[Well, the thirtiesth of the month is Inaba's birthday but she isn't gonna say anything about that, so instead she will just make a random network post--]

So, it's almost December, so I'm curious: who here isn't familiar with Christmas?
Are we going to have to explain it to people?

[dereban]

It is.

Too bad I won't be able to celebrate Christmas Eve properly this year.

[rearranger]

I guess it would be hard here. (⇀‸↼‶) Were you able to celebrate it properly before you came here?

Hm, it'd be nice if they would at least decorate properly. ि०॰०ॢी Not that I'm hoping my breath.

[There's no immediate response. You'd think that it's because she's typing something lengthy, but no - she's been here a while, and then she was "gone" a while, killed, in fact.

It doesn't help that there's something that's...uncertain, so to speak. Like there's no definition of her memories. She can't be entirely sure what is or what isn't fabricated, now.

That thought scares her.

So that's why she hesitates, before typing, slowly, but steadily before she hits the submit button on her PDA:]

I had a small Christmas party with the CRC and a few of our friends.

In a place like this, I wouldn't dare ask for them to 'decorate properly' lest we get more cursed decorations. I'm not saying what those could possibly be lest someone get some ideas.

[Because she can unfortunately think of some terrible, awful ones.]

[rearranger]

I see. That doesn't sound like a bad way to spend the holiday. („• ᴗ •„) What's the CRC? (・・ ) ?

Yeah, I guess you're right. The people here have no class, so it'll just be a tacky replication of a horror movie. (＃￣ω￣) Though I guess there's nothing stopping people from making their own. 。.:☆*:･'(*⌒―⌒*)))

[ Though how much time they'd have to appreciate them is a different matter entirely. ]

[dereban]

It's the club that I was a part of - the Cultural Research Club.

And agreed.

[rearranger]

Culture Research Club? That would be a good one. You can gain a lot from studying different cultures. Did you just have an interest in studying the social sciences, or did you have a different goal in mind?

[ It's an interesting choice for someone who's primary focus seems to be technology, really. ]

[dereban]

It's nothing like that at all.

We were just a group that were tossed in a club together because everyone at school was forced to be in a club and I pissed off some members of the original club I was in.

[rearranger]

I see, so it was a club for stragglers. Did you enjoy it? I hope the people there were less fragile than the previous one.

[dereban]

Pretty much.

I had a lot of fun. The people there were truly great.

[rearranger]

What sort of activities did you guys do Was it just whatever you felt like, or did you make plans? It doesn't sound bad to have a place to hang out after school. ヽ(*・ω・)ﾉ

[dereban]

We mostly did whatever, really, but we were obligated to write a zine every month.
