
subsultive: (024 lift your open hand)

[personal profile] subsultive 2012-01-13 05:16 am (UTC)(link)
That sounds fine. [Um-- getting back into the room-- Ahahaaa he really hopes he doesn't slip.

(And he doesn't so that's good.)

Peeking out from the window again.]


I'll be back with some, then!

[Pao-Lin leans over the edge of the roof a bit to yell something at Luca.]

All the food-related stuff is in the middle bedroom! Just check around in the shelves there and you should be able to find the teabags. Or the hot chocolate, if you'd rather have that.
subsultive: (051 i'm here with you)

[He gives an affirmative shout - hot chocolate, mm, that sounds much better - and... not too much later, he's peeking out from the window again with two steaming cups of hot chocolate.

(It has cinnamon in it too. ~Surprise~)]


Did I miss anything? Um-- here, the cups-- [Shiiifting as much as he can out of the window without having to use his hands and holding them up.] Careful, they're hot.
i_am_not_cute: ((manga) who is that girl i see)

[personal profile] i_am_not_cute 2012-01-17 04:43 am (UTC)(link)
[Pao-Lin leans over and takes the cups carefully with gloved hands.]

Nah, they haven't started anything yet. [A thoughtful frown.] What time is it, anyway? [It's already dark, but that doesn't mean too much in winter.]
subsultive: (011 strike up the band and)

[personal profile] subsultive 2012-01-18 10:02 pm (UTC)(link)
[He can-- manage to get back up himself, even if he's shaking a little when he sits beside Pao-lin.]

Um... I'm not sure... but it can't be too early. I'm sure they'll start up any-- [look, an explosion in the sky!!]

...moment now.
i_am_not_cute: (you did WHAT with the cat?!)

[personal profile] i_am_not_cute 2012-01-21 07:15 pm (UTC)(link)
[Pao-Lin's eyes light up, and she claps.]

Whoah! That's so cool!

[Pao-Lin's seen fireworks before, but nothing as intricate or as detailed as this, with some of the light displays turning into creatures that prance through the night sky before fading away. Helios is sure having a lot of fun helming the pyrotechnics this year.]
subsultive: (036 i'll wait)

[personal profile] subsultive 2012-01-23 08:35 am (UTC)(link)
[Fireworks aren't things he sees often - Ashihara isn't really part of Regnum's territories, not the way that Galpos or Naos is, and while they import them sometimes it isn't as often as he would like - so even if it had been nothing special it would've taken his breath away.

But seeing the creatures dance across the sky makes him grin and wonder if Ashihara has fireworks like this.]


It's wonderful... [And Pao-lin looks rather pretty with the fireworks' colors on her face, he notices out of the corner of his eye, and it makes him redden a little.] I'm really glad we climbed up here.
i_am_not_cute: (the happiest you'll ever see me)

[personal profile] i_am_not_cute 2012-01-23 07:21 pm (UTC)(link)
See? Now you know why I love coming up here. [She holds up her mug of hot chocolate.] Toast for the New Year?
subsultive: (025 strike up the band)

[personal profile] subsultive 2012-01-27 03:48 am (UTC)(link)
[He clinks his mug against hers, nodding.] To a good year, and many more.
