[See Pearl. See Pearl leaning back from switching her webcam on and waving at the camera with a bright, slightly nervous smile on her face.]

Hello, community! I can't believe it's almost Christmas again, can you? Mystic Maya's started getting us all to decorate the manor already, and it started snowing up here in Kurain village the other night. It hasn't been much yet, but I just know that we're going to have lots by the time Christmas comes!

But! [And she starts to look a little bashful here, playing with a strand of her hair] Um, what I wanted to show you was a song I've been teaching myself. Because one of the best parts of Christmas is all the songs you sing, right? And this year I've been trying to teach myself one in a different language! It's been difficult to get all of the words right, but, um... well, I'll just show you!

[And so she clears her throat and launches into the Italian version of Silent Night. It's quite badly pronounced, and her voice wavers on some of the notes from nerves, but it's clear enough. She makes it through the first verse before stopping with an embarrassed smile.]

So, that's it! I know I'm not very good yet, but maybe by Christmas it'll be okay! Oh, and while I'm here, I want to ask something! [She props her chin up in her hands, still looking a little embarrassed] What's your favourite Christmas song?

[a-awww that was about the cutest thing ever ;u;] I thought you sounded lovely! What song is that, if I might ask?

[nick-4-maya.livejournal.com]

[ffff she's blushing now, Leliana] Really? Thank you very much! The song was Astro del Ciel, which is the Italian version of Silent Night.

[captivatingsong.livejournal.com]

[Leliana is not one to discourage someone's attempt at singing! Especially if that someone is tiny and adorable] Not one I've heard before, I'm afraid, but sounded like you were doing a fine job regardless. It must have taken some practice.

[nick-4-maya.livejournal.com]

Yes, it has a little bit! I only know a few words of Italian, and I'm not very good at pronouncing it yet, but I wanted to try this anyway.

[captivatingsong.livejournal.com]

Well, in that case, I'm looking forward to hearing you when you really have a grasp on it. What's your name, little one?

Ah! Thank you very much!

[movinghair.livejournal.com]

[grinning from ear to ear] That was really good! Was that your first time singing it?

[nick-4-maya.livejournal.com]

[Nod nod] Yes! Well, I've been practising the lines one by one to make sure I have the words right, but this was my first time all the way through!

[YOU APPLAUDED HER she hoped he would see this ;u;]

Oh, Mr. Romano! Was it okay?

[now all i can think is AAAAALWAYS]

[tsuntohisdere.livejournal.com]

[It's a little embarrassing, but she's a cute girl and she's also a little kid, so he can ease off on the tsun tsun a bit and praise her more openly.]

Yeah. Ti faccio i miei complimenti, Perla. You just have to work on your accent.

[I WANT TO BEEEEE WITH YOU]

[nick-4-maya.livejournal.com]

[There's a second while she mouths the Italian to herself in an attempt to figure out what he said, but then she gets the gist of it and smiles broadly]

Ah, tha-- um, I mean, molte grazie! I'll do my best!

[hands4healing.livejournal.com]

There are songs, too?

[nick-4-maya.livejournal.com]

Of course, lots of them! They're the best part!

[hands4healing.livejournal.com]

[nick-4-maya.livejournal.com]

Don't you have Christmas on your world, Miss?

[samuraiprosecutor]

That was...quite impressive, I must say.

[nick-4-maya.livejournal.com]

[She is positively glowing at getting praise from Edgeworth ;3;] Really? Thank you very much, Mr. Edgeworth!

Oh, Idgie and I were going to ask you guys: Christmas in Kurain again this year? :3

[samuraiprosecutor]

[Edgeworth is so proud of teh bb. ;3;]

You're very welcome, Miss Fey. Have you begun to study Italian?

I'm up for it! Although I may have to back/forward date any RLs since my family are coming over here

[nick-4-maya.livejournal.com]

[She nods] Yes, a little bit! I can only say some simple things so far, and I'm not very good yet, but I've started trying to learn some words.

[gluttonforpasta.livejournal.com]

YOU DID SO GOOD!

[nick-4-maya.livejournal.com]

[She giggles, still looking pleased and bashful] Molte grazie, Mr. Italy!

[gluttonforpasta.livejournal.com]

Your Italian is getting really really nice! You're really smart, Pearl!

[nick-4-maya.livejournal.com]

Oh no, I'm not that smart! I'm glad that you think my Italian's getting good, though. I'm definitely going to keep on practising!
