a message from the Holiday Lights

[futureofdata]

I was attacked by the lights today. I was headed to the Forge and they suddenly all came at me. This has never happened before. They tied me up and they wouldn't let go until I listened to them. They say that they had a message for everyone. They said you need to be kinder to them. They say this is the one time of year that they actually get to

Right, you are taking a break. You're overworking yourself again, Sada-niichan.

[futureofdata]

I can't, Yuuta. I have too much to do still. There are so many people at camp that require gifts of the season and I wish to help make that happen.

[lefykiller]

Didn't I tell you that you don't have to make presents for everyone?! And if you're really that worried about it, then let me help you. All mine are mostly done, so I have the time to spare.

[futureofdata]

I know you did but I just want everyone to have a pleasant holiday season and it seemed unequal for some to get something while others did not. of course certain people are going to get better somethings than others...I am allowed to play favorites...right?

Oh my I wasn't expecting anyone to get that friendly with the lights. But we do greatly appreciate them. Hopefully the local grinches will handle with more care. Thank you for the light service message~

[futureofdata]

I am friendly with all the electronics around here. Even the lights. I understand them in a way that few others do.

I will pass your message of encouragement along to them know. It will make them happy to know that they are liked.

[tomomagic]

It's nice to know I have someone to find the answers whenever electronics get mad at me then.

And good, let them know if they have more ideas on how to stay out more around the year we're all ears.

[futureofdata]

Since they seem me as one of them, it's very easy for me to do so. But I doubt you can make them too terribly angry. You don't mistreat them.

I will do that.

Thank you, Inui-kun. I know I appreciate them which is why I helped put up so many and I will endeavor to treat them gently when they need to come down.

[futureofdata]

Do they...have to come down? Is there a way to keep them around longer? I'm sure they'd be happy if they could stay up for just a little longer than usual. Before they get stored in that dark place again.

[tsumetaiyuu]

It's traditional that lights go down after the holidays, but there's no reason they can't be put up at different times of the year. Maybe we can talk to Ryuuzaki-sensei about it.

[futureofdata]

They would like that. I'll ask for them.

[zenzaitensai]

I dunno, Mrs. Claus might like a holiday light mummy under the tree.

If we have too many lights to use regularly, we should give them away to a more vibrant place. College students use lights in their dorms all the time.

[futureofdata]

They just need to go where they will be loved and not misused.

[ooc: if Zai wants, he can have taken a picture of the Inui christmas light mummy]

[zenzaitensai]

So not here.

(ooc: wonderful! It'll be part of Yanagi's Christmas present)

[futureofdata]

From what my data indicates, you are correct. Anyplace but here.

Perhaps it would help the lights if they felt they had a connection with another camper, Inui-kun. We all need to feel we have friends.

[futureofdata]

I think the only way they would feel that way would be in that camper could power them. There are very few I know who could do this. and I am terrified of all of them

[applestocacti]

But... not zero.

[futureofdata]

This is true. Still, it is something I would hesitate to do for fear of my own well being. If I could get someone else to help me, that would be ideal.
