[ Out wandering around in Somarium today is a disgruntled Letter Bee. He still hasn't gotten used to the entire 'where is manmade sun' thing, but... he's settling in. Sort of.

The snow helps. It was always snowing in Yuusari. ]

It's gift giving season, right? I used to have to wear a funny suit back home and go out delivering gifts to kids.

[Hm.]

Was that your occupation for the season?

[blackneedle]

Not the season, just for a night.

[boat_lights]

What a long night it must have been.

[soloriens]

Funny suit?

[blackneedle]

Yes! Red, and white... and they made me wear a beard.

[soloriens]

[...]

Why?

[blackneedle]

... I'd like to know that myself, to be honest.

[rise_to_caesar]

Yeah? Was it red and white?

[blackneedle]

Yeah, weirdly enough. It was a lot different from our normal outfit.

[rise_to_caesar]

Yeah? Where I'm from, kids believe in a man named "Uncle Santa" who brings them presents around this time of year. He dresses in a suit of red and white.

[nolessthanseven]

A funny suit? Sounds like a great mundie tradition I've heard about.

[blackneedle]

So it's not just in my world? That's interesting.

[nolessthanseven]

Not if you dress up as some huge guy with a beard who magicks himself down chimneys. I mean, it's a bit weird how mundies believe in something like that when they can't even believe in faeries or warlocks.

[blackneedle]

I've never heard of those. But we didn't go down chimneys - doors... usually worked.

[tastysidedish]

Did you have a part-time job dressing up as Santa?

[blackneedle]

Santa? [ He wonders if there is someone here named Santa. ]

No! I'm a letter courier. But during the holidays, we'd be put up to deliver gifts.

[tastysidedish]

S-Sorry! You said a funny suit and delivering gifts so I just assumed you meant Santa!

So you're a mailman, kinda?

[blackneedle]

That's okay. Seems close enough, anyways!

Yeah, that's what I am. I deliver the precious letters of people all over the country!

[ He takes way too much pride in his job. ]
