Holidays/ Celebrations? Maybe a little backdated??

Type: Video
Sender ID: @ reindered (Tony Tony Chopper)
To: Public/Everyone
Subject: Holidays! Tell him about them! (and excuses to devour more candy!)
Warnings: Not that I can think of??

[Chopper looks rather happy, sitting wearing his ghost costume with a small pile of candy surrounding him. Evidently, everyone seemed to think his costume adorable and gave him lots of candy. He smiles, beaming and waving a hoof at the shellphone, putting another empty wrapper in the rubbish bin next to him with the rest. He may have chocolate around his mouth. But that's clearly not the important thing here!]

Everyone! Hey! So, we've had this 'Halloween' with dressing up and stuff. What other holidays are there?

[Read as: what other excuses are there for him to get all the candy and chocolate? Clearly, the priority here! If there are more holidays like this, he wants to know.]

Gee, I don't know, "Nondescript Winter Holiday"?

[ Normally he wouldn't even humour such a question, but this little creature radiates so much sincerity that he can't help but respond. There's so many to name, though... ]

Nondescript winter holiday?

[Eh? Look. It was basically almost always colder on Drum Island, where he was from back home. So. The concept of there being holidays around that particular time of year isn't so much a thing.]

It's... nevermind.

[ It's not the official name for it, but he won't bore him with the actual details of it either. Chances are someone else will do it anyway. ]

Look, I don't know what kind of holidays they have here, but I can tell you about some from my world. Or... worlds? Why are you so curious anyway?

Because Halloween was awesome! Dressing up and getting lots of candy is the best! I wanna know if there's other holidays, too!

[If nothing else, the little reindeer is enthusiastic, at least? And curious. If for.....sweets related reasons....]

Oh, so that's what this is about? Guess I'll skip the one about the fighting tournament...

[ It's not exactly his favourite one anyway. ]

You know, there's really not that many in which you get to dress up, but there's nothing stopping you from making one up anyway. You can call it... hell, Splaturday. And you know what's special about Splaturday?

Splaturday? What's that?

Well... in a faraway land, it's a special kind of day in the week. What's special about it is that is happens every day. And on some of those every-days, they would host a Farmer's Market of sorts, except for selling produce... they would sell little farmers who happily grow the produce for you until their work is done!

[ It's as wacky as it sounds. ]

W-wait, they sell.....they sell the actual farmers?

[That. Does not sound okay? Or maybe he is just reading too much into it. It almost sounds a little like those Davy Back things with the pirates. When he had been taken temporarily by the Foxy Pirates.]

[ The little guy is definitely reading too much into it, but Jaune doesn't pick up on the part that doesn't sound okay. ]

Hey, I thought it was weird, too, but they insisted on doing it their way. I mean, can you imagine waiting so long for a potato to grow just so you can have a meal?

N-no, I don't mean that. Of course, food can take time to grow. I just mean selling the farmers. Doing that to people is wrong....!

[The only reason he had handled the Davy fight with the Foxy pirates was because the others had told him to be strong and reassured him they would win him back again. Let alone knowing that wasn't an option.]

Well, they're not "people", per se... w-wait, I think you're getting the wrong idea. It's not what it sounds like, and we're getting completely off-track! Trust me, as weird as that world was, it was all consensual. You just can't force your own logic on them, y'know? [ He has definitely had a long time to try it. ]

Some worlds are completely different from the ones you and I know. Still, they know their purpose, who they are, and what makes them happy. Something many of us are still trying to figure out...

But you were talking about selling them? Or, ah, was it more like them offering to work to fish? Something like that?

[Most people back home tended to basically work for themselves. To go around offering their skills. It's what he and Doctor Kureha had done back on Drum Island, anyway. Still, Chopper nods in agreement at what Jeaune says, then his ears shift a little.]

Right. Yeah!
