Area 53 In Character

Are you busy this evening?

Just wanting to wish Matt Murdock a very happy birthday!

How did I get here? Booker?

[ a pause as she looks at her bloodstained clothes]

I can't wear these.

This can't be happening...


Where I was wasn't home anyway, but at least my friends knew where I was.

I can't believe we're only twenty days away from Christmas.

I have so much shopping to do.

So apparently, holidays prior to the bombs seem to be just as depressing as they're supposed to be uplifting. Thanksgiving is pretty dark when you look at the history, and Christmas just seems weird. At least I missed Unity Day this time around.

That was an excellent dinner for us who live here now. I am glad to have been able to share in it. It is unfortunate that my son or old friend was not present.. however, I know they are doing well back home. I am happy to have made new friends in my time here. And now I will look forward to and will help assist in the Christmas festivities as well.

I have been caring for a bird as a.. side project, of my work at the vet. Injured wing. It is done on my time off from work. But I believe the bird will fly again soon. I have noticed one other thing about the clinic. There was a man who worked there named Scott. He has not been at the site for some time. I do not sense his presence in the shop anymore, which is odd since everyone usually leaves behind a trace of energy in places they go Those who know him, have you seen him? Is he alright? There is a chance he might have returned hom but I am not fully certain. I could offer to help in a search if needed.

I'll admit I don't really get the whole Thanksgiving holiday, but Christmas rings vaguely familiar for me. Seems a lot like Life Day, which is something I can get behind.

I know what they said, but I can't be here.

Song writing and cranky babies really do not go well together.

The hell is this, then?

I do hope that everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I find here it is good to hold onto the familiar things. There's so little of it as it is.

I do hope all of you newer people are settling in well though?

Now with Thanksgiving Holiday past, it is time to look towards Christmas and New Year. As so many of you are new here this year, I thought it was prudent to explain what we normally do.

While you are more than welcome to hold your own celebrations, much like Halloween, the town will host a Christmas and New Years Celebration at the Community Centre for all of you who which to attend.

Community Centre Workers

I trust that all of you received the packet of information detailing what will be taking place for the above celebrations?

And I thought working delivery at a Chinese place the day after Thanksgiving would be easy! Why aren't you people eating leftovers??

If I said, Hogwarts what would people think?

Just an FYI, I'm looking after a kid again. Name's Henry. He had family here, but they left. You know what that's like.

So another alternate universe? I'm getting damn good at these things.

I think I may have made far too many brownies for tomorrow's get together.

At least I remembered to make the sweet potato casseroles first?

Maybe it's not where I planned to be, but I think I'm starting to like it here.

It feels weird to be living a new life without Liz or Michael.
