People talking about the future... just an irritating reminder that I have none. Just this place. Hard to believe it didn't used to seem so bad. It's almost comforting not being the only one that wishes he'd come back, though, even if I wish she wasn't here.

No surprise. I didn't expect to get what I wanted for Christmas, anyway.

Happy belated Christmas, everyone-- I hope you enjoyed it.

So, where's the party for New Year's Eve?

|[ooc: Strikes as always are nonexistant flavor text, ahaha. ANYWAY. Christmas gifts~

Deb: Fffffft um. A GIANT collection of bad horror movies and a bouquet of white roses. And dinner at the nicest restaurant in town.
Lilith: A nice hardcover copy of Paradise Lost (as a good-natured joke about that Frankenstein curse,) and a cashmere scarf
Demyx: a black wool hat and scarf set because omg i suck at buying imaginary gifts worse than i suck at buying real ones. Also (unless you don't wanna go for the wtf >D) Demyx will receive a heart, wrapped in plain paper and red ribbon, with no trace of where it came from or who sent it, completely print and evidence free, because festivity = dismemberment in Brian's mind.

Everyone else that he chats with semi-regularly can assume they got a reasonably nice bottle of wine or a small gift-basket of fruit and cookies and junk, [as you prefer, and obviously the basket if your char’s underage >D heh] because I suck at keeping track of who he actually knows… orz… but he’s good about his social obligations. If you aren't sure whether you would've gotten something, just assume you did. ^__^;; AND NOW I AM DONE WITH MY PRETEND CHRISTMAS SHOPPING. THANK GOODNESS. XD]|

Ah-No, I meant that there was a Christmas ball very recently.

It was peaceful.

Mmhm. Deb and I swung by it, briefly. Good to see high holiday spirits in spite of everything.

That's generally a good thing. Mine was, too.

I briefly attended to greet the hostess and left as quickly. Ah...I am not a very good dancer.

[cold_dry_pieces]

Yeah? That surprises me.

[holymadonna.livejournal.com]

Does it truly? My tutors thought that a distraction.

A healthy body breeds a healthy mind, or so they say.

Ah-My body was subjected to training to remain healthy, but dancing was never part of it.

[cold_dry_pieces]

I see. I bet you could learn, though-- you move well.

Have you seen me move during the dancing contest? It was awful.
