IC HOLIDAY CARD POST

[plzdontoustme]

[Today in camp's center, there is a puppywolf carting along a small sled, topped with a bag full o'holiday cards. As he dashes along, one or two might be fluttering to the ground. Hey, is that your name on them? Maybe it's worth checking out.]

Oh, I hope I can find someone who knows who these belong to!

((OOC: Camp has left some presents~. Think

*sees you and your nosiness but doesn't really mind*

It's something familiar from home.

[stillyouridol]

A card? You're able to get mail from home?

[runstowardsfire]

It's not from the people at home.

[stillyouridol]

[trying to peek at it]

Then what is it?

[runstowardsfire]

It's holiday greetings for a holiday that doesn't exist here. Possibly from Camp or someone who knows about it.

*the card might say "Happy Hogswatch" and feature these guys on it*

[stillyouridol]

...That's a bit creepy. What's Hogswatch?

[runstowardsfire]

It's only Death dressed up as the Hogsfather.

It's the winter solstice festival. A long time ago, it marked the passing of mid-winter, but now, people give each other presents and get rascally drunk.

[stillyouridol]

...So it's just like Christmas, except with Death instead of Santa.

[runstowardsfire]

No, Death has a completely different job altogether. This could be a joke.

[stillyouridol]

That's less morbid, at least.

[runstowardsfire]

[Going off on a tangent about the ancient winter solstice rituals makes you look even more morbid, Tiffany.]

Perhaps. It's mostly about the cycle of the seasons in the end.

[stillyouridol]

Can't be worse than an old fat guy committing home invasion...

[runstowardsfire]

[You must be one of the cynical . . .]

Seen from that angle, it might be suspicious, but it's good incentive for people to behave.

[stillyouridol]

[I'm cranky about everything. ...Except Sempai]

Bribing people into good behavior, hn. It's a bit depressing that things have come to that.

[runstowardsfire]

[Is that not the basis of most things in the world?]

Ah, but parents do it all the time.
