White Day

[dual_wield_hax]

So uh I guess by community standards it's White Day today. Being stuck where I am I can't really get anyone anything, unless we can get me out of the game for a day? It's not like I'm waiting for anything recently, considering people are still pointing at me and whispering behind my back.

I guess I'll have to wait for another few more weeks before the hubbub dies down, but they're starting to call me The Black Swordsman recently. I suppose it's better than "Beater" is anyhow.

Should at least get Sugu something... otherwise I'll probably be hit for forgetting later on.

The Black Swordsman? Sounds kinda ominous.

What's White Day?

[dual_wield_hax]

Kinda. It just means the color of my outfit. And that I use a one-handed style, no shield.

White Day is a celebration in Japan for giving gifts in return for those that you got previously on Valentines.

[seasaltzombie]

Ha ha, alright. When you put it that way, it does sound a bit less ominous.

Huh, really? I think this is the first time I've heard of it. It's a nice idea, though.

[dual_wield_hax]

Trust me, I'd prefer Black Swordsman over Beater any day.

Yeah, it's a tradition in Japan really. Siblings give chocolate to one another since it's a sign of filial affection and all, but girls and guys give chocolate on various days.

[seasaltzombie]

It does have a better ring to it.

So... what, it's girls on Valentine's Day, boys on White Day?

[dual_wield_hax]

Yeah it does.

Yeah, girls on Valentines Day give chocolate and gifts to guys, and on White Day boys reciprocate it.

[seasaltzombie]

Wow... you must end up getting an unbelievable stomachache from all that chocolate if you're popular.

[dual_wield_hax]

It's not bad but I don't get too many chocolates in a day.
