Yes. I know it's snowing in summer. I know it's fun. I know you all want to spend all day throwing it at each other. But now that there's no longer any acid rain that will kill you if you go outside, you can start coming back to school, students ( Read more... )

What do you think of this unusual phenomenon, Miss Susan?

It's unusual, of course, but not impossible. And the unusual is practically expected in this place. We will learn about unusual weather events such as this in the next week.

[[ooc: I wish I could have Susan give you a proper explanation BUT I DON'T KNOW. I do know it's possible, though - a few years ago it snowed on Christmas in some of the southern states. (Not unusual for most of the people on the Internet, yes, but I live in Australia. And here, Christmas is in summer and always ridiculously hot.)]]

Has this sort of thing ever happened on your world? I imagine weather patterns might move a bit differently on an utterly flat surface.

[[ooc: Actually, Eriol's last post was the best explanation I could come up with. Volcanoes majorly screw with weather patterns.

Summer Christmas is so weird.]]

There's always a level of unpredictability in my world. Particularly with the gods' tendencies to use excessive lightning all the time.

[[ooc: Yes, assume Susan talks about that or something. or gives some other logical explanation. EVEN GOOGLE FAILED ME, DAMMIT ):.

To me, the idea of snow at Christmas - well, at least in Aus - is just baffling. When it happened it was just..."What? Snow? On Christmas? In fucking Australia?!?!"...that was one weird day, let me tell you. And if I'd been in the areas that had snow, it would have been even weirder. Course, we snow that snow at Christmas happens, seeing as we have all the snow themed decorations and Winter Wonderland music and whatnot, even though Christmas is always a ridiculously hot day and every goes swimming and eat salad. It's a bit hard to miss, really. We just don't expect it to happen here.

...Oh, do they interfere so visibly?

[[ooc: That's really sort of hilarious that your Christmas decorations are a lie.]]

They do when people start claiming they don't exist.

[[ooc: We blame Americanism. XD]]

A world in which atheism is dangerous. How... odd.

[[ooc: I'd imagine so. XD]]

Dangerous? No, merely stupid. After all, the gods do exist, and they take considerable offense to people claiming they don't exist. You must as well just strap yourself to a lightning rod.

Of course, believing in gods is a waste of time. It gives them ideas.

Ah, so you shouldn't believe in them because they are real?

Well, I suppose there's no need for belief when there is proof provided.

What's the point? You might as well believe in a rock.

reed4context August 6 2009, 07:35:06 UTC
The rock might be a bit more benevolent.

I hope you aren't planning on believing in rocks, Eriol.

Well, that would just be silly, wouldn't it?

The sillyness of humans never ceases to amaze me.

What a curious way to phrase that.

inner_sitter August 6 2009, 11:54:06 UTC
Even more curious, a twelve-year-old who comments upon "curious phrasing".
