That's still a very troubling ratio, regardless. I've heard things about a dangerous fog last month, so if we're using that as a basis... I'm not particularly looking forward to the holidays. [PLEASE LET HIM BE WRONG ABOUT THIS?? He doesn't want to deal with monsters or dangerous stuff when he should be focusing on finals, CRIES]
Oh no! You are right! If it skips
November then the odds of something happening in December increase! I
really hope that does not happen. I want to enjoy my first Christmas in
Recolle.
[SERIOUSLY, THINK OF ALL THE CUTE CHRISTMAS THINGS....]
Well, it was just a theory?? I mean... I don't think they'd bother us during Christmas. Maybe they'll be doing stuff with their own families and be too busy otherwise? I'm sure it'll be fine! [Speaking for his sake as much as hers, because omg he didn't want to upset Li-Na with that--]
Um... on the subject of holidays, what ARE your plans for Christmas? Are you on your own?
I am staying with a host family, so I
guess I will do what they are doing. I should ask Chiyo... But if you want
to, we could spend some time together! Go out for dinner like everyone does
back home.
[Li-Na... Li-Na... this isn't Hong Kong... Christmas dinner at a
fancy restaurant might not be a thing here...]
[Yo, CLAMP already gave them matching Halloween outfits, I would not be surprised whatsoever if that was a thing]
Um... I don't mind if you don't?? It'd be nice to spend it with family this year, and I don't have any plans otherwise.
-- oh, but the dinner thing might be a bit tricky? There's not a lot of places open on Christmas in the US, apparently. [He learned that the hard way last year, SOBS--] Chinese places are usually open, though? We can even see if there's a dim sum place, if you like that sort of thing. [Xiaolang, for one, loves it, but he doesn't want to drag his cousin to just the places he enjoys.]
I think people host dinner at their house? Although they already do that for Thanksgiving, so I don't see the point of doing it again a month later. [American traditions are weird, yo
But Li-Na automatically gets bonus points for her excellent taste, and he can't help but feel a little... happy? Maybe? At the thought of having someone else from home here to spend the holidays with.]
I haven't had dim sum since I moved here, so I'm not sure if Recolle even has such a place, but... it wouldn't be so bad to go. Especially with someone else who likes it, too.
They cook two big dinners, two months
in a row? That does seem a bit much.
[Li-Na is feeling excited at the prospect of having family to spend
time with on Christmas. She knows Chiyo's family will welcome her into
whatever their family is doing, but it will be nice to do something with
her own family as well.]
Okay. If we can find a dim sum
restaurant, we will go there for dinner on Christmas.

don't let us down clamp!]Oh, I did not realize. I wonder what they do instead.
But I love dim sum! That would be fun.
[pft, who doesn't like dim sum? terrible people, that's who.]
