What's...Valentine's Day? It seems like it has something to do with girls and gifts...but that's all I've really got on it. Oh! And that some people really like it and others really hate it.

...Do other worlds have more "days" for different things? Are they "holidays"? I've seen that term tossed around, too.

Eh? You don't have holidays in your world?

Valentine's Day is a day for lovers. In Japan, girls give chocolates to guys they like and then the boys give chocolates to the girls they like one month later on White Day. It's really... kind of pointless if you don't have a special someone. But it can be a day for friendship too! I don't know why giving chocolates can't just be platonic...

[0_equals_100]

None that I know of.

That's pretty cool! Though, I don't know what chocolate is, either... It's...weird, but interesting nonetheless!

[toiletbowl_maou]

....Y-You don't know what chocolate is?! S-Simon-san, if we can find any chocolate in this city, you're going to have to try some. It's by far one of the best candies ever invented!

[0_equals_100]

Ha ha, that's fine by me! I don't mind trying new things.

ROFL, OOPS, SAID THE SAME THING AS MAOU. EXACTLY. I FEEL LAME. ; w ;''

Valentine's Day is a day where girls give the guys they fancy gifts~ But there are just "friendship" chocolates, too.

And White Day, next month on the fourteenth, is when guys give the girls they fancy and the girls who gave them gifts, gifts back~ And there are still "friendship" chocolates.

You really don't know this stuff? About holidays?

XD it gives Simon something else to ask about~

[0_equals_100]

Ohh...so are you from Japan, too?

Nope! My world is kinda boring compared to all the other stuff going on in the other worlds...customs-wise, that is.

W-Well, that's a better way of looking at it~ ; w ;

[one_is_hikaru]

Yup~ A lot of people are, here. There's even a guy who thinks he is Japan~

O, that explains it. You don't have any certain customs where you're from? That's weird.

^^

[0_equals_100]

Huh? That's...weird. Is Japan popular?

Not really...the stuff in it is pretty different, though. Beastmen, Gunmen (giant robots, basically), giant drills (eh heh, that's probably just me, though), underground cities, a weirdo surface population limit, things like that.

[whatthefactor]

Yes, but most holidays are zetta lame.

Valentine's Day is when girls give guys presents 4 some stupid reason, and on White Day, 03/14, is the inverse function. BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY, 03/14 is π Day.

[0_equals_100]

...what?

[whatthefactor]

Pi, the number, zetta obviously.

[0_equals_100]

...Are you speaking a different language?

[maplemaple]

Depending on what country you're from, there's different holidays that can be celebrated.

[0_equals_100]

Really? That's cool!

What kind does yours celebrate?

[maplemaple]

Specifically to my country there's Canada Day, and Remembrance Day. Also, my Thanksgiving is celebrated on a different day than America's.

Worldwide there's Christmas, New Years, and Valentines in the more commercialized and religious countries.

[0_equals_100]

So you're from...Canada or Remembrance? Weird names, but I'm not one to talk, I guess.

Wow...your world sounds so interesting.

[dothefusion]

Valentine's Day is when girls give boys chocolate, either because they like 'em or because they're friends. At least, that's what Sora told me.

[0_equals_100]

Uh huh. So does your "country" not have the White Day thing?

[dothefusion]

...White Day? What's that?

[0_equals_100]

Okay! So you're one of the ones not from Japan! This is cool, I'm learning new stuff about other places...

Well, from what I've been told, it's a day that's like Valentine's Day only reversed. And it's in Japan.
