So, that Christmas thing was fun, huh? I've never celebrated Christmas before but I actually really enjoyed it! It was nice, choosing and making presents for everyone. I hope everyone had fun with the festival and all. And that will happen again next year? I wonder if we have Christmas back home. I should ask Eugene....

[Okay now calm down girl. Don't get too excited. :l]

Oh! Right. Thank you to everyone who gave me presents. It's wonderful to see everyone getting together and sharing things like this. I can't wait to learn more about the different holidays. I never really celebrated any back home before so all these here are kind of exciting!

It sounds like we're getting in some new arrivals? So um, hi there! I'm Rapunzel. [An almost annoyed sort of chirp can be heard and a little green...frog? No, chameleon appears at her shoulder underneath the trail of blonde. A seventy foot trail of blonde, not that all of it is necessarily visible as she sits curled up on her bed in her room.] And Pascal, of course. My best friend. No, he's not a frog. He's a chameleon. I know Asgard can be confusing at first, but it's pretty easy to make friends here and there's usually always someone willing to help you out. If you have any questions I might be able to help?

Saying hi to the new arrivals out of the way, in terms of more recent things, has anyone figured out what that meant last month? About the world tree, I mean? Alice and I went to the library to have a look, but I was wondering if anyone else might have found anything.

....I've never seen one of those before.

[The chameleon, that is.]

[seethelanterns]

Seen--oh! You mean Pascal? Yeah, I don't think they're too common as pets at least. I'm not sure if some worlds might not even have chameleons for that matter.

[trust_us]

He seems like he'd be easy to lose.

[Enter Samantha, the scratchy-voiced, inhuman buzz-kill of buzz-kills. Odd... hadn't she been close to Draco once, a long time ago? No, nevermind, that wasn't important anymore.]

The world is dying. If we do not change what's happening already, this place will crumble and wither away. We have to stop reacting and make the next move.

[Rapunzel had, or was previously before leaving and returning with no recollection of Asgard and her time as Draco's girlfriend. Which she is still oblivious about for that matter, given he hasn't told her.]

I know we need to help, and colour is returning. I was just wondering about the tree, if there is anything, what we can do about that?

[Oh the drama!]

Help this to somehow come to a conclusion. We have to help end the war, so that the world can heal.

[Mind you, she didn't mean end it peacefully.]

[comeonthensexy]

You're welcome.

[ For the gifts. Since Samantha's already talking about the tree. ]

[Video]

[seethelanterns]

How was your Christmas? Did you have a good one?

[Video]

[comeonthensexy]

I did, yes. It was brilliant. Did you?

[brainiest]

I don't really know what's going on, at least relating to the world tree or the other world. I've heard some theories, but nothing concrete or enough to really sell me on any one idea.

[ A pause. Then - ]

I've scoured the library from head to toe, as best as I can. I haven't found anything useful either.

video.

[seethelanterns]

That doesn't surprise me. Alice and I didn't find much specific on the tree either.

[But. More importantly, since she has met Hermione previously.]

It's good to see you again. But I guess you might not remember me.

[brainiest]

[ Oh. Oh. ]

No, I'm sorry. I don't remember anyone I met here before.

[Video]

[madcuriosity]

You're quite welcome, Miss Rapunzel, but you know, I had nearly forgotten about the voice with all the holiday things about.

[Video]

[seethelanterns]

The holidays and festival was a nice distraction from it all I guess.

[Video]

[madcuriosity]

You only guess? Christmas is one of my favorite times of the year!

[doggedly]

I've got a question.

voice;

[seethelanterns]

Yes? I'll answer if I can. I mean, there might still be some things I don't know but I can definitely try!

[littlesoul]

[River wasn't going to say anything until she saw the strange little creature at Rapunzel's shoulder, then her curiosity gets peaked.]

He's very pretty. [She offers a smile and a wave tot he little creature, more interested in him than anything else.]

[seethelanterns]

He is, isn't he? He seems to have hardly grown since I first found him but we've been together for years now. He's always fun to paint or draw, the way he can change colours too.

[And Pascal seems rather pleased at that compliment, nodding and seeming to smile.]

[curiousing]

[ Did someone mention wanting to learn about other holidays??? ]

Have you ever heard of a holiday called 'Halloween'?

video;

[seethelanterns]

I can't remember if we celebrated that one. I know I didn't know of it back home.

[VIDEO]

[unbrokenwheel]

Yeah uh, the bit about the tree is pretty much figured out over here. Or at least, you know, I have some 'theories'. [And from the sober way he's looking into the screen it's not good news at all.]

[VIDEO]

[seethelanterns]

Oh, you figured it out, Leo? That's great! What do you think it meant?

[....Pause and her expression falls a little.]

It's....bad, huh?

[digophelia]

First Christmas? Do they not have it where you are from?

video;

[seethelanterns]

Well, if they do I hadn't celebrated it back home. Mother never mentioned it to me at least, so I didn't know about it until recently.
