[ It's been a while since Yako last posted on the network, and there's a lot she could talk about: the nightmares, friends who have passed on, detective work, how glad she is to be back in her own body. Instead, she's holding up a pumpkin to the camera, looking a little too cheerful. ]You know, I've never carved one of these before. Halloween isn't

[She sounds audibly amazed.]

Ye carve gourds in celebration of this day? Such strange new customs this world has.

Well met, Yako. Thou doest well?

It's apparently pretty common! Though the original tradition was to use turnips instead of pumpkins... Which seems pretty weird to me. [ She'd rather eat the turnip itself. ]

I've been busy, I guess. How about you, Miss Sheila?

[gavesugar]

La, I hath never seen such a task. Gourds wert kept for food in mine own time. We never dist have so many as to allow such festivity.

As busy as thee! I hath been at work, and amongst the people. Hath met many new faces as well.

Well, I think the idea is that you eat what's inside and use the rind for the decorations. [ She sounds a little unsure about that, though. ] It must seem weird to you, though.

It's always good to meet new people, isn't it? Have you met anyone who came from a time and place like your own yet?

[gavesugar]

La, I hath oft eaten the interior of gourds; they art delicious when stew'd properly. I didst not know that they art plentiful enough to be used in decoration, however.

La, 'tis! I hath briefly glimpsed a few, but none from the precise year or with the precise speech I posses.
