[Hubert turns around, puzzled but then understanding of why the woman would try to get his attention by the question. He recalls the information he heard over the journals. In summary . . . ]

The star festival known as Tanabata Day, when you write down a heartfelt wish that would then be granted by a miracle.

Supposedly, the occasion originated from the tale of Orihime and Hikoboshi, two lovers who were forbidden to see each other after neglecting their duties. Orihime's father finally allowed them to meet on the condition that they do so on the 7th day of the 7th month, and only on that day of the year.

[He stops there. The occasion and the backstory -- they should be enough.]

...that makes absolutely no sense.

[No, Hubert, no it is not enough.]

mistyarc July 13 2011, 05:22:10 UTC

[Woman, be happy that you got an answer.]

It's a tradition birthed from legend. How does it not make sense?

lina_revolution July 13 2011, 14:16:47 UTC

What were they doing that was that important? Why did Orihime let her father separate them? Why did her father put them together in the first place.

Shall I go on?

[She's one of those types who prefer more detail. No wonder. He rests a hand on his side, continuing:]

Orihime wove clothes while Hikoboshi tended to the cows in Heaven. Because she always spent her time weaving clothes, Orihime could not look for a lover. Her father arranged her to meet Hikoboshi for this reason. And as her father, his word was law when he decided against their relationship.

So he didn't know his own daughter very well, did he?

Figures. Parents are like that. Why'd they listen?

[ . . . ]

It is only natural that they would obey her guardian.

lina_revolution July 15 2011, 23:33:39 UTC

Only natural, yeah, but it's not required.

mistyarc July 16 2011, 01:13:55 UTC

They did, in the end. Moreover, if she was a princess of the sky, then her father was in a position of greater power.
