[Father's Day has Alice feeling a little down. Her father did only die just a few months ago after all. So she'll be hanging out around the house, not up to much other than cleaning up a bit and reading. Please feel free to bother, as she too is affected by the Father's Day event.

She does pick up the phone for a bit.]Would anyone rather forget

... It's a sorta pointless holiday for some people, innit?

[not_oflegend]

Maybe not pointless, but not a good reminder for some.

[numanstan]

Yeah. If it weren't for that mind control stuff, I wouldn't even care.

[not_oflegend]

[Guess who doesn't have a clue!]

Mind control?

[wolf_faerie]

Why? Is something wrong?

[not_oflegend]

[She sighs a bit, but there's no point in keeping secrets now.]

My dad died recently, before I came here.

[wolf_faerie]

Oh...I see. That's too bad. Did you have any other family...?

[not_oflegend]

My mom, but she's back home.

[lookingformykid]

I know I would.

[He remembers the conversation they had about her father]

How are you Alice?

[not_oflegend]

I figured I wouldn't be the only one.

I'm alright. Not too bad.

[lookingformykid]

I'm sure there's at least a few others here that share the feeling.

I'm glad to hear that.

[not_oflegend]

Thanks.

And how have you been?

[a_gentle_boy]

. . . I felt kinda the same way back a month ago.

[not_oflegend]

...mother's day?

I am sorry I am so late. =( Feel free to drop.

[a_gentle_boy]

Yeah.

[coolbowtie]

Don't know much about Father's Day, but I'm not a big fan of forgetting. Yes, it's much more important to remember.

[not_oflegend]

I don't mean forgetting entirely...just not making a big deal out of the day.

[coolbowtie]

Suppose if you had a father or were a father once, it's not such a great day. Probably rather a bad day, yeah.

[not_oflegend]

If you were with your dad, I can see how it might be nice, but seeing your dad shot and killed just a few months ago, really puts a damper on things.
