There's something the residents here should know, especially if you weren't here last year.

Last year, Adstringéndum experienced a two-and-a-half-month period of blizzards, and waist-high, if not more, snow levels. Naturally, it would make gathering supplies and doing other mundane tasks extremely difficult, if not outright dangerous.

People had made proper preparations. However, all winter shops and winter wear outright disappeared during this time. Everyone was missing some article of clothing from their wardrobe, leaving the residents with nothing but light autumn wear and summer clothing.

While it's doubtful the Animus or whoever did it will do it again this year, it would be best to prepare as if it were alongside with regular winter preparations. Find residence if you don't have one. Request help with repairs even if you're going to stay there temporarily. Hawke's offered to help with that here.

........

On a completely different note, anyone have suggestions for Halloween?

[The following is added a few minutes later.]

Additionally, there are those within Adstringéndum that have the ability to manipulate the elements. Fire, ice, lightning, etc. If you need help during the winter to clear snow or whatever to make conditions more bearable, keep in mind you can call on these people too.

Thanks, Sasuke.

...I almost forgot about Halloween. We should have a costume party.

[Little does Rei know that the Animus are going to help her out on this one. FINALLY, A COOL EVENT THAT DOESN'T END IN PAIN.]

[Zuko's indignance and curiosity is too much to remember that he's kind of ticked at Sasuke for the giant frog debocle, so he'll answer this one with a very incredulous:]

... waist-high?

[Fuck his life so hard, seriously, he is going to hate his life.]

And what's Halloween?

[Yes, he just said that.]
flameandpassion: (Rei: Huh? Let Me Sweep!)

[Video] Hey, I agree, Halloween is way more important than winter. Always. <3

[... ninjas.]

They don't have those in your world? -- well, the entire point of Halloween is getting dressed up, right? So you pick something you want to be and you go to the party dressed as that person.

Where I come from, Halloween's not a big deal. It's mostly an American thing... but sometimes people throw costume parties just because. I've been a ninja before, actually.

[That sounds like the dumbest thing ever.]

What do you dress up as?
flameandpassion: (Rei: What's that?)

It's a country in my world. In the West.

[Voice] omg Zuko could be the Phantom because half of his face is gone anyway. /TERRIBLE.

Did you get any candy?

[This is clearly the most important part. ... he also doesn't want to know who the hell gave Itachi candy.]

[identity profile] iceandivory.livejournal.com 2010-10-05 03:41 pm (UTC)(link)
That's ... informative.

[He can't keep up with you anymore, Sauce.]

[identity profile] iceandivory.livejournal.com 2010-10-05 03:51 pm (UTC)(link)
There are people with elemental affinities and abilities that should be able to help keep conditions bearable, I suppose.

... maybe I should add... don't dress as anything you wouldn't want to turn into.

If there are problems with snow or ice or whatever, I can probably help. Maybe it won't be as bad as last year.

It's generally called Samhain or Nos Calan Gaeaf where I'm from... but the celebrations in my country are a bit dark, I have to admit. I don't think we want to find out who is going to die in the coming year...

[Video] Ohai

[identity profile] iceandivory.livejournal.com 2010-10-05 06:55 pm (UTC)(link)
...There are valid ways of determining that?

... w-well, it's a superstition, I think... we would build a fire, and everyone would write their name on a stone and place it around the fire. The next day, the people who's stones were missing were going to die at some point during the next year.

[It almost sounds like Hino's methods, but no. Definitely not valid. Sigh and bother.]

Ah. I see.

So what are you going to dress up as?

[... well, now she's curious, Negi.]

Did it come true?

[Voice] YOU KNOW IT WOULD BE EPIC.

[identity profile] innerfirewithin.livejournal.com 2010-10-05 07:24 pm (UTC)(link)
... so you seriously just go up to random people and go 'trick or treat' and they just give you candy?

[What. Just. What. ... he is so trying this.]

Hn. I wonder who thought that was a good idea.
