Aw geez! It's October already?! When did that happen?! That means not only did I miss my own freakin' birthday like 2 weeks ago - my twenty-first birthday - that means it's playoff season! Man, I hate this stupid town. I'm gonna miss the World freakin' Series! Lame

Do you know if anything happened over New Years' last year?

[freakinblur]

I got here about February, an' I don't remember anyone sayin' anythin' about it. So I ain't sure.

[ergaleomancer]

Let them do what they will for the rest...New Years' is a sacred holiday in my homeland.

[freakinblur]

Nothin's sacred in this freaky town.

[This is very important to Taiga. She will NOT let the town ruin her Christmas, even if it means celebrating it early.]

What happened at Christmas?

[freakinblur]

She's long since droned, but I had a friend back when I first got here who said that the heads 'a drones got delivered in some gifts ta everyone.

[tsuntiger]

[Eww. She just... won't open presents from Mayfield itself.]

Disgusting... Is that all, or did Mayfield decide to turn the town into a freezer too?

[freakinblur]

Dunno 'bout that. I think Tifa said somethin' 'bout a riot too. Like the whole town got together ta try an' distract Grady, an' cause havoc all over town. But he can teleport an' mass drone people, so it didn't work. An' then bam, drone heads in tha mail.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY~!

Hmmmm, Halloween... That's the holiday where people dress up in scary costumes and get free candy, right? Yeah, that was right before I got droned last year! Let's see, what happened back then... Oh, yeah! The drone kids egged everyone's houses and put toilet paper in the trees and stuff. Pretty tame, for this town~

[freakinblur]

Hey, thanks! Yeah, someone else said that. That is pretty lame. I don't think they'll let us off two years in a row.

[sting_like_a]

No, probably not... You never know, though! This place really likes to go back and forth between the scary stuff and the stupid stuff. [sigh] Whatever, as long as I don't get forced into washing the Smiths' house for them again...

[freakinblur]

True. I mean, the hotel thing went pretty well fer me at least, dunno 'bout everyone else.

What? Washin' the Smiths' house?

[miss_enma_ai]

I was here last year.

[freakinblur]

Yeah? Ya been here a long time too, huh kiddo. But apparently I got my info all mixed up. But I don't think they're gonna let us off easy fer Halloween this year. I got a bad feelin'.

[miss_enma_ai]

A year and two months.

Nothing much happened last year.

....I went out trick or treating.

[freakinblur]

Even so, I think we should prob'ly be on our toes this year.

..Yeah? In costume an' everythin'? [He grins] What'd ya dress up as?

[teutonic_terror]

... Yes. I am 'still kicking'.

[And still speaking with that gross American accent. Stupid Post Office.]

[freakinblur]

What, wh-- Doc? Geez, I'll never get used ta ya talkin' like that. it's friggin' weird. I guess it's just us two, then, huh?

[teutonic_terror]

As of now, yes. Which is extremely troubling, given then I am currently blind and you can only do so much on your own.

[Whyyy, Mayfield? Why do you continuously deny him a Heavy?]

[freakinblur]

Hey, I can do plenty on my own! Been doin' it fer a long time now, thanks.

Yer still blind? Yer eyes are really worth that damn thing?
