Someone wanna tell about this "White Day" thing? Is it a real holiday somewhere, or did Somarium just make it up?

Quite honestly, I have no idea. I have heard others claim it to be a proper holiday, but it is nothing any of the nations I associate with celebrate.

thecoolestsoul March 19 2010, 19:45:52 UTC

Exactly what I mean. That's why I'm kinda wondering if they made it up for kicks.

I wasn't here a year ago, so I have no idea if they did it last year or not.

I wouldn't put it past Somarium, sadly. I was here this time last year, and they did, in fact, put on something similar to this.

Really? Then I hope the creepy man-auction is just a new addition.

You never heard of it Soul? It's a big thing where I came from.

thecoolestsoul March 19 2010, 19:44:05 UTC

I'm from the States, and I don't think I've ever heard anything about it. What's it celebrate?

gimme_ur_pants March 20 2010, 02:22:22 UTC

Ahh. No wonder! It's a big holiday in Japan~ Basically, it's just a day where the men can give back a little something to the women who gave them chocolate on Valentines Day.

The unwritten rule is you have give something that's thrice as expensive as a gift but it doesn't have to be that way! You can get creative with your present if you want. It's the thought that counts after all.

Oh.

[He looks mildly surprised that it's something so simple and... sort of cute.]

Having one day for each gender to do present-giving seems fair. Kind of lame that Somarium decided to warp it into "man auction day".

I think I might have heard of it before...

thecoolestsoul March 19 2010, 20:40:01 UTC

In a book, maybe.

[And that remark was not intended as mocking in any way!]

Remember anything?

That's... sort of comforting. Somehow the idea of them making up even more gimmicks doesn't make me too excited.

Spira doesn't have that holiday either.

thecoolestsoul March 19 2010, 20:45:10 UTC

I'm not really surprised. Seems like half of us are totally clueless about it. You'd think they'd just tell us outright to save themselves some trouble.

albhedbnehlacc March 20 2010, 05:56:19 UTC

Well, I just arrived too, so it's more or less like being thrown into it all at once.

It's a bit overwhelming, actually.

thecoolestsoul March 21 2010, 04:26:44 UTC

Pff, no kidding. How are you handling it so far?

It's pretty different, huh?
