February.

It wasn't until people started talking about Valentine's Day that I even realized that's it's February here.  I've lost track of the days, and the weather doesn't really change except for the heat and that bloody rain.

I hate February.

((OOC: Don't mind Ema's little angst-fest--in a couple of days it'll be the anniversary of SL-9, and that's a swarm

i don't even get what this valentine's day thing is about. is it special or somethin?

what'd february ever do to you?

[ms_ema_skye]

It's kind of a made-up holiday, really. Lovers celebrate the fact that they're in love by spending lots of money on each other. It's kind of ridiculous, actually.

February is just a month of not-so-great memories, that's all.

[graveyardpunk]

geez, whatever happened to just giving a flower or somethin?

not-so-great memories? boyfriend didn't spend anything on ya or what?

[ms_ema_skye]

Oh no, no, no, it's nothing like that. I'm not trivial. Besides, I've never had a boyfriend....

I was almost murdered in February, a few years ago.

[graveyardpunk]

oh. uh. that'd spoil my month, too.

er... sorry.

[ms_ema_skye]

It... it's okay. I managed to come out alive and mostly okay.

Only to end up in this hell. Quite the trade-off, huh?

[graveyardpunk]

'mostly okay' is better than 'not okay at all.' and alive is always good.

it'll be the same for this place too, hopefully. the 'okay' and the 'alive' parts, i mean.

[ms_ema_skye]

Yeah... here's hoping. Thanks.
