Voice; Fiddlesticks 24, early-ish morning. (slightly backdated)
Colour me curious, but what are winter festivals or holidays like on your world? Back home, today would be Shiwasu 10, or Tōji -longest night and the start of winter. It's also my birthday, but that's not the important thing; it's not a big number anyway. I don't know what Alola does for Tōji, so I'll tell you what my hometown did.
[The longer she talks, the more homesick she sounds. It likely doesn't help that today's her birthday, but well. Small detail's Eva's willing to overlook.] Masara had the rural traditions of feasting, food making, drinking, games dancing, battles. You know, the normal for a coastal town.
No snowball fights though; we'd have to go to the mountains for that and we never went in the lead up to Tōji because that was bad luck. But, we did have something better: Fire jumping under the stars to bring good luck. You'd start at dusk with it low, little more than a small coal pit so even kids could jump it with supervision, and work up to a boosted jump over a half-drum of flames, though they'd only let the adults do that one.
The day I turned twenty I did so many times mum had to drag me away from it by the ear, but - worth it. So worth it...

[Since he can control the sword]
Late :(
[And she's going to climb up with a grace that hints she's very likely climbed onto far more precarious things than a flying sword.]
Can I record this?
It's fine. :3
She had the advantage that he was in control of the sword and he had been doing this for most of his life at this point]
You may.
[And he would wait for her to be ready if she wanted to record the whole thing]
