St Kelley's is one of the more sedate occasions in Baedal, at least as holidays go. It passes more or less unnoticed by the majority of the population as many of them feel it doesn't concern them. It's not their holiday; it's for the others. Those with severed ties and broken hearts. The temple and church preach that it's a time for reflection or for glorifying the generosity of the gods. It's one of the few days on which no one looks askance at first generation Citizens mourning their missing loved ones publicly.

As night rolls around and floating lanterns are set to sea, the Apache in Mog Hill prepares to accept guests from the newer cohorts. It's something that happens every year, making it a practical tradition. The alcohol will be cheaper for first timers, and the music will be kept at a reasonable level.

"Jeez, they just let anybody in here, don't they."

Megan is among the many people feeling pretty subdued tonight -- when they said memento from home, she was hoping for maybe something from one of her friends or her dad, not her mum, with whom she's always had a more troubled relationship, and it's dimmed her mood a little bit. But then she vanished to the bathroom and emerged up again, so...

Her hand hovers vaguely over Jae's hair, menacing him with ruffling it. (She would never, it's an idle threat.) This necessitates her hovering with her wings, she's slightly less than a foot shorter than him.

"To be fair, I bribed the door guy." He's smiling, because it's good to see Megan out, subdued or not - blackout partying, in his opinion, doesn't count. Not that he's going to say so.

He looks up at her hand, faux-terrified. "That's cruel and unusual."

"Oh, well, that makes sense, then," she says, beaming cheerfully and a little vaguely. She can't possibly be drunk yet, anyway.

"That's what you get for not coming to say hi!" She menaces him a bit more thoroughly, then lowers her hand. She'd never actually defile the sanctity of Jae's amazing hair. And she's not at all actually annoyed, or else she'd be off sulking somewhere, not here bothering him. "How's your Happy By The Way Just In Case You Forgot We Totally Fuckin' Kidnapped You People Day going, then? 'Cause so far mine is total balls."

"I'm always saying hi, you're just too much of a celebrity to notice, Miss Megan." Don't make him leave yet MORE voicemails about her rap career. He'll do it, Hoface.

"I'm not sure how I feel yet," he admits. "I didn't send anything, so it's just kind of..." he shrugs. "It's not like I ever forgot I was kidnapped, I guess." He doesn't sound bitter, just resigned.

"Maybe it's better for people who've been here longer. I dunno." She pauses for a few seconds, as if briefly introspective, then barrels right past that. "But like, whatever, if they're gonna offer cheap drinks then my ass is there like a simile in a sentence." She plops said ass down in a seat and starts on her whatever-enth beer of the night.

"I guess if you've resigned yourself to being here forever, getting things every year would be comforting." Patronizing, too - the gods have the power to pull things in and out of the world at will, but they won't return people or bring in their loved ones, or medication, or...

But that's even more depressing than mementos of people you can't touch.

"They do holidays the right way here, anyway." WITH LIQUOR.

"Oh, I know, right? We're basically getting Christmas twice. Kitty Christmas and Emo Christmas." No, that would be Tim Burton Christmas, Megan. "I hope we get free shit every month, that'd rule."

"I missed the last one by like four days, apparently. And it was November at home." He is still sad about missing Christmas. STILL. "There is an empty hole in my heart where Santa hats and fairy lights should be."

Megan spits her drink out, exaggeratedly and deliberately... thankfully aiming away from Jae. "Oh my god. Let's have Christmas. In February. At work. I totally want to do a set to 'Santa Baby'."

AAAaah oh no okay she did it away from him and his expensive swear. JESUS, MEGAN.

Recovering from his brief moment of pearl-clutching, Jae laughs. "Glitter snow and candy canes?"
