[ Louis appears on the camera, and behind him is a very empty looking room at the inn. Perfect - just how he decorates. He leans back into a chair and has his arms folded over his chest. ]
I was away for a few months and things got bad here, it looks like. I think I have the short version of what happened, and I don't need all of the details. Besides, that's not why I'm here on the network.
[ He considers and then -- ]
In December, at home, we have a Holiday called Rexmas. It's to be spent with families and loved ones, gift giving, that sort of thing. I wager other places have similar holidays, and if you want - you can share what yours are. I'm admittedly a bit curious. December is always busy and eventful for me, and this is the first year in many where I don't anticipate being busy, so I don't know what to do with myself.
Which made me get an idea, which I suspect that a lot of people will like.
[ His tone doesn't shift, and his attention seems solidly on the camera. His tone is...formal, almost stern. ]
I'm thinking that the first weekend of December we should have a party for everyone. A formal party, or maybe a masquerade? Maybe let me know what sounds more fun for you. An opportunity for people to dress up in something nice and enjoy each other's company. To drink, and dance, and party, essentially.
I've worked to organize events like this at home many times before, so I have no problem securing a location, and working to organize the event. As long as others are willing to volunteer to help with setup of it.
[ He unfolds his arms, and his body seems to relax. He smiles a little. ]
That being said, I want to make sure everyone can fully enjoy themselves, and it's a safe event. So I do have a few things that I want to ensure are absolutely going to be rules.
First, children under the age of sixteen will be forbidden to stay after nine in the evening. Second, all weapons are to be left at home. Third, no fighting with magic, either. Magic may be used for the purpose of entertainment at the event.
Again, I want a peaceful, safe event - so these are the only real non-negotiables. Beyond those, I'm open to suggestions, contributors. That's sort of thing.

Sounds like Christmas but starring a T-Rex instead of Santa Claus. But I can help set up and stuff, if you want.
I don’t really have any Christmas traditions, most in Japan get that bucket of fried chicken from KFC but I can do with any food to be honest. None of my friends are here [Or know him, he’s been hesitant to reach out because of that.] so I’m alright with whatever.
no subject
We obviously have parts of it that center around a good meal, too. It's probably pretty clear it's [ heh ] not fried chicken, though.
There's no one from my home here, either. There was when I was here previously, at least for a little bit.
no subject
Probably not. But I’m good with whatever meal as long as I’m with friends. Sorry to hear yours aren’t here anymore though.
Do you want help with setting up?
no subject
I'd like help, of course. I'm Louis, by the way. I realize I didn't introduce myself.
no subject
Well, let me know when and what you need help with and I'll be there.
no subject
I will. Are you newer here?

I left before Celliwig and all the stuff went down there.
You'll get used to it here, in time. I think.

Not really sure how things work as far as time, except that when I was at home it was like I was never here.

[Not to mention that the people from his world didn't actually know him, they knew someone else who lived a similar life to his own. Alternate realities wasn't something he expected but he wasn't particularly surprised at this point either.]
