Orchestra 14 [audio/video]
[Elidibus doesn't have much fanfare for his audio and video posts and this isn't any different. It's him, sitting in front of the ICP presumably in his room.]
Good afternoon. I hope everyone has weathered the voidstorm if not well then at least with quick recovery.
I've been a passenger for about three months and I have noticed something curious. Given mortal propensity to celebrate seasonal festivities nearly every moon, I have not heard anyone make particular mention of doing so. I understand it's likely due to our lack of sense to time within the void other than the train's calendar and seasons as well as any differences from our respective stars.
Yet I would like to propose this changes. Establishing festive occasions not for every moon but with regular intervals will serve good purpose. A sense of anticipation for the upcoming festivity and a boon to community spirit during. To that end, I would open the floor to information on celebrations native to your respective worlds. Speak to me or one another.
I suspect we will find more similarities than differences and can create traditions for the train not just for ourselves, but for those who will inevitably succeed us. I am willing to take initiative in assembling the ideas and giving them a form within the limits of this train.
[Elidibus ends his speech here though he remains open to talking.]
[OOC: Talk about your yearly festivities and holidays! The aim is to try and establish some 'holidays and traditions' that help keep spirits up and improve train morale. Feel free to outline months or seasonal time of year for your world and the holidays (some or whatever you can think of)!
INSPIRATION: This Christmas H&M commercial from a few years back that I absolutely adored (also I kinda like Wes Anderson quirkiness). Please watch, it's a gem and also invokes trainlife.]

[Don't worry, there's no criticism or disbelief here. Rituals, particularly those of remembrance are perfectly respectable.]
Would presenting a means for a similar memorial during a general festival be construed as offensive to the observance? Or would holding a general winter festival with its absence be impolite in your eyes?
no subject
[ She considers his question for a moment. ] Well, I guess if the winter festival had something for other Earth holidays and left out something for Hanukkah, it'd be a little rude. Even if it's not exactly the same, celebrating in a way kinda like Hanukkah would be nice.

[Sure he's not asking for a lot of details right now but that shouldn't be cause for concern. Lots of people have spoken to him tonight. The important part is that he's being polite and for all observable purposes, interested without any dismissiveness.]
