Passed it again, huh. I keep losing track... wonder if it's a good thing.

....

Hey, so... does anybody have a particular day - or more than one, I guess - that means something to them? Not their birthday or a holiday or anything like that, I mean a regular, normal day where something important or significant happened to them. Could be good or bad, whatever.


[Zack's in a weird mood today, for... various reasons. He's also lounging in the hammock outside House 50, enjoying it while he can before the cold weather forces him to take it down, so if you happen to be in the area, feel free to bother him that way instead.]

Do I get an interesting answer?

[idle-magic.livejournal.com]

That depends. Do you have an interesting answer?

[wingenvy]

Probably as much as anybody else does.

[idle-magic.livejournal.com]

So does that mean you have one of those special days?

[wingenvy]

I have a few, sure. Both good and bad.

[idle-magic.livejournal.com]

Huh. I guess I might have a day or two...if I bothered to think about it.

[wingenvy]

You don't put much weight on special days, then?

[idle-magic.livejournal.com]

I don't see any reason to celebrate them or talk about them or anything. They'd just be days I'm more likely to remember.

[wingenvy]

Well, you're free to feel however you like about your own memories and experiences. This was mostly just me being curious.

[idle-magic.livejournal.com]

I'd rather keep important memories to myself. There's probably a lot of people who're willing to tell you about theirs though.

[wingenvy]

Yeah, I didn't really think people would wanna go around telling strangers their deepest, darkest secrets. But sometimes you just gotta ask questions, y'know?

[idle-magic.livejournal.com]

I guess so. It's something to talk about, at least.

[wingenvy]

Everybody gets bored so easily here, so it's best to go out and talk to new people to stir things up a bit.

[idle-magic.livejournal.com]

Some people turn out not to be very fun to talk to though.

[wingenvy]

Sometimes you just gotta drag the fun out of 'em!

[idle-magic.livejournal.com]

And how would you do that?

[wingenvy]

I dunno, it's different for everybody. Sometimes you have to bribe them into trying something fun, or pester them until they're convinced, or figure out a good way to make them laugh. Different people respond to different methods.

[idle-magic.livejournal.com]

...That's interesting.

[wingenvy]

Huh? [Really, Zack thinks it's normal.]

[idle-magic.livejournal.com]

I didn't think you'd have so many methods for that. Do you pester people often then?

[wingenvy]

Well, mostly I try to get real conversation out of them. I don't really like bothering people if they're gonna get really mad. I'm not out to make enemies, after all!

[idle-magic.livejournal.com]

That makes sense. Some people are safer to bother than others.

[wingenvy]

Yep! Especially if you know the person. The people I bug the most are my friends.

[idle-magic.livejournal.com]

They must be pretty used to you then.

[wingenvy]

I sure hope so, otherwise I'd never get away with it.
