0180 : Beautiful

[livingmyths]

Last night was so wonderful!

I was scared at first because last time it was dark all day, I think there were bad things around - but maybe the bad things were only in my head, I don't always know.

But the lights and, oh gosh, everything were just so pretty! I went up to the roof of the Library and watched from there almost all night and then I was so tired I just went to sleep in the Greenhouse. It's nice and warm in there, so it was okay.

Did everyone else have fun?

Everything was very beautiful, wasn't it? It was kind of like the way they celebrate Christmas with the lights hung everywhere as they were.

I thought we already celebrated New Year's though.

[Earth has two New Year's celebrations? That is a little odd! ]

Well, there is a Chinese New Year too. That one has dragon's and fireworks and stuff.

It's very pretty!

I have heard Earth has a lot of countries on one world instead of being entirely unified, I suppose that is what makes the difference.

[livingmyths]

Uh huh, it does. And everyone has different food and traditions, and best of all, stories! And myths and legends!

[Eagle agrees, with a nod of his head, that all of that does sound fun.]

It is too bad about that fire though. It is a shame the festival was interrupted like that.

Did they ever decide what the cause of that tragedy was?

I don't know. It was kind of scary, though.

I'm just glad nobody seemed to get hurt.

I was up on the roof watching then.

I suppose one of the lanterns could have escaped... That might have caused it. I will have to have a look around the area some time.

But, I am glad to hear no one had been hurt when that happened.

Re: [Video]

[livingmyths]

Me too. I don't like seeing people get hurt. It's too scary.

Of course, lots of things are scary, I guess. I'm just not so brave, probably.

[eagleofautozam]

I certainly sympathize with that.

[The City always managed to find new 'scary things' to throw at people. Even supposed accidents like this could cause a scare. ]

It is a very good thing that you were only watching from a distance.

Re: [Video]

[livingmyths]

I mostly watch things from a distance.

Told you I'm a scaredy-cat.

But I can be brave when I have to.

[eagleofautozam]

I'm sure you can be.

Excuse me, Ms. but what was your name again?

Re: [Video]

[livingmyths]

Oh gosh, I did it again! I always forget.

My name is Rain.

My name is Eagle Vision. It was very nice speaking to you Rain and I am glad you enjoyed looking at the lights the other day.

Zhere was nothing fun about it. Clearly someone should be fired.

Re: audio;

[livingmyths]

But why?

It was wonderful!

Re: audio;

[prosopopoeia]

A fire of zhat size is an incredible failure by all actors involved.

Re: audio;

[livingmyths]

That was kind of scary. But they put it out.

And the rest was just so beautiful!

Re: audio;

[prosopopoeia]

Gaudy, I would say.

[There is just no pleasing some people...]

But appropriate enough considering zhe length of our eclipse.

Re: audio;

[livingmyths]

[giggles]

Sometimes that's just more fun!

Re: audio;

[prosopopoeia]

Yes, yes.

[Nope.]

Per'aps there will be a bit less drama next time.

Re: audio;

[livingmyths]

Oh gosh.

I don't know if I want another all dark day. That was scary.

audio;

[prosopopoeia]

Zhere is more dark in zhe world zhan not.

[Space was dark. Dark and endless.]

Re: audio;

[livingmyths]

Yes, but I like it to stay where it belongs.

audio;

[prosopopoeia]

Zhe sun will burn out, in time. All lands are destined for shadow.

[The religion of a scientist.]

Re: audio;

[livingmyths]

That scares me.

I don't want to think about that.
