So what I gather from a few places is that we're reaching the Christmas season. Huh.

What do you do to celebrate this time of year? Of course it's nowhere near Christmas for me... but still, I'm curious. Do you get people food, clothing, presents of sorts? Do you have a big party with friends or family or do you spend it quietly with close knit people?

Just to be clear, you're not planning to steal people's presents, are you?

[of_many_treasures]

... Do I look like I'm covered in green fur and wields a dog?

Although crashing an open party I'm not above doing.

[powerofpink]

You might consider it.

Anyway, before everything, my family would put up the tree on Thanksgiving while the turkey was in the oven. Then on Christmas Eve when I was little, we'd open our family presents, and the next morning, we'd have Santa's.

[of_many_treasures]

I might steal sentimental things but outright villainy like stealing presents... bad form I think.

That's quite early, but it's a nice tradition.

[powerofpink]

So we'd better guard the ornaments then.

Yep, my family liked to do things early.

[of_many_treasures]

Maybe. Just maybe.

Interesting. I have some memories of my own family Christmas. Though I won't be going back home to my world for it.

Why not? Afraid you're going to get a lump of coal this Christmas?

[ .. oh, this guy. Well, it's sort of weird to see him again after meeting him for the first time during that weird virus, but.. ]

All I'm doing for Christmas is hoping the community won't pull something weird on us.

Really? No party or anything?

[entreats]

Do you think I look like the type?

[ this is her lineface. :| ]

[of_many_treasures]

Nope, not really. But I'm sure there was once upon a time you did so. But that's just experience talking.

[entreats]

Of course I did when I was a kid, but that's way different.

[of_many_treasures]

Ever thought of celebrating it again? Curiosity's asking mostly.

[a_new_innovator]

Well, I never really celebrated Christmas until last year, but I spent a few days with a friend of mine and he showed me around the town where he lives.

[of_many_treasures]

Must be nice, being able to spend it with someone. I haven't been back to my world in years so... no Christmas for me.

[a_new_innovator]

Oh... I'm sorry to hear that. Maybe you'll find someone to celebrate with. You can travel to different worlds?

[of_many_treasures]

Maybe I will, sometime. And yes, I've been traveling between worlds for ages now.

[a_new_innovator]

I hope so. That's so interesting. There seem to be a few people in the community who can travel between worlds.

[of_many_treasures]

It honestly has its ups and downs. Especially if you want to leave where you were previously. For myself, there's thousands of treasures sleeping in the worlds and I intend on finding them all.

Christmas? What in the name of Arceus is that?

(Can't blame Mewtwo for not knowing. He is only a few months old at best.)

[of_many_treasures]

It's a time of celebration and goodwill. Also presents.

[the_original_clone]

Humans and good will? That's rich.

And what exactly is this celebration about and how are you supposed to celebrate?

[of_many_treasures]

Sounds like you have a low opinion of humanity in general.

You give gifts, invite people over for dinner, sing carols, the usual.

[the_original_clone]

Humans have yet to prove my interpretations wrong so why wouldn't I.

But why do you all do this? Is it this 'goodwill' you spoke of or is just a clever excuse to get things you want?

[of_many_treasures]

You must live an isolated life if you don't know anything about humanity.

Just idle curiosity. Memories of better days.
