25-Pi (Dicated/Action)

[heal_theworld]

[Martel is staring at the pies that adorn the lobby, sipping at a cup of sweetened coffee, surprisingly. Reborn is a bad influence on her. She doesn't dare even try to eat one yet, but they do look rather delicious.]

Is this an Earth holiday where people just make pies? Or is just the castle being strange today?

...And is it safe to eat them? [She's been eying a rather good looking chocolate one.]

It's Pi day!

dictated

[heal_theworld]

...Pie Day?

[IS THIS A THING IN ASELIA AND SHE NEVER KNEW ABOUT IT?]

[not_mafia]

U-um.. I'd be careful if I were you, Martel. [It's almost never safe to eat holiday-specific food. Like ever.]

Action because Chie is all action

[pint_sized_carnivore]

[Looking around the lobby, it was obvious Chie was still new to the castle. The pies all over the lobby was tempting for the hungry girl.

But then she heard Martel ask something]

Earth holiday? Are you an alien?

[heal_theworld]

That's why I asked. Somebody has to have eaten it already.

dictated

[wilder]

No, Pi day.

Pi is a number that's a mathematical constant when calculating...stuff with circles.

[not_mafia]

Mmn, maybe.

... I wouldn't really mind coming and trying some myself, if it's safe to eat.

Action I can do~

[heal_theworld]

[She turns to look at the girl.] ...yes. I'm from a world called Aselia. Are you from Earth?

dictated

[heal_theworld]

Oh... [Sorry, she doesn't actually know higher math, Zelos. But that makes some sense.]

So the castle decided to do things with pies instead of Pi.

dictated

[wilder]

[Sob this is why he's forever the black sheep of the family]

Yep! I thought it was a clever pun!

[courageous_wit]

It's in honor of Pi Day, a celebration to honor the mathematical constant of pi. It takes place on March the fourteenth because three, one and four are the three most significant digits in pi's decimal form.

[heal_theworld]

Some of them do look really good. And they're practically all over the place.

dictated

[heal_theworld]

It is clever. Though some people still won't get it. [Like her...]

dictated

[wilder]

[a depressed sigh]

I know. I didn't even try to explain with Lloyd.

[heal_theworld]

Mmhm. Someone explained what pi was to me. It's still interesting, though. I never knew that it even existed.

dictated

[heal_theworld]

[A laugh at that.] Well, at least some people know and are able to appreciate it.

[courageous_wit]

The first official Pi Day was only about ten years ago in my time. It is fairly new in terms of "holidays".

dictated

[wilder]

Mmhmm. And the rest of you get free pie!

[heal_theworld]

...Huh. That why the castle's never done it before, I suppose. Or it just felt it needed to do something different.

[Who knew with the castle?]

[courageous_wit]

No, I don't recall reading anything on the castle doing this before. It's... interesting, but I wish we didn't have so many pies.

[not_mafia]

Really? It definitely sounds like the castle's up to something in that case.

Re: Action I can do~

[pint_sized_carnivore]

Uh, yeah. [A nervous chuckle]

I'm Chie Satonaka. What is your name?

dictated

[heal_theworld]

I don't know... Is it even safe to eat?

[heal_theworld]

There's no way we can eat all of these, if they're even safe. I'm not sure what the castle would do to them, though...

[heal_theworld]

But what would it do to them? Make you recite pi if you ate one?
