225 // video+action // open
[ Closed action, Helix ]

[ He's nervous as they head down to the beach, backpack filled not only with presents but with a few choice items as well. Ritualistic. A ceremony he hasn't been a part of for years and that normally requires a month of preparations but here they are in the land of last-minute-surprises and Aidan can't pass up this opportunity. It's as close as he'll ever get to a Winter Solstice celebration ever again and although it isn't a pig being slaughtered and there's no designated boulder here, he'll do what he can with what he's got.

Hands bare and reddened by the cold, he reaches out to grab Helix's hand as they walk. Nervous. Excited. ]


[Video; open ]

Hey, y'all. Happy holidays and uh... and all that. [ Unsure if he did that right. They don't do Christmas where he's from and that's very much the point of this transmission. ] I was thinkin', I bet there's plenty of us that don't celebrate th' way the Wardens've set this up. We've got people from all over the worlds after all, it'd be weird if everyone did it just like this.

How do you do it back where you're from? Do you celebrate... Christmas or is it somethin' else?

Oh, and uh... I'll be doin' a little celebration type thing of my own down at th' beach, if anyone wants to join. Just a little somethin' from back home... bring a cup, if you're comin' down.

[ Action; open. Aidan can be found down at the beach together with Helix. They've set up a fire in one of the fire pits and anyone interested will get an introduction to the godless earth-worshipping religion that Aidan is a surprisingly devout follower of. He can also be found scurrying over the dome throughout the day, delivering GIFTS to friend and foe alike! If your character isn't on the list but has some kind of CR with Aidan, feel free to assume they got something useful and generic like a pair of gloves or a scarf! ]

[ So loud! Loud and festive! He flashes Hikaru a bright smile once he approaches, bandaged hand lifted in a happy wave! ] Hey, Hikaru! Happy holidays!

[Hikaru gives the cheesiest of grins!]

Here I have a special delivery for Aidan!

[He makes dramatic arm gestures towards the cart to present the gifts!]

Whoa... that's some present! [ And now he feels bad for not getting something more! ]

The reaction I was hoping for!

[Throws his arms out!]

As a Hitachiin, it's my duty to go big at all times!

Well, you definitely succeeded there! Man... you didn't have to do that... I feel kinda bad for not gettin' you somethin' more.

[ Digging out the carefully wrapped present nonetheless! ]

Hopping in!

[Eventually wandering over to be nosey and see what Hikaru got Aidan for this festive holiday. Don't mind him, he'll just watch quietly and sip some sort of hot beverage, most likely coffee with alcohol in it, or spiked cocoa or something.]

You don't have to feel bad! It was a matter of being unable to decide what to get you, that's all! [He winks.] You'll see what I mean soon enough.

It's... way too much. But thank you. [ But before that, there's a present trade that needs to happen! ] Here. This is for you.

Ah! Thanks, Aidan! [He grins! He then turns to Helix.] Sorry, Helix... I didn't think to get you anything.... [Now he just feels awkward!]

[He shrugs, not bothered.]

I honestly wasn't expecting anything from anyone. [Except Aidan, and maybe a few others but... it's less that he expects gifts and more that they are the giving types and it wouldn't surprise him if they gave him something.]

[ Awkwardness may not prevail! ] You know what they say, it's uh... it's th' thought that counts. [ Actually, that was a shitty save. Let's turn the conversation towards safer things, like hitting balls. ]

Maybe we shouldn't even give each other presents, considerin' that we're rivals.

Y-yeah... it's the thought that counts! [Just going along with what Aidan says because that seemed like the best thing to do.]

Oh, you're right... You're lucky I'm a nice guy and that there is no animosity between us, so that makes this okay! [He chuckles!]

[Blinking between the two.] Yeah I kinda doubt most people thought about getting me anything.

[He doesn't exactly make friends easy.]

Heh, you guys take baseball way too seriously if that's the case. [Not that he thinks they're serious about the rival thing but hey. He can play along-ish.]

Hey, if I've learned anything since I joined up it's that baseball is darn serious. You take it too lightly, you're gonna end up with a mouth full of dirt!

Exactly what Aidan said! [Points at Helix!] I don't know about you, but I don't like being a loser! Especially since right now we're tied... So it's very serious!

[Snerking.]

It's just a game. [Guess who thinks he could be better at it than other and thus can't take it seriously? This guy. His ego sometimes...]

Yeah? [ Quirks a brow. ] Why don't you try it, then? If you think it's that easy.

[info]onelevelmeaner
2013-07-19 03:42 pm UTC (link)
Yeah, you should try it, because right now you're all talk!

[He continues the finger pointing at Helix!]

You really have no idea!

[Resisting urge to break Hikaru's pointy finger.]

Tch. Fine. I'll even play in the snow, give me a bat and toss balls of snow at me, I'll prove to you it's nothing for me.

[Boy his Ego really can get him in some trouble can't it?]

Well... hittin' snowballs wouldn't prove much, would it? It ain't just 'bout hittin' 'em, you gotta get 'em far enough so you can make it through th' bases before th' other team stops you.

Snow'll just break.

[ This just in, everything this mun knows about baseball she learned from A League of Their Own. ]

[Hikaru crosses his arms and nods.]

Exactly! You have to go through the entire process, if you really want to prove yourself! And there is no other way to do it than the official way!

Yeah? Care t' prove it? Soon as th' snow's gone.

[Hikaru can't help but to feel that this is somehow a bad idea, but he couldn't possibly stop the enabling now!]

Yeah, yeah! Prove it! Sign up, go through the practices and play through your first game. It's the only way!

What? Why do I have to sign up. I don't want this to be a frickin' commitment I just want to prove a point!
