Have we properly cataloged everything the castle has done for the holidays? Changes to the world are harder to find patterns for, but it's been consistent for holidays...

I heard we missed out on free-flow alcohol this new year's.

[heliotroping]

That was... probably for the best.

[nihilo]

I think it's rather a pity, don't you?

[heliotroping]

I'd rather avoid the mass hangover complaints...

[hard_talker]

Y'know, I'm honestly not sure. I know a couple people who'd probably have it all written down anyway because they're obsessed with research... I could ask them.

I know it's usually Earth holidays, and even then only The Big Ones.

[heliotroping]

If you could ask them, I would appreciate it. There are many people I've lost contact with, either because they went home or... other circumstances.

[hard_talker]

Yeah, sure. If Hermione hasn't already found this by the end of the day, I'll ask her for ya.

... Wait, other circumstances? [he smells a story to be told] Someone been givin' you shit?

[heliotroping]

No! No... It was my own negligence...!

Mmn, are they? I haven't been here long enough to experience the same holiday twice, but I heard that the castle makes enchanted objects and stuff every Christmas, doesn't it?

[heliotroping]

Yeah. Every year it's different, so people end up avoiding the wrong things.

Was it the same for Valentine's, too? The castle making people do... um... you know? [weird... romantic shit???]

there there

[heliotroping]

The very first one I was here for was a ball and everyone's clothes were replaced with pink and red ones, but after...

I wrote up what I could in my commonplace notebook. Let me paste it here for you. [she puts a page into the journal]

[heliotroping]

Oh, thank you! Would you mind if we use it as a base to fill in more details? I remember the first Valentine's I was here, all of our clothes were colored pink and red overnight.

[courageous_wit]

Not at all. I think personal accounts will help a great deal.

[heliotroping]

We'll need to keep it in a place that anyone can access it too...

[hard_talker]

[cue the sound of some familiar laughter] I told him you'd be all over this.

[courageous_wit]

You know me too well.

I haven't done an actual catalog, no. I'm sure someone has, though. Of course looking back through the journals to those dates are a pretty good bet since heaven forbid something happen in the castle and the journal doesn't pick it up.

[heliotroping]

Someone made a rough one [he draws an arrow up to Hermione's comment] but it doesn't have specific details.

Hmm.. But for some reason, last year we all received new journals and all of our old ones ended up in the library. There are also things in those journals I don't remember happening.

[kungfuwitch]

Yes, I remember that. I still have my old journal, though. Mine never left me, it just stopped working as anything other than a regular book.

Things you don't remember? Could they be from when you were on a loss or something like that?

[heliotroping]

That's the most likely explanation.

[cyan_maid]

[Oh gosh that is like the perfect way to her heart, ask if there's a source of information on castle nonsense. This is definitely the most cheerful Jane has been in a week and a half.]

I wouldn't know! But gosh, I would like to find out if anyone has!!

[heliotroping]

Hermione has a record! It could use some more details, but my own memory isn't reliable for this.

[cyan_maid]

Hermione...I think I might've heard that name before, at least in passing. I wonder if she needs help with anything that happened since June.
