A Question about Christmas

[ninjainviolet]

To All Heroes of Light:

From everything I've seen and heard, Christmas and the Starlight Celebration sound really nice, but I have a question.

I don't want to put a damper on things, but I can't help but wonder why we need a special day or event in order to let friends know just how much they mean to us. Shouldn't that be something that's done all year round? Because you never know what can happen, right?

[ Such a cheery thought...sort of. ]

My apologies if this offends or depresses anyone.

~Sheena Fujibayashi

[ A note soon appears at the bottom. ]

Could someone please take Sheena out to do something? She's been doing nothing but work at the Library and stay home since Zelos went into stasis, and I think getting out will help--especially since yesterday was her birthday--but she won't listen to me.

~Corrine.

[ ooc: As Corrine said, Sheena's depressed that Zelos is gone and isn't really getting out and enjoying the season. If you'd like to "kidnap" the ninja at anytime from work or home, just shoot me a PM, since we all know how well plurk works at times. ]

Sheena,

Certainly. I would love that. Are you busy tonight, or perhaps tomorrow afternoon would suffice? I seem to have some time with all the strange festivities going on. Yes, I can understand that thought. I am unfamiliar with a lot of the festivities here, unfortunately.

Corrine,

Excellent.

It should be rather easy on my part. I would leave you bringing her here as the hard part. I just sent her a letter asking if she would like to meet up. Perhaps, you can help me get her to agree?

-- Selen

[ When Sheena had said "soon", she hadn't meant quite that soon! She hadn't been lying when she had said she wants to meet up with Selen, but she doesn't think she's up to it right now.

So...time to stall. ]

Selen:

You don't waste any time, do you?

~Sheena

[ Yes, dodging the question for the moment. ]

Selen:

As usual, she's being stubborn. I doubt she'll agree to tonight, but I can probably get her to meet you tomorrow afternoon or evening. Would that be all right?

~Corrine

[wings_of_steel]

Not at all. Please do answer my question, Sheena. I'd very much like to get along with you more as frieds.

-- Selen.

[ Selen's not having it sorry. ]

---

Corrine,

That works for me honestly. I want an answer from her, or she might have a friendly visitor tomorrow afternoon without her knowledge~

-- Selen

[ninjainviolet]

[ She's feeling just a little bit pressured here, Selen. ]

Selen:

All right. Let me see if I have anything going on.

~Sheena

[ Stall. Stall. ]

---

Selen:

No matter what she tells you, surprising her tomorrow just might be the better idea. She definitely wouldn't expect it then.

~Corrine

[wings_of_steel]

Sheena,

Certainly.

How about we aim for tomorrow then? Anytime in the afternoon or evening would work on my end.

Let me know what you prefer~

-- Selen.

[ AKA Sheena won't get away with saying no and yes Selen can be quite pushy if she wanted to. ]

---

Corrine,

I suppose that works as well. I'll gather input on it and see if that will work for her.

--Selen

[ninjainviolet]

[ Dang it, Selen. No fair. ]

Selen:

All right. I'm free tomorrow night. I have some errands to run after work. where would you like to meet?

~Sheena.

[ After all, tea really isn't so bad, right? ]

---

Selen:

Good job! She might try to back out, but I won't let her!

Thank you for doing this!

~Corrine

[wings_of_steel]

[ All is fair in love and war dear Sheena. ]

Sheena,

We can meet at my home if that's alright? I'll cook us something for the evening!

Corrine,

Please to ensure she attends.

Thank you Corrine.
