I hate to be Debbie Downer, but I'd just like to point out: Valentine's day? Pretty much nothing to do with candy or cute stuffed toys. There actually wasn't even a Saint Valentine. I mean, there were three. And the holiday? Like they say, it's all fun and games until someone gets maryred. Just sayin'.
Also, like most early Christian holidays, the date was chosen because it corresponded with a Roman pagan feast. The better to convert you with, my dear. In this case we're talking about Lupercalia, which is closer to the hearts and roses concept but kind of misses the mark on wholesomeness and family friendly.
Chinese New Year, however? Totally rocksome.
So, now that I've ruined the holiday for you, let me say: welcome to the city, new people! Enjoy your stay, you'll be gone by the end of the weekend. Check out the lanterns and fireworks, they pretty much kick behind.
Private to Thomas Raith; Visible to Willow; Harry; Mercedes.
Happy birthday. I love you and nothing you say is gonna change that, Tommy. So don't make me come sing outside your window again.
[OOC: Fourth wall away. She knows about her death, so pretty much anything is go.]
