hi again everyone!
so ive learned a bit about valentines day
and in doing so ive found its celebrated differently in different places? :o
and also in some places like japan
theres a corresponding holiday called white day!

so anyway my question today is do you celebrate valentines
and if so how
just out of curiosity
with absolutely no ulterior motive whatsoever

also exactly how many human holidays are there because so far there have been rather a lot of them my goodness
its almost like theres a holiday for every month
and there are at least five ways to celebrate each one
i think i need a chart

Guess you've got a point on that one. Well, it sure does make things interesting at least- if nothing's the way I think it's going to be, then I don't know what to expect.

Always did like diving head-first into the unknown.

I've never really had the chance to dive into something so unknown. Exploring my homeland ages ago, maybe, but...well, I always knew what would happen, or what needed to happen, until I came here.

It's nice.

Knew what needed to happen? How's that?

[It sounds pretty weird. And a little boring.]

But yeah- sometimes the best thing is not knowing what's coming next.

I was the Maid of Time. And the spirits of the dead talked to me. So...I was responsible for making sure that what had to happen did, in fact, happen. If it didn't, our timeline would and did become a "doomed" timeline, where we were all fated to die.

'Maid of Time' sounds kind of important on its own- but geez, talking to the dead, too? You're pretty chipper for that kind of girl, aren't you?

...but geez. That sounds like a lot to be responsible for.

Maybe! But I guess I'm just very happy to be alive again. It's nice! And I missed being able to feel things. It was hard to feel things when I was dead - at least, I had feelings, but they weren't the same thing at all.

Okay, you're definitely way more chipper than you should be about 90 percent of that, I'll tell you right now. Are you always so optimistic?

I suppose so? I didn't used to be, but again, I have a new perspective now!

Man, kid- you're something else, you know that? I mean, it's not a bad thing, of course but just...

Well. I'm not easily impressed, but let's just say you're doing a hell of a job.

I think I'll take that as a compliment!

[ Since she's not sure how else to take it, anyway. ]

It's meant as one, believe me.

[Dang Aradia, you're a qt.]

Then I fully accept! ...And thank you.

You're welcome. Try not to dive into anything too dangerous though, alright?

Haha, I'll do my best! Although I do have people I travel with, and...well, most of them would keep me out of it.

[ Jake would probably be in it with her. ]

The best kinds of friends aren't the ones who bail you out of jail- they're the ones who are sharing your cell with you.

[Words of wisdom from Envy Adams.]

But the ones who keep you out entirely are usually the kind that are the most help in a bad situation.

Hmm...thinking about it, I think they'd just give me advice to keep me out of it, those other three. I mean, I think they'd definitely be the words of wisdom if it came to that!

And then most of them would probably end up in jail with me. They're all great friends, really.

Sounds like it- lucky you that you have such a good entourage with you.

Do you have a travel party yet?

Nah, it's just me and my pokémon right now. Never really considered traveling with anyone else.

Oh! I suppose I didn't consider not going with someone, but I also ended up arriving at the same time as a bunch of other people, so it was just logical.

Guess it's whatever works at the time, right? If I ever find anyone that can keep up, maybe I'll consider it.

You definitely should! If only because memory comas can happen to anyone.

Memory comas? [This is news.] What's a memory coma?

Sometimes people fall into comas here - and occasionally the cause is, well...they wake up with new memories from home. Think of it as a temporal update!

Oh. Well that's kind of weird.

Guess people can't stay the same forever or something, right?
