It's almost Imbolc time, isn't it?!

[ It's pretty sudden, the way the feed cuts on and there's Gareth's sunny expression. All frustrations from earlier about her brush with wolfy-ness had been worked past, at least until next full moon, and she realizes she has something she really needs to focus on! ]

I've got to gather some fresh herbs for butter cakes, certainly. But I'm sure there's other work to be done heading into Saint Brigid's Day, too.

If anyone's curious about the holiday, feel free to ask! Or, if you want to help me gather herbs, I'd appreciate the help. It's tougher than it sounds, given there's still plenty of snow and cold about.

[ Gareth lets out a light laugh, rubbing the back of her head, and lets that sit a moment, worrying her lower lip before, hesitantly, saying the next thing. ]

It's... strange, isn't it? Maybe it's because spring is the season so strongly associated with companionship, but winter can be really lonely, right?

[ Her cheeks burn slightly, the words having finally gotten out, but she just as quickly shakes her head, waving her free hand before the camera. ]

F-forget I said that! No sense in spreading that kind of gloom, right? Anyways, I hope you all enjoy herb-butter cake! I'm going to be baking up plenty, even if you don't celebrate the holiday!

( In Asriel's opinion, it's always better to make a text post when he's upset about something. He doesn't want to worry anyone, especially when he's well aware that he's someone who's rather sensitive. He just has a brief question to ask as it is. )

... We never really know when people leave when they do, huh?

Do you think that the people who leave ever come back...?

( It's hard not to miss friends that he's not sure he'll see again. He's lost people important to him before -- but at the least, those he know who have left are going home. Not only that, but they're going to back to a home where they still have friends and family waiting for them.

He just wishes he had a chance to at least say good bye. )
