Winter log

Who: Everyone!
What: Open Log
When: December
Where: The Hunter's Lodge
Warnings: N/A
Notes: This is a mingle log, so people are free to set up their own TLs under it. So tag in and tag around!


Snow has fallen outside and while it's not heavy it's set just enough down to gently cover the wooden benches and ground outside. The chairs have been removed but the lanterns are still out and lit (as well as the little lights that have been replaced with more festive ones) if people want to walk around outside and have private chats among the snow, the trees and the lighting.


Potluck - Food is all around. Got a story about how the food you brought is part of a long standing family tradition? So much the better! But Ignis for his part has been researching and working on bringing the foods he's heard about. So here you'll find an appetizer platter along with a cream cheese tree, turkey, ham, his version of the Crown City roast, stuffing balls, roasted potatoes and roasted vegetables, and of course a few different desserts.

So you can find him making sure the table is decked out in christmas colours and full of food. But as he sets the last appetizer tree down on the table, he nods. "Quite glad to see that you could make it."


Trim a tree A small group of freshly cut green trees are sitting in a corner with room to go around the back. Simple lights are already in place, but there are ornaments with hooks sitting in silent invitation to decorate the tree and gather around as well as different coloured garland too.

But there's plenty of supplies and being able to decorate a tree with Nida last year was all sorts of fun as it will be again this year. So the advisor is definitely happy that nature can come inside at least temporarily.

Ignis stands back and takes a look at the trees with a satisfied sort of nod. "I suppose after the holiday, I will see about replanting it outside." Turning to his guest, there's an easy smile. "It won't do to simply throw it away do you think?"


Gift exchange - Gifts aren't required, but people are free to do so. This can be as private or as public as wished! The royal strategist is busy arranging gifts under the tree, trying to make some sense as to how they should be grouped, so he's on his knees trying to keep the order straight. As soon as someone approaches, he acknowledges their presence with a smile. "Would you mind handing me that blue wrapped gift sitting on the chair right next to you?"


Wild card- Dancing? Snowball fights outside? Feel free to make up a thing here!

"Our best is all we can ever give. And I think it might be all you need."

Though Rhy laughed in delight at the idea that the young man might want his friend to meet Rhy. Granted he didn't think that was how places like this worked, but he could accept the sentiment.

"I should like that."

“Thanks, Mr. Rhy.” He responded quietly, because that was nice to hear. Mono honestly wasn’t sure sometimes, after things had been moving so fast and gone so wrong last time he was in his world. Whatever happened next, it was nice to think someone was sure he’d be good enough to fix things.

He offered Rhy a tilted smile and one of his soundless giggles as the man laughed. It was nice to hear people laughing, after all. “Great! Then someday, maybe.” He grinned.

Mono didn’t really understand how these worlds worked at all, but he liked the idea...

"That's all one can hope for," Rhy smiled. "Now, let us see about getting something fun to do right now."

He offers a hand out to his friend as a quiet suggestion that they could go together.
monochromatically: (Let’s leave together?)

Something fun, huh? Mono didn’t take long to reach out and take Rhy’s hand. It was one thing that was almost second nature now, from his time with Six. You took your friend’s hand and hung on so you didn’t get separated. “Okay! I like the sound of that.” He hurried along. “I dunno what might be fun to do with this stuff, though. I’m still trying to figure it out.”

wrap this?

"We'll figure it out together. There has to be something," Rhy promised. He'd find it, if nothing else then he'd find it for Mono's sake.

"You know maybe we can find a good place to play hide and seek."
monochromatically: (Sneaky sneaking together)

Sure!

Mono certainly appreciated Rhy’s word, and he sounded more than a little pleased at the suggestion. “I’m really good at hiding! I bet there’s a lot of space around here to play that.” He commented, definitely sounding quite confident on the matter. Rhy would undoubtedly be spending a lot of time looking if he were the seeker… Poor man.
