The sleigh is still there.

The boars are still there.

The smell is tisll there, and will probably be there long after they've gone.

The skeleton is still dressed in red, he's still there.

Have you been a good boy / girl / being this year?

[OOC: No, I will tag all slowtimes and tags from this post and the last one, when I'm not running around ( Read more... )

jadis, chloe sullivan, death (pterry), the triplets, guardian bob, zuko, lyrae addam

This may not be the weirdest thing Bob's seen in Milliways so far, but it'll definitely make his Top Five list.

Ho. Ho. Ho, Death says. Happy Hogswatch.

mend_and_defend January 2 2007, 21:48:52 UTC

"Happy what now?"

no_justice January 2 2007, 21:53:43 UTC

Hogswatch, he repeats. The mid winter holy festival that ensure the rising of the sun on the coming year.

Duh.

mend_and_defend January 2 2007, 21:55:50 UTC

Bob frowns. "Wait, does this have something to do with that 'Christmas' thing everyone's been talking about? Because I don't celebrate Christmas, I didn't even know what it was until I came here..."

no_justice January 2 2007, 21:57:16 UTC

Similar festival, different world, he explains. Ho. Ho. Ho.

mend_and_defend January 2 2007, 22:00:06 UTC

"Ah. So are you... Santa, then?"

It diden't look like the Santa he'd seen in Games, but...

no_justice January 2 2007, 22:02:35 UTC

Not quite, he admits. But I'm fulfilling the same aspect

mend_and_defend January 2 2007, 22:08:06 UTC

"Oh-kayyyyy."

Pardon his lack of reverence. Bob has about as much to do with the Death of the Discworld as a single kiwi fruit has to do with the Dow Jones Industrial Average.

no_justice January 2 2007, 22:12:26 UTC

So, he presses on. Have you been a good being this year?

mend_and_defend January 2 2007, 22:15:10 UTC

A year is a very long time for a sprite. Death The Hogfather has just asked Bob to account for about a third of his entire life to date.

"I think so..." he says hesitantly, after a long pause.

no_justice January 2 2007, 22:16:14 UTC

And will you continue to do so next year, and believe in the Hogfather?

mend_and_defend January 2 2007, 22:18:12 UTC

"What's a Hogfather?"

no_justice January 2 2007, 22:19:22 UTC

Tonight, he says, I am.

mend_and_defend January 2 2007, 22:20:47 UTC

"Ah."

Another long pause.

"Yes."

Although he doesn't see the point in believing in something that's, y'know, right there.

no_justice January 2 2007, 22:22:15 UTC

OK, says Death. What would you like for Hogswatch, then?
