[Day 195] AUDIO

[lethechained]

[There's a very quiet shuffling in the background, punctuated by a distant 'baa' right before Naminé begins to speak.]

 Happy Holidays, everyone.

[She sounds to be in a fairly good mood.]

 If anyone could suggest a place that I might be able to house my sheep while it's cold, I'd really appreciate it. It just seems wrong to leave her outside, and she's been in my room, but-- [Whoops, looks like she had to turn away from the bracelet for a moment.] Bo Peep, please don't do that...! [More clearly again,] ... but I've been thinking that it might not be the best place for her. Thank you-- Bo Peep, no! That's not food--
 

[Aaaaaaand there goes the feed.]
 

(( Naminé will also be going out today to hand out presents to those she's spoken to more than once. The post for that is here, and she may wish to discuss it in this post as well for the purposes of arranging meetings. ))

Holidays?

[Mordred is half concealed in darkness as he had been making use of Morgana's closet as a secret hideout once more, but there is enough light to show a curious expression on his face]

[-- Hm. That's... certainly a peculiar scene, there, but she does not ask, just makes mental note of it. It also briefly delays her response, since she can't help studying it for a moment.]

Yes, holidays. Do they not have those this time of year in your world?

[She says it gently, without any sort of criticism; it's an honest question.]

Re: [AUDIO - Filtered

[childofthewickedday]

...there is the solstice...but you said holidays...do you have many?

[AUDIO - Filtered]

[lethechained]

The solstice? [For a second she wonders if that has anything to do with Christmas, or if it's something else entirely, but she's got a question to answer, so she doesn't linger on it.] Mm-- well, I'm really only familiar with Christmas. But with so many worlds out there, it's hard to know what holidays there might be in each one. And-- with the way the city is, it's difficult to be sure about this place, too.

Yes...it is the shortest day of the year, when the sun is lowest in the southern sky. [He looks on more curiously] What is Christmas?

Sheep have rather effective natural insulation, Miss Naminé. So effective that humans use it for themselves. Anywhere with a few walls would undoubtedly be sufficient.

[audio; filtered]

[lethechained]

Are you certain that would really be enough? She's still so small...! -- I'm sorry. I do appreciate the advice. I guess I'm a bit of a-- [what's that word again-- oh,] ... worrywart. It would be terrible if something were to happen to her. [-- Pause, headshake.] But-- thank you.

[audio; filtered]

[deputychief]

They do live in such conditions even without walls in the wild, you know. Usually in herds, I believe, they stand to block the wind naturally, or something of the sort. Such animals possess - ah - certain virtues, and [..."while intelligence is not perhaps one of them", he doesn't say...] one of them is hardiness to weather conditions.

[audio; filtered]

[lethechained]

Hm.... I suppose that does make sense. They do have all that wool.

[There's a pause, and judging by the quiet 'baa' in the background, Bo Peep is getting a little attention as Naminé considers this.]

... Is it strange that it's still hard for me to imagine putting her out there? I feel a bit silly. [Just too protective of that lamb for her own good--]

[titties]

Happy Holidays. Heh. So you celebrated these in your owrld too huh?

[AUDIO - Filtered]

[lethechained]

Some people did, yes. I was never so lucky, but I'm very glad to have the opportunity to do it here. And-- you celebrated them in yours, didn't you?

[If she can assume by the way he said it, that is.]

[AUDIO - Filtered]

[titties]

Never? Then, that's all the more reason to make sure that this Christmas is really great~! Hihihi!

... Yeah, we did. In fact, the old bastard and Kyrie-san always managed to spoil us rotten on that day.

[AUDIO - Filtered]

[lethechained]

Hee...! I guess so. I'll do my best. [It won't be hard, since she's already planning on spreading a little cheer, which she's always happy to do.]

[Headtilt.] That's a funny way of talking about someone who spoiled you. [She doesn't sound accusatory, though, just amused.] I'm glad you had fun.

[adventuretime]

Oh! I might need to know a good place for my sheep too! I'm afraid she might eat everything in my house whenever I go out, but I don't want to lock her in a room or something. That would be really mean to do to her!

Maybe we could find a place for them to stay.

[Audio - Filtered]

[lethechained]

I know what you mean...! [Guess who's been trying to keep Bo from eating her drawings all day?] I've been having a hard time teaching her what not to eat. [Or getting her to cooperate, anyway. Bo's a bit of a trouble maker.]

Maybe. It might even be nice for them to have some company.

[Audio - Filtered]

[adventuretime]

[Being sheep owners is hard and no one understands.] I don't think she understands when I reprimand her for eating certain things.

But if we have them together, we might be okay. Or at least we can let them graze together. We could take turns so we aren't both tied to watching over them.

[Audio - Filtered]

[lethechained]

[Except other sheep owners--] Exactly...! I wonder if there's a better way to help them learn.

That's a good idea, Aradia...! I guess we can find out if they're more trouble or less together that way. [Who knows what shenanigans those two could accomplish together--]

Have you met Norman-kun, Namine-chan?

[lethechained]

[-- Oh. Hello there, cursed Conan. This would be a lot more confusing if she hadn't already seen his PSA. As it is, she can have a smile at the ready in no time.]

No, I haven't. Why do you ask?

[video - Filtered]

[not_proven]

His sheep, Mary, is living in our back yard right now! But I think he was going to talk to Shou-niichan about taking good care of her!

[video - Filtered]

[lethechained]

I see...! Thank you, Conan. How is Mary doing out there? [Because if he's talking to someone else about possibly different arrangements, then--]

[sparkling_eyes]

Happy holidays to you as well, Namine. I hope everything is all right.

[Sounds like she's having some issues with that sheep...]

Audio - Filtered

[lethechained]

[She is, though fortunately not serious ones. It takes her a few moments to respond because of said issues but respond she does.]

Thank you! And-- don't worry, everything's fine. Bo Peep just got a little too interested in some of my drawings.

[... The kind of interested that led to attempting to chew on them.]

[sparkling_eyes]

Where do farms normally keep their sheep during the winter? Maybe you could build an enclosure for her to sleep in.

[lethechained]

I've been thinking about that, too...! I was hoping that maybe there already was one somewhere in town with a little extra space, but that is a good idea - perhaps building one might be necessary if I can't find another option.
