Yeah.

caledvwich October 29 2007, 21:57:36 UTC

What purpose does it serve, or is the candy the only point?

monsterepellant October 29 2007, 22:01:00 UTC

For children, it's usually the dressing up and the candy.

For adults, it's usually dressing up and the parties.

It's mostly the passing on of a tradition.

caledvwich October 29 2007, 22:02:29 UTC

Parties?

A tradition, I see. Thank you.

Ah, is that what it is? That would explain why Sultana mentioned looking for costumes.

caledvwich October 29 2007, 22:38:48 UTC

Yes. I'm helping out with it... chaperoning children. I figured I may as well know something about it.

smilingteresa October 29 2007, 22:45:16 UTC

I see. It sounds like a fun day, it's been too long since I've celebrated any holidays. Perhaps I'll dress up as well.

Speaking of dressing up...I saw something while I was wandering across town that I thought you might like. It's...certainly different, the clothing style here is nothing like what I've seen before. But I thought you might like something to change into, so you don't have to wear that armor all the time.

caledvwich October 29 2007, 22:50:33 UTC

Dress up? I was just going to wear the armor.

I- Thank you, Teresa.

That'd be it.

caledvwich October 29 2007, 23:08:23 UTC

It's a very odd idea for a holiday.

so_very_greedy October 29 2007, 23:13:04 UTC

I hear it's based on some old human tradition about "scaring away evil" or somethin' like that.

caledvwich October 29 2007, 23:16:43 UTC

Yes, I saw as much, also. An odd concept, but not surprising.

Yeah. I mean, there's more to it, but that's the main reason a lot of people celebrate it.

caledvwich October 30 2007, 13:12:14 UTC

I see...

This place has much that my home does not.

unhesitating October 30 2007, 04:45:55 UTC

Clare.

It took me longer than I expected. This method of communication is still rather new to me.

[aka: my email notifications suck. D:]

caledvwich October 30 2007, 13:08:00 UTC

It is rather odd, I understand.

I heard you were here. How are you... settling in?

[ooc S' no problem :D]

unhesitating October 31 2007, 02:57:18 UTC

Hm. It will take some adjustment. It would be sad if a Claymore didn't have the ability to adapt quickly.

What of you, have you "settled"?

caledvwich October 31 2007, 03:02:03 UTC

I figured it out quickly enough; I have faith that you will do the same.

Well enough, yes.
