[Someone is excited and seems to be getting into the spirit, dressing up with one of the hats for the celebrations as he uses the phone. Look, Nimona, he figured this out and has totally got this now! Really.]

Hey! Did you guys all hear about the celebration coming up? That Frostsinger? With the sleigh and presents? That sounds neat. I want to help figure presents and ride in a sleigh too! I mean, This is just from what I am gathering from talking to the locals? The decorations and stuff. But it seems like fun so I want to help if I can. I guess there wasn't so much of that sort of thing back home or at least that we had a big deal like this back in Elysia. Did you guys all have something like this too? The presents and decorations and all?

Some of 'em, sure. And I'm sure there are more on other continents than what I'm familiar with. [He's never really thought about it before. They kinda--Shinra kinda burned bridges when it fought to rule the entire world. He tries not to think about it too much.] So you really didn't have anything back in your world?

[historiology]

I mean, we had presents on my birthday and that sort of thing? But I guess I was also raised by seraphim so that might be why there's still a lot of stuff I am learning. About humans and their traditions and holidays and stuff.

[Not that the seraphim did not try to help and support Sorey, changing some things about the way they lived since they had found him and taken him in. But they were seraphim, elemental spirits, not humans.]

[theturksway]

Yeah, birthdays can be a celebration in some places. But you didn't have the winter stuff, huh. Oh well. Mostly just missing out on the excuse to have hot chocolate, yo.

[Haha... wait. What did the guy say?]

...did you say you were raised by seraphim?

[He totally butchers pronouncing that word.]

[historiology]

I don't think my upbringing was like most people's. But yeah. The seraphim are like elemental spirits, I guess is the best way to describe them to people not from home that aren't familiar? Mikleo, my best friend is a water seraph for example.

[theturksway]

Ah, I see.

[Reno drawled, relaxing a bit from the explanation. Still strange but less concerning.]

Ain't run into many nice elementals myself. Guess most of 'em are nicer where you're from.

[historiology]

Maybe? I can only speak for the seraphim back home. Of course, there might be different ones for you back home or others. But the ones from Elysia were great, taking me and Mikleo in when we were babies.
