A Cynic in December [video]

It's that time of the year again, isn't it?

[Have a mildly unimpressed dhampir making a face in regards to the Guardian debates. While he hasn't been keeping a close eye on the event, he certainly can't believe he's been in Genessia long enough to witness another change of hands. It's a little...humbling. Why? Well, Augustine never expected his stay in Genessia to be an indefinite one.]

Lovely. Now we sit back and listen to the candidates spout endlessly about working for the greater good and all that nonsense. The usual campaign pageantry we're used to by now.

[Well! A certain someone is feeling quite cynical today despite looking quite handsome in an all black ensemble. There's hints of red here and there but it's all so discreet.]

In any case, I'm in need of some holiday cheer. So, I was wondering if anyone is interested in decking the metaphorical halls with me, preferably with candy canes and eggnog.

[Knowing him, he's mentioning the eggnog loaded with alcohol.]

Although, this begs the question...who actually celebrates Christmas here? [Good question, right? Augustine is actually curious about this.] So many of us hail from various different worlds and such, so is Christmas honestly a holiday that is celebrated largely here?

Or does it go by other names, perhaps? I know I heard someone refer to it as "Starlight" before.

[He pauses.] I forgot whom it was but that's a rather festive name.

No, such things didn't exist where I'm from.

[Thy didn't seem to have holidays like that anyway.]

I'm from a place called Alanya, it's a small fishing village.
