Hello♪ A couple of people have mentioned Thanksgiving to me and I really didn't understand the last holiday.. um, I really don't understand holidays in general. You see, we didn't do things of that nature back home. In fact, I think we only partied when we had a reason to. [ A pause. ] Well no, that's not right at all. People partied even when they weren't really supposed to.

I mean though as a group! [ Sure is awkward now. ] Hehehe, I think I'm trying to ask if there's anyone out there who's willing to explain these things to me. I don't want to be an idiot and offend the other party unknowingly.

So that's it from me! Bye bye now!

I could always give it a shot! Thanksgiving's more of an American sorta thing though, I thinks, but just ask me whatever you need!

[kaboobya.livejournal.com]

Um. Well how does one celebrate it exactly?

[lifesmegassweet.livejournal.com]

Oh, that's the easy part! You gets a bunch of people together, get some food, get some drinks, maybe even a few games here and there, and tada! You got a celebration! Of course, some of 'em have a few extra little stuffs here and there. You give presents to people on Christmas, for example!

[kaboobya.livejournal.com]

Wow, that sounds like a lot of fun. Do you think people here are going to do anything special?

[lifesmegassweet.livejournal.com]

If they aren't, I'm totally gonnas! I don't think I've ever celebrated a Thanksgiving before, so it could be fun!

[kaboobya.livejournal.com]

Well, what do you plan on doing? Maybe I can help out♪

[lifesmegassweet.livejournal.com]

Throw a megas big feast, have a bunch of people over, stuff like that! It'll be great! You know how to cook?

[nande-miria.livejournal.com]

We can help you with that one!

2/?

[ne-isaac.livejournal.com]

We were just talking about it, actually!

You see, Thanksgiving is all about thanking people for giving things. Ever since the turkey pilgrim came to America.

4/?

[ne-isaac.livejournal.com]

They traveled in a big ship from Europe!

5/?

[nande-miria.livejournal.com]

It was called the May-Flour. The turkey pilgrims brought lots of flour with them because they wanted to make bread for the natives!

6/?

[ne-isaac.livejournal.com]

But they accidentally hit a big rock though when they got here. So their boat was ruined and they were stuck.

7/?

[nande-miria.livejournal.com]

Then the natives came, and they were giant cats! The turkeys were scared, because cats eat birds!

8/?

[ne-isaac.livejournal.com]

Instead of coming to eat the poor turkeys though, they brought enough corn for everyone!

[nande-miria.livejournal.com]

So the turkeys thanked them for giving them the corn by baking them bread with the flour they brought. And that's where cornbread comes from!

[kaboobya.livejournal.com]

That's an amazing story!

[ Kaguya's so floored by it. ]

Wait. What's cornbread?

1/2

[ne-isaac.livejournal.com]

You don't know what cornbread is?!

2/2

[nande-miria.livejournal.com]

It has all the benefits of corn AND bread at the same time!

[kaboobya.livejournal.com]

Wow, that's so cool♪ [ She's practically screaming in excitement at this rate. ] How do you two know so much?

[sacred-thunder.livejournal.com]

Well, Thanksgiving is a holiday that's celebrated in a different country from the one I lived in, but I know at least the basics of it, plus many other holidays. Perhaps I could be of assistance?

[kaboobya.livejournal.com]

If you would like. I feel I've been a pretty big nuisance as of lately.

[ She won't forget the card incident.. ]

[sacred-thunder.livejournal.com]

...Nuisance?

Well, it's true that I've helped you out a couple of times since you arrived, but you shouldn't think of it as being a nuisance. I've assisted you because I chose to do so, not out of a sense of obligation.

[kaboobya.livejournal.com]

Yes, nuisance. That's what I said, wasn't it? Plus, I really do think I'm a nuisance because you've been so helpful and I haven't done anything to help you in return.

[sacred-thunder.livejournal.com]

You've offered to accompany me on anemoi hunts. I consider that a help.

[kaboobya.livejournal.com]

Yes, but I'm sure there's a lot of people here who would help you with that too.

[sacred-thunder.livejournal.com]

Perhaps so, but knowing that someone is ready to go with me should I want to head out regardless of circumstance is something reassuring to have.

[kaboobya.livejournal.com]

Well, as long as I can reassure someone here, I'm in pretty good shape!

[sacred-thunder.livejournal.com]

Yes, that's right.

But back to the original topic, would you like me to tell you what I know?

[kaboobya.livejournal.com]

Yes, if you will pretty please.

[sacred-thunder.livejournal.com]

Of course.

Anyway, Thanksgiving is a day celebrated in a specific country. Families get together and have a great feast, and give thanks for the things they're thankful for in their lives.

[kaboobya.livejournal.com]

Really? That's all they do?

[sacred-thunder.livejournal.com]

That, I'm afraid I don't know. It's certainly the impression that my country's media has.

...The hell is "Thanksgiving"? Sounds lame.








...If it's a party you're after, though, now that I can provide!

[video]

[kaboobya.livejournal.com]

Well, I do love parties. Especially when we go out on a quest together and beat up enemies!

[video]

[ichbin-cool.livejournal.com]

Beat up enemies then celebrate the victory with singing and beer? Now you're talking!
