Sylvi Thorsblood

Today at 4:30 PM
"Is it truly that uncommon?"
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 4:30 PM
"I don't come here very regularly. I can only talk about my experience. She's the oldest I've seen."
Zephri Barathos
BOT
Today at 4:34 PM
"I think it's because usually teenagery people come here...."
"And a lot of people don't age fast like humans"
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 4:37 PM
"I think most of the adults go to clubs and bars."
Sylvi Thorsblood
BOT
Today at 4:38 PM
"That is understanable. I try to split my time between here, and the Grey Raven as much as possibile."
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 4:40 PM
"I can't go because the school refuses to label me as an adult."
Sylvi Thorsblood
BOT
Today at 4:43 PM
"Er. Forgive me but, are you an adult? It is a little difficult to tell."
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 4:44 PM
"I'm legally a minor because my emotional age doesn't stay consistent."
"I don't see myself as any age, but I find I've taken care of myself for years. I can do it again."
Zephri Barathos

Sela (Adult/Keen)

"So a teenager?"
Zephri Barathos

"Yep!"
Sela (Adult/Keen)

Sela (Adult/Keen)

Squirms

"How so?"

"its soft"
Sela (Adult/Keen)

"Most chairs are meant to be comfortable to sit in."
Kalik Skyff

Today at 5:16 PM
He walks in...dressed like what a space villain from an 80s cartoon would look like. Nice high collar cape.
Ragno (Saber)
BOT
Today at 5:16 PM
"Hmm...that's what the school says" tilts head
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 5:17 PM

Ragno (Saber)

Looks at Kalik curiously
Kalik Skyff
BOT
Today at 5:19 PM

Quiet chittery spider noises
Kalik Skyff

Today at 5:20 PM

Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 5:20 PM
"That's how I naturally look."
Kalik Skyff

Slides off the beanbag and sits on the floor
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 5:23 PM
"Thank you. That's one of the nicer comments I've gotten on my appearance."
Kalik Skyff
BOT
Today at 5:24 PM
"Really? That's surprising to hear."
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 5:24 PM
"I've been called many mean things because I don't look human."
Ragno (Saber)
BOT
Today at 5:25 PM
Tilts head
Kalik Skyff
BOT
Today at 5:25 PM
He frowns a bit. "That's unfortunate but I'm sure those folks were just jealous of your looks."
Ragno (Saber)
BOT
Today at 5:26 PM
Quietly observing and listening
Kalik Skyff
BOT
Today at 5:26 PM
"Or just have very bad taste." Snorts
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 5:26 PM
"They're likely scared. But I guess that can go under bad taste." Smiles a little.
Kalik Skyff
BOT
Today at 5:26 PM
waves to Ragno. "Hello to you as well."
Ragno (Saber)
BOT
Today at 5:27 PM
"Hello"
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 5:35 PM
"Are you new to the center?" to Ragno.
Kalik Skyff

Today at 5:39 PM
"Ah, right. My name is Kalik by the way."
"Kalik of The Stars." Does a pose
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 5:41 PM
"I'm Sela. I have no title."
Kalik Skyff
BOT
Today at 5:41 PM
"That's fine. It is nice to meet you Sela."
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 5:42 PM
"It's nice to meet you as well, Kalik of the Stars."
Ragno (Saber)
BOT
Today at 5:44 PM
"I am"
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 5:47 PM
"I thought so. You seemed too confused by the beanbags."
Kalik Skyff
BOT
Today at 5:50 PM
"Well welcome to the community center. It is...." He just looks around
"Community."
Ragno (Saber)
BOT
Today at 5:52 PM
Tilts head "they were to soft....like the bed in my dorm"
Looks to Kalik "does it represent the whole island then?"
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 5:53 PM
"It's only one part of the island."
Kalik Skyff
BOT
Today at 5:54 PM
"No. Not at all. It's just a meeting place for people to hang out and chat."
Ragno (Saber)
BOT
Today at 5:58 PM
Chittering noises. "So.....a sample of the common"
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 5:59 PM
"A sample mostly consisting of the younger islanders."
Kalik Skyff
BOT
Today at 6:01 PM
"I think it's a good spot. There is a park right outside. Lots of people you can bump into there as well."
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 6:10 PM
"The park is nice. Sometimes I sit there and people watch."
Kalik Skyff
BOT
Today at 6:11 PM
"You people watch?"
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 6:13 PM
"It's the easiest way to understand people and their behaviors."
Kalik Skyff
BOT
Today at 6:14 PM
"Ah, are you familiarize yourself with e-arthling culture?"
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 6:15 PM
"Earthling? No. This isn't Earth. I'm trying to understand how to act like a normal person here."
Kalik Skyff
BOT
Today at 6:17 PM
Blinks and then nods. "That's what I meant. Slip of the tongue." Shrugs.
"Are you taking classes for it or are you just moving at your own pace?"
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 6:18 PM
"I'm taking classes for it, but I plan to argue that I should be considered an independent."
Kalik Skyff
BOT
Today at 6:27 PM
"Huh, you are not already independent?"
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 6:27 PM
Pouts. "No. I live at the school."
Kalik Skyff
BOT
Today at 6:29 PM
Taps his chin. "I see."
"What's their reasoning for making you live at the school exactly? That you aren't a normal person?"
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 6:33 PM
"My emotional age isn't consistent. They're worried that when faced with trouble I'll react impulsively and childishly."
"... Or animalistically."
Kalik Skyff
BOT
Today at 6:35 PM
"I suppose that is a reasonable concern."
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 6:35 PM
"I understand the rules of the island well enough to avoid that."
Mysterious Man
BOT
Today at 6:38 PM
Steps into the community center, a large wooden staff in hand.
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 6:39 PM
Looks at the Mysterious Man and waves. "Hi."
Kalik Skyff
BOT
Today at 6:40 PM
Nods to the Mysterious man. "Hello there."
Mysterious Man
BOT
Today at 6:41 PM
Seems cheery as he nods to the two of them. "This is the community center...? I was told there were usually people around here, but I'm not sure I found the right place."
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 6:42 PM
"This is the Community Center. It's late, so people might be home preparing dinner or for bed." :|c "Unless they're nocturnals, then they are waking up."
"Do you want more people here?"
Mysterious Man
BOT
Today at 6:43 PM
"Oh, I just enjoy having people around." Comes inside properly, sets his staff by the wall, and takes a seat on one of the chairs.
Father Hadley
BOT
Today at 6:45 PM
Walks inside.
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 6:45 PM
Nods slowly. "Are you Santa Claus? Kris Kringle? Christkind?"
Kalik Skyff
BOT
Today at 6:45 PM
"They could also be at a ba-"
Father Hadley
BOT
Today at 6:45 PM
Stops dead and is staring at...what the hell is that Father Christmas?
Mysterious Man
BOT
Today at 6:46 PM
"Oh no, none of those. My name is Dzmer Pap."
Kalik Skyff
BOT
Today at 6:46 PM
"....he does look like him a bit."
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 6:46 PM
... "That's so disappointing."
Arno Thorndrake (male)
BOT
Today at 6:46 PM
Wanders in, kinda stops at stares at the mystery man, glances at Sela
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 6:46 PM
:sad:
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 6:47 PM
Seems taken aback. "You're... disappointed?"
Father Hadley
BOT
Today at 6:47 PM
"I think... you may be a few weeks late."
Arno Thorndrake (male)
BOT
Today at 6:47 PM
"Uh....hello sir?"
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 6:48 PM
"Santa Claus is a prominent figure in human soceities on Earth. He was very relevant lately. I thought you might be the one who gave out the mysterious gifts."
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 6:48 PM
Nods to Arno. "Evening, young one."
Kalik Skyff
BOT
Today at 6:48 PM
Waves to Arno and Hadley
Arno Thorndrake (male)
BOT
Today at 6:48 PM
Blinks "Good evening.....you wouldn't happen to have given out gifts anonymous last month?"
Father Hadley
BOT
Today at 6:49 PM
Waves in return.
Vera (Rina)
BOT
Today at 6:49 PM
Slips in.
Kalik Skyff
BOT
Today at 6:49 PM
"Well Dzmer Pap. I am Kalik of The Stars."
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 6:49 PM
"Well, of course I did. That's my job."
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 6:50 PM
::confused~1:
Arno Thorndrake (male)
BOT
Today at 6:50 PM
Blinks, wondering if this is a prank, glances at Sela
Kalik Skyff
BOT
Today at 6:50 PM
Blinks. "Wait...so you...aren't Santa but you gave out gifts and also looks a bit like Santa?"
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 6:51 PM
Looks at Arno, confused.
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 6:51 PM
"Ah, I assume you're not originally from Earth?" To Kalik. "There are a wide variety of cultures with different gift giving traditions. Santa is simply the most commercialized one."
Vera (Rina)
BOT
Today at 6:51 PM
“ Hiiii~~” Waves to no one in particular
Arno Thorndrake (male)
BOT
Today at 6:51 PM
"Sir did you alter or add any gifts during the city's secret Santa event?"
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 6:52 PM
"But I listed multiple different cultures..."
Father Hadley
BOT
Today at 6:52 PM
"So I can assume you're some sort of Good December Man?"
Kalik Skyff
BOT
Today at 6:52 PM
"Accurate assumption. I never heard of a Dzmer Pop."
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 6:52 PM
"Oh, straight to the point? I did. I have in the past, to." @ Arno
Vera (Rina)
BOT
Today at 6:52 PM
Pouts. “ If that really is case, you totally skimped out on me and Sylvi.”
Arno Thorndrake (male)
BOT
Today at 6:53 PM
"Oh my, me and a friend have been trying to find who did it.....so you altered this?" shows him the song book
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 6:53 PM
Frowns at Vera. "That seems rather greedy to say."
Looks at the book, and shakes his head. "That's not my handiwork, no."
Vera (Rina)
BOT
Today at 6:55 PM
“ Pfft... I’m just saying we’d be more appreciative than certain others.”
Father Hadley
BOT
Today at 6:55 PM
"What about the dirt roads? Are you involved with that at all?"
Arno Thorndrake (male)
BOT
Today at 6:55 PM
Sighs "the mystery continues"
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 6:55 PM
Is thinking very deeply about this. "I'm sorry to interrupt... should I give you a gift? Cookies? Milk?"
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 6:55 PM
"Dirt roads...?" Seems confused.
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 6:56 PM
Slowly shrinks in size.
Father Hadley
BOT
Today at 6:56 PM
He just kind of seems to mark down that reaction in his head. "I see."
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 6:56 PM
Looks to Sela and shakes her head. "That isn't needed, no. Traditionally I would hear songs from children-" Double takes at the shrinking. "Are... you a child?" Boy is he not certain about that.
Arno Thorndrake (male)
BOT
Today at 6:56 PM
Actually looking surprisingly stressed
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 6:56 PM
Very quickly. "No I'm not... But I can sing you a song if you'd like."
Vera (Rina)
BOT
Today at 6:56 PM
“ Mhmm. Totally messed up the traffic today.”
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 6:57 PM
Looks to Arno. "Is everything alright?"
Arno Thorndrake (male)
BOT
Today at 6:58 PM
"Mysterious enchanted gifts....strange supernatural events....so much going on with no answers"
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 6:58 PM
"Is a gift being enchanted unusual for this island...?"
Father Hadley
BOT
Today at 6:59 PM
"Had at least three separate calls for people asking me to investigate their occurrences personally." He groans. "I'm just hoping this whole thing is over soon."
Vera (Rina)
BOT
Today at 6:59 PM
“ Personally, I don’t ask where my gifts come from unless I’m looking to return them~”
Kalik Skyff
BOT
Today at 6:59 PM
"It's not unusual compared to other things."
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 6:59 PM
Falls silent, their form shaking/wavering a little.
Kalik Skyff
BOT
Today at 7:00 PM
He just glances over to Sela. "Are you alright?"
Arno Thorndrake (male)
BOT
Today at 7:00 PM
"Sela are you ok?"
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 7:00 PM
Enters
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 7:01 PM
"I'm fine. There are a lot of people and a lot of questions. It's overwhelming."
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 7:02 PM
Immediately hones in on fake santa ".......the fuck? You real?"
Kalik Skyff
BOT
Today at 7:04 PM
"I see. I can understand being overwhelmed."
Arno Thorndrake (male)
BOT
Today at 7:04 PM
@Sela Nods "yes, theres a lot going on"
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 7:04 PM
Looks up at Hakon, raises an eyebrow. "Yes? I would assume you are real as well."
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 7:04 PM
Texting something and snickering
Kalik Skyff
BOT
Today at 7:04 PM
"This is probably going to be a think for the rest of your night." @Dzmer
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 7:05 PM
"Where can I find you for when I'm ready with a song?" to Dzmer
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 7:05 PM
"I can't say I'm surprised. I was warned by Baba Noel that the island could be... strange, at times."
Arno Thorndrake (male)
BOT
Today at 7:05 PM
Looking at his song book, sighing a little
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 7:06 PM
Considers Sela's question, then shakes his head. "I'm afraid I can't offer any location. I'll be leaving tomorrow."
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 7:06 PM
:horrorneko: "Why? Where are you going?"
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 7:07 PM
"Home. I only visit the island for vacation and to see friends."
Arno Thorndrake (male)
BOT
Today at 7:07 PM
"To answer you're earlier question, these gifts were just strange"
"Selas gift to me was altered when it shouldn't be possible to alter it"
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 7:08 PM
"Shouldn't be possible in what way?"
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 7:08 PM
Raises hand. "I'm Sela. I store my stuff inside of me."
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 7:09 PM
"So....why the hell do you like Santa?"
SaberToday at 7:09 PM
((Look like))
Sylvi Thorsblood
BOT
Today at 7:09 PM
Flies inside, and just takes a look around. "Good evening everyone."
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 7:10 PM
Looks at Hakon, blinking at him. "It would be more accurate to say he looks like me."
Kalik Skyff
BOT
Today at 7:10 PM
Nods to Sylvi
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 7:10 PM
"Sylvi"
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 7:10 PM
Waves at Sylvi
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 7:12 PM
"So...you predate the Santa legend? Probably inspired it?"
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 7:12 PM
"It wouldn't be inaccurate to say I was a component part, yes."
Sylvi Thorsblood
BOT
Today at 7:12 PM
Just squints at Dzmer. Before muttering something in Old Norse.
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 7:13 PM
Smirks and Sylvi
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 7:14 PM
Floats tentatively closer to Dzmer. "What does your staff do?"
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 7:15 PM
"Ah, that?" Gestures to the staff against the wall. "Lets me part the snow, mostly, so I can get around."
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 7:15 PM
"Ok so the reindeer and the tiny weird elves....that come from you?"
Kalik Skyff
BOT
Today at 7:16 PM
He quietly heads out
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 7:16 PM
"No, I don't have reindeer or... elves." Blinks at Hakon.
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 7:16 PM
"Oh!" Shoves a hand into their stomach. Pulls out a snow globe. Shakes it, so snowflakes start falling around them. It doesn't stick on the ground. "Can you part these?"
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 7:16 PM
"That is....mildly disappointing" snickers
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 7:16 PM
"Oh, I could do that without my staff, since it's linked to my magic." He waves a hand, and the snow falling from the snowglobe parts.
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 7:17 PM
Pauses. "So this snow globe comes from you?"
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 7:17 PM
"Yes, it was my gift."
Sylvi Thorsblood
BOT
Today at 7:17 PM
Just lets out a sigh. "Hakon, has it occurred to you that just because he has a big bread, and is on the older side, it does not mean he is 'Santa'." Says Santa with slight disdian.
Arno Thorndrake (male)
BOT
Today at 7:18 PM
"Wait....but the book alteration wasn't?"
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 7:18 PM
Thinks. "Thank you, but what about Arno's gift? That didn't come from you?"
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 7:18 PM
"No, that wasn't from me. I don't have any real ability with music, even if I enjoy listening to it."
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 7:18 PM
Smiles. Just a little. "Interesting."
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 7:18 PM
"Look he probably inspired the legend...and I just told you that to make you come here"
Arno Thorndrake (male)
BOT
Today at 7:19 PM
Sigh and buries his face in his hands
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 7:19 PM
"Maybe it comes from one of the other components of Santa," they tell Arno.
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 7:20 PM
"I don't know it would specifically be someone you could connect to Santa, but something along those lines."
Father Hadley
BOT
Today at 7:20 PM
"You wouldn't happen to know the name of someone who would be likely to have made the alteration, do you?"
Arno Thorndrake (male)

"Well, I suppose I wonder what a 'mortal creation' exactly is."
Hakon Atreo

"Hmm.....I guess the question is, do they exist because human's believe in them? Or did they exist without the belief?"
"....did that sound stupid?"
Sylvi Thorsblood

Nods. "Exactly. If say, they would cease to exsist without mortals, then they are a mortal creation. However if they do not need mortals to exsist, then they are not."
Sela (Adult/Keen)

Today at 8:46 PM
"Ah. That makes more sense. In that case, if enough people believe in a figure of Christmas, why couldn't that figure become real? Or be split into many different figures because of differing interpretations?"
Hakon Atreo

Today at 8:48 PM
"People from different cultures see the same figure.....they view him differently...and so the different versions pop up"
Sylvi Thorsblood

Kalik Skyff

Sela (Adult/Keen)

"That is....mildly disappointing" snickers
Dzmer Pap

Pauses. "So this snow globe comes from you?"
Dzmer Pap

Today at 7:17 PM
"Yes, it was my gift."
Sylvi Thorsblood

Today at 7:18 PM
Thinks. "Thank you, but what about Arno's gift? That didn't come from you?"
Dzmer Pap

"Yeah that"
Sela (Adult/Keen)

Today at 7:45 PM
Looks at Dzmer. Then at the log. "I thought this was Dzmer's pet."
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 7:46 PM
Kinda leans on Sylvi a little
Dzmer Pap

Today at 7:47 PM
"Oh no, a.. professional associate. He isn't related to the norse. Wrong side of Europe."
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 7:47 PM
"He's a person?"
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 7:47 PM
"Thank fuck"
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 7:47 PM
Makes a little 'sort of' motion. "He is a gift giver."
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 7:48 PM
"Oh. Oh right, my question earlier: how do you become a component of Santa Claus? How do you become an official gift giving entity?"
Sylvi Thorsblood
BOT
Today at 7:48 PM
Just looks back and forth between Dzmer and the Log a few times.
Unknown... Log
BOT
Today at 7:48 PM
Makes happy noises and goes to sniff at Sela's feet. Or at least mimes sniffing.
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 7:49 PM
"Well... I suppose it would be the same question for any sort of mythological being. How does one become a god? How does one become a mythological hero? The same sort of thing. You become ingrained in the public's mind."
Sylvi Thorsblood
BOT
Today at 7:49 PM
"Does.. he have a name?"
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 7:49 PM
@Sylvi "Ever seen shit like this in Aagard?"
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 7:49 PM
:|c "Breaking into people's houses is a good way to become ingrained in the public's mind..."
"... Or dreams!"
Dzmer Pap

Today at 7:50 PM
"Oh, certainly. This is Tió de Nadal. You can just call him Tió."
Sylvi Thorsblood
BOT
Today at 7:50 PM
Stiffens up a little. "One can become a mythological hero through great deeds. That much cannot be disputed." @Dzmer
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 7:52 PM
Shakes his head at Sela. "That's one of the less respectable things. Certainly not all of the gift givers do that sort of thing. I come where I am invited, for example."
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 7:52 PM
"This... is difficult. Being praised and having people be happy about your existence sounds nice, however."
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 7:53 PM
@Sylvi Fake gasp "who are you and what have you done with Sylvi?"
Sylvi Thorsblood
BOT
Today at 7:54 PM
Raises an eyebrow at Hakon "I am still the same person, I assure you that."
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 7:55 PM
"You....you need to learn humor, when we got here you scoffed at the idea of mortals reaching mythical levels"
Tió de Nadal

Today at 7:56 PM
Sniffs around the room before settling at Dzmer's feet.
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 7:56 PM
Reaches down and adjusts the blanket.
Sylvi Thorsblood
BOT
Today at 7:56 PM
Shakes her head. "I said mortals could never achieve the level of a god Hakon. There are plenty of great Norse heroes of Legend."
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 7:57 PM
Watches the two bicker. Looks to Dzmer. "What brought you to the Community Center and not elsewhere?"
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 7:57 PM
"Not the way I remember you saying it but whatever"
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 7:57 PM
"I thought it would be enjoyable to see more people before I go. I don't get out as much as I'd like."
Sylvi Thorsblood
BOT
Today at 7:58 PM
Huffs. "If I remember correctly, you were trying to compare mortal kings to Odin."
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 7:59 PM
"On a very base level"
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 7:59 PM
"That sounds..." :|c "Not sad. I don't like having too much attention on me like there was on you earlier. I think I'd leave immediately if that happened to me."
Hakon Atreo

Today at 8:02 PM
Fiddles with something in his pocket
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 8:03 PM
"Truly, I wouldn't seek to become a gift giver. We're a dying breed, now."
Sylvi Thorsblood
BOT
Today at 8:08 PM
Just pulls away from Hakon. "If I may ask, where are you going? @Dzmer
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 8:09 PM
"Oh, I have a home in Armenia. It's a lovely place. Beautiful in the winter."
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 8:09 PM
Looks confused. "Wouldn't making more people one make you less of a dying breed?"
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 8:10 PM
"Not gonna move here? Like with magic on Earth dying and all that?"
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 8:10 PM
"We'll all have to move here before the magic fades, and once we can no longer give the gifts to children, what are we, really?" Looks a bit crestfallen.
Sylvi Thorsblood
BOT
Today at 8:10 PM
Small laugh. "I understand why you said wrong side of Europe."
Tió de Nadal
BOT
Today at 8:11 PM
Barks, and nudges against Dzmer's leg.
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 8:11 PM
"Hmm..."
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 8:12 PM
"What about giving gifts to children here? Or children from space?"
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 8:14 PM
"Oh, I wouldn't do well in space. I'm a fairly local figure. Children here... well, we can, but there are too many of us and too few children. Certainly a downsizing for most of us."
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 8:15 PM
"Have you...thought of looking at other realms?"
"the island has that portal hub"
Sylvi Thorsblood
BOT
Today at 8:15 PM
"Surely there is some way. There might not be as much of need of Valkyries such as myself, but we still exist Mortals will always look to people such as yourself."
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 8:17 PM
Yawns and stretches
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 8:20 PM
"I'm afraid it wouldn't be the same. I suppose I'm content to let things play out as they have been>'
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 8:21 PM
"Well....hopefully it works out"
Sylvi Thorsblood
BOT
Today at 8:21 PM
"Indeed."
Tió de Nadal
BOT
Today at 8:22 PM
Barks again, and runs around in a circle.
Dzmer Pap
BOT
Today at 8:23 PM
"I suppose that means it's time for me to go." Gets up and fetches his staff, offering a nod to the group. "IT was nice to meet you all. Sela... perhaps I'll see you next year for your song."
Sylvi Thorsblood
BOT
Today at 8:23 PM
"A pleasure meeting you as well."
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 8:23 PM
"I don't like that idea." Starts floating around in circles with Tió.
"Oh. Bye. You'll see me next year."
Tió de Nadal
BOT
Today at 8:24 PM
Barks, nudges against Selas... cloud, waiting for pets before he goes.
Hakon Atreo

Today at 8:25 PM
@Sylvi "So......"
Sela (Adult/Keen)

Today at 8:25 PM
Pets Tió. :3 "Bye."
Sylvi Thorsblood

"Yes?"
Dzmer Pap

Exits the community center.
Tió de Nadal

Leaves the community center, barking all the while.
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 8:26 PM
Pulls out a silver feather necklace
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 8:26 PM
"I hope they still exist by next year. I'd be unhappy if they gave up and stopped existing."
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 8:27 PM
"Yeah....knowing that they're real is kinda nice"
Sylvi Thorsblood
BOT
Today at 8:30 PM
Just kind of frowns. "I suppose. Though I hesitate to believe he truly is a Santa esque figure." Glances at the necklace.
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 8:30 PM
Clears his throst
"He's Santa enough"
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 8:31 PM
"Why don't you believe? I don't think he is Santa, just a component."
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 8:31 PM
"Like how gods have different aspects"
"Like how Woden and Odin are the same"
"Or....something like that"
Sylvi Thorsblood
BOT
Today at 8:36 PM
"They are the same person, Hakon." Thinks for a moment. "I suppose so.. More of an influence the Odin at least." Grumbles something in Old Norse.
"I just struggle to believe that the mortal embodiment of Christmas could actually exist. There is almost no foundation for it."
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 8:38 PM
"Why not? There are many personifications of concepts here already."
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 8:38 PM
"Theres probably stranger things" gently nudges Sylvi
@Sela "yeah that makes sense "
Sylvi Thorsblood
BOT
Today at 8:40 PM
"The personification of something, and a mortal creation are not the same." Glances over to Hakon after the nudge. "Yes?"
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 8:40 PM
Just slowly hands the necklace to her
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 8:40 PM
"... I'm confused. Your logic doesn't make sense." Looks at the necklace, then at the two. "Am I interrupting something?"
Sylvi Thorsblood
BOT
Today at 8:41 PM
"How so?" @Sela
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 8:41 PM
"Nah you're good"

Sylvi Thorsblood

Today at 8:41 PM
Slowly takes the necklace from Hakon, and examines it.
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 8:42 PM
"Well, I suppose I wonder what a 'mortal creation' exactly is."
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 8:43 PM
"Hmm.....I guess the question is, do they exist because human's believe in them? Or did they exist without the belief?"
"....did that sound stupid?"
Sylvi Thorsblood
BOT
Today at 8:45 PM
Nods. "Exactly. If say, they would cease to exsist without mortals, then they are a mortal creation. However if they do not need mortals to exsist, then they are not."
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 8:46 PM
"Ah. That makes more sense. In that case, if enough people believe in a figure of Christmas, why couldn't that figure become real? Or be split into many different figures because of differing interpretations?"
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 8:48 PM
"People from different cultures see the same figure.....they view him differently...and so the different versions pop up"
Sylvi Thorsblood
BOT
Today at 8:49 PM
"But he is depicted the same way in all of them. If I say Santa, you would have a clear mental image of who that is, no?"
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 8:50 PM
"Not the same, there are differences"
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 8:50 PM
"No, not truly. I've been reading up on different versions of him. My first exposure to him was through cartoons. I didn't think about his existence until recently."
Sylvi Thorsblood
BOT
Today at 8:55 PM
"But no matter what slight differences there may be, there are still many things that stay the same."
Hakon Atreo
BOT
Today at 8:56 PM
"Might be splitting hairs a little bit there"
Sela (Adult/Keen)
BOT
Today at 8:57 PM
??? "I think... I'm too tired for this. I'm going to sleep. Bye." Shoves the snow globe back inside of their stomach.
Sylvi Thorsblood

Today at 8:59 PM
"It was nice meeting you both too. Enjoy your gift exchange." Floats out.
