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?

[...Oh. So she's a stranger too. And so is Pilouette.

...

Are strangers meant to get along with one another? But wait, strangers are bad, and if she herself is a stranger then what does this mean?!

...Looking down at the ground, deep in thought. Or at least as deep into thought Yotsuba can manage.]

These are some troubled times.

[ribbonbon]

_{[Pilouette takes a minute to absorb that remark.]}

Uh.

W-Well.

Well! Let's like, stop being strangers! That's a good way to start off the new year, right? You can call me Pils!

[rollypolyclover]

Ohhh, that makes sense. Not being strangers is good!

[Walking closer again and holding out her hand for a handshake. This is how grown-ups greet new people y'know!]

Hi Pils, I'm Yotsuba, like four! Don't forget it!

[ribbonbon]

_{[Smiling, she shakes Yotsuba's hand.]}

I'll make sure to remember!

_{[She then stands up.]}

So! How about we watch these fireworks, huh?

[rollypolyclover]

Good! Watching the fireworks sounds like fun, lets do that!

[Standing up straight and giving Pilouette and nice big smile.]

Back home, Yotsuba would watch them with daddy and Jumbo and Ena and Miura. We all sat and a blanket and it was really cool!

[ribbonbon]

Sounds fun! I watched the fireworks with my friends back home, too. But some of the ones here are pretty different, huh?

[rollypolyclover]

Oh yeah, some of the ones here go like 'whoosh' and then boom! But the fireworks at home would go 'wheeeeesssh' and then KA-BOOM!! Really different!

[ribbonbon]

Yeah! ...You know.

Someone told me that some of these fireworks are made with magic!

[rollypolyclover]

With magic? Oooh... That makes them even more sparkly! Magic fireworks are really cool, right?

[ribbonbon]

_{[She lets out a friendly laugh.]}

They're totally cool! It's like, every other day something amazing happens here!

[rollypolyclover]

Yeaaah, this place has lots of cool stuff! Like, this one time, Yotsuba met this pirate! He's named Captain Jack and he has a pony. And then Yotsuba got a sidekick called fluffy Buffy. Then Yotsuba and Otonashy had candy and it was good.

[ribbonbon]

Hmm...I don't think I've met those people...But maybe I will soon! I bet they're nice, huh? There's all kinds of amazing people here~!

I even met a talking dog once...!

[rollypolyclover]

There are, Yotsuba wants to meet more cool people. And more pirates, and fluffy people, and, and-- [DID SHE SAY TALKING DOG?! Yotsuba knows one of those!] It's Dug, right? It has to be Dug, Dug could talk and he was a dog! Yotsuba taught him how to dance!!

[ribbonbon]

Yeah! Yeah, it was Dug! So not only can he tell talk, he can dance now, too?! Omigosh. He's gotta be like, the greatest dog ever...!

[rollypolyclover]

He must be the bestest best dog! Most dogs are really scary, and they bark, right? But Dug was being really nice and he didn't want daddy to put him on his head, but Yotsuba said it was okay and we should dance instead. So we did!
