[Vicious rarely addresses the castle at large, and certainly not so close together, but there wasn't much else going on, and his favorite pastime was on hold until he'd healed up better. So why not relieve some of the boredom by poking at the residents?]

Did you enjoy your archaic holiday?

[There'd certainly been enough chatter about it, even if the Castle hadn't done anything to actually promote it]

I wonder what you could have found to be 'thankful' for.

Archaic?

[He's curious at that.]

Re: [Written]

[nothingtobelieve]

From some standpoints. Is it still relevant for you?

[Written]

[ofthursday]

It is still celebrated at the point in time I am from, yes.

I presume it is not for you.

[Written]

[nothingtobelieve]

No. The earth you would likely recognize no longer exists.

What year is it?

Re: [Written]

[nothingtobelieve]

2071. Or it was, when I was home last.

[Written]

[ofthursday]

Oh. That is not a great deal of time in the future.

[At least as far as Castiel's concerned, but he's nearly a billion years old so his idea of time is a little messed up.]

[Written]

[nothingtobelieve]

Things can change suddenly.

[Although he doesn't have a real frame of reference for just how big the time gap might be. People seem to come from all over. In that, at least, the castle doesn't seem to play favorites.]

They can. What is it like in your world?

[Written]

[nothingtobelieve]

No one lives on Earth if they can help it, for one.

[He has no reason to be tight-lipped about the subject, other than habit. Then again, it's a big topic to cover]

[Written]

[ofthursday]

Why not?

[He's definitely curious.]

[Written]

[nothingtobelieve]

There was an accident. Most of it is uninhabitable.

[Written]

[ofthursday]

What type of accident?

[Written]

[nothingtobelieve]

A hyperspace gate malfunction damaged the moon.

[Written]

[ofthursday]

Oh. Strange.

[sworn]

[Dryly] It saddens me that there are some who could find nothing to be thankful.

[nothingtobelieve]

If you are self-reliant, thanks is unnecessary.

[Dictated]

[cant_breathe_no_heir]

There are multiple reasons to be thankful.

[Dictated]

[nothingtobelieve]

In this place?

[Dictated]

[cant_breathe_no_heir]

Quite so.

Some of us were in dire circumstances back home. This is much more amiable.

[Dictated]

[nothingtobelieve]

They must be dire, to prefer the manipulations of an unknown force.
