[There's a curious look to his expression for a moment, and he's nodding along like he gets it for roughly two seconds before he opens his mouth to give away the fact that he absolutely does not understand.]
Can I ask you what Christmas is supposed to be? I keep hearing it get thrown around.
[He snorts a bit. Go figure the guy didn't know what it was. Wonder what they had in Teyvet for Christmas, if they had anything at all. Maybe some like winter solstice shit.]
It's a Christian Holiday or some shit. Celebrate the birth of Jesus. Mind you they took that holiday from the pagans, but say that to a Christan and they'd probably combust. But most people simply celebrate it because you're supposed to decorate a pine tree and leave gifts under it for friends and family. There's also this tale that kids are told about a jolly fat guy that travels the whole world in one night to leave the presents to the good kids and coal to the bad kids.
[please dont make me make up more teyvat holidays i know where you live]
That's uh... A lot for a holiday, all at once.
[He shifts his grip on the boxes again, drumming his fingers against the cardboard.] Jesus is Lucifer's brother or something, correct? I've never heard of the other guy, though.
Some shit like that yeah. Santa Claus, or Saint Nick, whatever you want to call him. Picture a round dude with a lot of hair and a massive white beard. Has a bunch of elves working for him year round making toys and has flying reindeer.
