12 Doce -Not this again

 [Well Cuba was dead for a while....that was fun.

Only not. But he's been alive again for a while now and he's discovered something]

Hey, anyone who knows Marisa, did she do anything to get in trouble...I mean recently? Cause she's been droned for a while now and it's starting to get weird.


Oh yeah, Vietnam, Canada. You guys doing anything for New Years tonight?


[About to hang up when he remembers something]

.....also, when does winter end around here?

Yeah.

Lots of them. I usually spend it in Havana. We have fireworks late at night and everyone gets together with family and friends to eat and drink. There's also a great show every year, with music and dancing. All sorts of stuff.

And to top it all off, new years day, January 1st, is also the anniversary of the revolution.

I do not know what these fireworks are, but the rest of it sounds wonderful, like celebrations in Val Royeaux. The streets are crowded with people singing and dancing and you can hear the bells from the Chantry above everything else. And, of course, everyone is wearing all of the latest fashions; what good is a celebration if you're not looking your best, after all?

[Her voice sounds wistful and she gets a far away look in her eyes.]

Perhaps we should have a celebration of our own. We have survived the new year here, and you have a revolution to commemorate.

They're kinda like colourful explosions we shoot up in the air. Really nice looking.

Sounds like Havana. The place is always packed on New Years.

Ha, I do! Well Canada's coming over and maybe Vietnam. So we could have a small party here.

[That sounds BEAUTIFUL! Even if she's supposed to have set aside materialism and more worldly things... well, she will always like things that are pretty. And shoes.] I'd love to see them some day.

[Vietnam's name gives her pause, however.]

Is... is that safe, Cuba? Last time I saw Vietnam....

[Totally oblivious. Being dead and all.]

Safe? Why wouldn't it be safe?

The last time I saw her, she seemed... strange. She attacked me, almost as if she could not help it.

I ended up dying from the injuries. [Hard to live through a severed spinal cord and all.]

[commie-island.livejournal.com]

What? When did that happen?

[bard-of-orlais.livejournal.com]

Christmas day, I think. When everyone was confused over this Santa Claus person.

I... do not think she was herself. But I am still worried about what might happen. [Up to and including awkwardness surrounding the whole 'oh hey, I killed you' conversation.]
