Ah! Hello everyone. I hope you're having a good morning. I uh, I just wanted to wish you all a happy Saint Patrick's Day! Some of you may know the holiday, but I know a lot of people aren't from the same, uh, place I am. Saint Patrick is the patron saint of where I was born, Ireland. He's known for banishing all of the snakes from the country. Uh, I'm sure he did a lot of other saintly miracles too, though I have to say I'm not sure what they are...

Um anyway! Traditionally everyone makes it to mass, then there's a lot of parties and parades and the like! And you should wear green and white. And clovers and shamrocks! There's no reason Mayfield couldn't look a bit festive, right? No matter where we were living at the time, my family would return to Ireland every year and celebrate with our relatives. I uh... I hope they have a good time this year. I'm sure they will...

Oh! And be sure to wear green to the school dance, too. Just a bit of a hint, OK? I hope I'll see you all there. I'm working very hard to make sure you all have a good time!

[Today is making Crowe even more homesick than he's been, so he'll be keeping himself busy. Anyone who approaches him will find him a bit distracted and quieter than usual. After school - and blitzball practice, then somehow finding time to make it to church - he'll go suit shopping with Tony to help get him outfitted for the dance. He'll also call Kay Faraday and the Sullivan sisters if they'd like to help finish up the decorations over the weekend. Tao Ren can help too, if he likes! You know he wants to get his hands on that glitter]

Sure, I can help out. When do you need me? I'm gonna watch the baseball team practice for a while after school, but I'm free after that.

Oh, great! Whenever you're free is fine! I mean, I'm in charge of the decorations, so it's my responsibility, techincially. But I had to admit, arts and crafts have never been my strong point...

Happy Saint Patrick's Day!

And of course I'll help! I can't vouch for Margot she's been acting a little off, but I can make it over after homework.

Thanks! You as well!

Ah, well she didn't seem very excited but I do think she is coming to the dance, right? I suppose that's the most we can ask for. [Chuckle]

[laughing so hard]

Oh, she puts up such a good act, doesn't she? She's excited in her own way. I'll see if I can rope her into helping with the rest of the decorations later.

Me either, but that's never stopped me before! Besides, it'll be more fun the more people are helping.

How did he get rid of the snakes?

[Kay shows up later that evening wearing a mint green sweater and a long skirt in a darker shade of green. She has her hair tied back with a white ribbon. Looking rather festive.]

"Heya! I'm here to help. What do you need me to do?"

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2010-03-18 12:36 am (UTC)(link)
[Crowe seems thrilled you showed!] Oh! Well, I'm trying to figure out what I'm going to do with all these streamers... and is there any practical use for glitter? It seems to have gotten all over everything...

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2010-03-18 12:39 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, I suppose with God's help?

[identity profile] thief-of-truth.livejournal.com 2010-03-18 12:39 am (UTC)(link)
[Looks around the room a little. It looks like a geyser erupted, and instead of water, it spewed glitter everywhere.]

"Hmm... well, it's pretty? And sparkly, I guess. Couldn't hurt to... spread it around a little. It's kind of clumped together in places right now."

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2010-03-18 02:32 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, there was a mishap with the glue. I'm sorry. Um. Oh, your outfit is very festive, I must say!

[identity profile] thief-of-truth.livejournal.com 2010-03-18 03:36 am (UTC)(link)
Hehe, thanks. I finally managed to dig some clothes out of my closet that I don't completely hate. Though it's still nothing close to what I'm used to wearing.

Happy Saint Patrick's Day.

Thanks so much! You as well!

No slugs involved?

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2010-03-19 02:36 am (UTC)(link)
Um, not as far as I know... why do you ask?

A mixing of legends!

Slugs beat snakes!

Re: A mixing of legends!

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2010-03-19 02:09 pm (UTC)(link)
[He chuckles.] If you insist! But wouldn't a snake just eat a slug?

It's like rock-papper-scissors; snakes beat frogs, frogs beat slugs, and slugs beat snakes.
