While I can't speak for other worlds, in Auldrant we celebrate the "new year" in the middle of winter, shortly after the longest night. It's a bit different from the way things work here...but regardless, I am curious as to how many other worlds share a similar tradition.
[filtered to the Auldrant folks with whom she has made conversation]
Would you like to have dinner, at this house, for the new year? We have some new arrivals, and I think it might be good for all of us to visit with each other. ...You are, of course, free to decline. It's just a thought.
[and further filtered, away from Asch and Luke]
...And to an extent I thought we might...be able to celebrate. Even if time here is a bit different.
[Then? Then she's out and about town, doing things. She'll stop at the bakery, the grocery store...briefly at the battledome, pausing at the programming station but not really doing anything there. Once, she thinks about visiting Professor Nebilim, but she can't be sure of how late the woman stays at the school after class, and she wouldn't want to interrupt.
In short, she's a little bit of everywhere, ending that evening at Good Spirits. For a change of pace. And a drink, of course. Facades can be such a strain on the system.]

[Is Nephry still referring to the food, or...?]

[And then she'll change the filter to lock the next bit to Nephry, because there is something that's been bothering Gelda.]
On that note... What is your opinion on that truce Van Grants suggested?
[Locked]
I don't know for sure. Some of the things he said made his offer seem less than sincere. It sounds as though he would still have no problem retaliating against any kind of perceived attack.
He's not someone I know, or knew, personally at home. ...Though I knew what was going on most of the time, and the specter of him is still quite powerful.
[Locked]
I don't believe we have anything to lose by accepting, as long as we don't let our guards down. He claims that he would not attack first. Let's hope these words are true.

But I did agree to it.

[It's Dist she's really worried about here. ...Tear too, maybe.]
