Welcome back, users. Looks like we were able to bring you back online and tracked again...here's hoping the layers are settled now, but the readings are off the chart. We're doing our best to stabilize the city for December while we track some of the magical sources we're picking up. It may take us some time though, so please bear with us! We may be working through the holidays, too, if this keeps up. But it's okay. You opened the doors and new routes for us to check. Stay positive, users. December is a special time of the year. What's your favorite holiday tradition? You'd be surprised how thoughts shape things here. Please take care.

im excessively flattered i made the list tbh

[echoing_sutras]

we always got our buckets the day before and reheated it all in the oven on christmas day

and ur guess is as good as mine as to when it all started, it's way older than u or me. mom remembers doing it when SHE was a kid, too.

[echoing_sutras]

anywhere there's a lot of shopping goin' on is usually a good spot. we're both too young to busk around the bars and clubs, tho i guess nothin is stoppin us from trying

[jurai]

[The next text is as amused as the smile on his lips right now.]

You're sure poor enough to hold a tab over my head

[godcards]

How is that even relevant to what we’re talking about?

you're right.

but i haven't been rewarded for being a good kid yet.

[maskreant]

you can always use our place if you want the warm feel of a big house or something.

my response is also a question. why not?

[maskreant]

yeah. what did you want to eat?

i can see if Elliot wants to try making it for dinner.

[echoing_sutras]

or just weirdness in general really

[fiddlestick]

How's this?

[frostythehitman]

no but i am ancient
doesn't that count for points

[strawberrypunch]

No

I'm really bad at baking

Cookies are a good start I think there's a lot of recipes for them

[strawberrypunch]

Yea I can send it hang on

[And he will! It's not a super complex one, but it definitely requires someone to know their way around a kitchen.]

Strawberries are the best though

[fiddlestick]

Aha, actually I have a regular job playing at a club...but yeah, somewhere with shopping is probably a better idea.

How about the mall?

[jurai]

OUCH. RIGHT FOR THE KILL.

Heh guilty as charged. But it's always so tempting to just go all in, you know?


They probably drilled those habits into you, though, so you're probably fine. What do you say we collab? Maybe with your help I'll end my ooze curse

[strawberrypunch]

That's what I did last year

It was for the app

[strawberrypunch]

Yea

Memories can change things like that

What do you remember about it?

[strawberrypunch]

Do you make it too?

[strawberrypunch]

That sounds good

Hang on and I'll send you the recipe

[And sent! It's nothing too complicated, but it does require someone who is used to working in a kitchen, which Tatsuma is very not.]

There

[strawberrypunch]

Maybe I'll try them one day

It's okay even with the recipe I'm terrible

[He might have been banned from baking for a while...]

[jurai]

Disney movies

You said you're an adult. They're rated G for everyone. Thus adults can still watch em

Jeez, take notes next time


Are you always this crabby? How do you not get an ulcer?

[jurai]

Wait

Elliot? Like...Elliot Craig?

[Elliot DID say he had roommates...]

Help ol' Crow out here, have you mentioned that before and I'm just going crazy?

Talk about a coinky-dink

[frostythehitman]

not literally though
right

[ THAT CAN'T BE LEGAL....RIGHT???? ]

[fiddlestick]

Thank you! [Opening it up] Oh, this seems easy enough! I think I could make this.

[nice!]

Haha, yeah. They are really good!

[godcards]

I’m only crabby when I’m talking to idiots like you. Disney movies aren’t inherently comedic, and I am not the target audience, so I do not find them funny. It is not that hard to follow.
