Winter festival is here!

[gondoevents]

Despite the many, many distractions on the part of the people who presumably run this city, the Winter Festival is here!

Too warm for ice skating, but there is an ice sculpture contest as well as the usual animals on display (this year we have a walrus), and the many many different kinds of festival food!

Also available are many vendor booths, very good if you want a special winter coat or some other craftwork.

...do you have a problem with it, dad? *looks up at him, curious*

[turgonthewise]

It just seems sudden! That's all!

[idril]

Didn't you fall for mom pretty quick, too?

[turgonthewise]

Yes, well, your mother wasn't going to get old and die.

[idril]

Ahh... Dad... you were the one who encouraged me to mingle with and date the humans.

[turgonthewise]

Um. Er.

[idril]

And you told me that if things didn't change all of a sudden, I would have married a human anyway, remember? *not even thinking about Gel now*

[turgonthewise]

Well. Yes. That's true.

[idril]

So do you object?

[turgonthewise]

I suppose when put like that...

[idril]

I knew it! Come on, I know you like Yaban. He's wonderful!

[turgonthewise]

He's tiny.

[idril]

>.> that doesn't affect anything

[turgonthewise]

If you insist, beloved daughter.

[idril]

*hugs his arm* Please don't give him a hard time when you see him

[turgonthewise]

Certainly not, because you'll give me a harder one if I do.

[idril]

It's true, I will! *kisses his cheek*

[turgonthewise]

What a poor, oppressed father I am. *smiles down at her*

[idril]

*laughs* I love you, too, dad

[turgonthewise]

Yeah, yeah. Stay good. *quick hug*
