Today is the Feast of Annunciation.

In Firenze, that also means the beginning of the New Year. I realize that many have already celebrated such an event and I will admit at the time it befuddled me that so many celebrated it during that time, and then again the Eastern tradition was on yet another day altogether. So it was celebrated twice here with such a diversity of peoples. But to me the beginning of the year starts this day. I realize it seems odd to celebrate the new year right in the middle of a month but it is how we've done it for years. Call it a religious fault, if you will, though that may be inaccurate it does fall on the celebration on the Annunciation of Christ--likely on purpose.

Either way... I quite like the tradition.


Ezio, enjoy the grapes and strawberries while they last. I won't be asking for them again anytime soon. And I imagine they are very hard to grow at this time of the year.

Arcivescovo Maxwell, I will be coming to the church to pay my respects. I assume you still celebrate the day despite the chronology differences?

Su Altezza Alessandro, Cardinale Sforza--will you hold true as well? Shall I see the two of you today?

La sicurezza e la pace sulla città ei suoi abitanti. Potrebbe essere il giorno luminoso e felice per tutti. Buon anno.

[[Arcivescovo - Archbishop

Su Altezza - Your Highness

Cardinale - Cardinal

Safety and peace upon the city and its residents. May the day be bright and happy for all. Happy new year.]]

[He would chuckle again at her naivety--whether faked or not--but it does not seem appropriate. He's silent for a moment instead.]

...perhaps. I would have a lot of explaining to do though. I do not look forward to that.

*She goes to fold one of her ears against her head.*

Or perrrhaps they will await to hear the stories that you will tell them about this place.

[betrayedblade.livejournal.com]

I suppose... after...

[weaponxi.livejournal.com]

I see....

*She isn't helping matters is she? She reaches up to idly finger the blue feather in her hair.*

[betrayedblade.livejournal.com]

[Not really.]

[weaponxi.livejournal.com]

.... Sorry.

[betrayedblade.livejournal.com]

[He smiles reassuringly for her.]

[weaponxi.livejournal.com]

*She goes to force a smile for him. She blew it and she knows it.*

[betrayedblade.livejournal.com]

[He won't hold it against her in the future.]

BLAME THIS ON EALD'NARCHE-MUN!!!

[weaponxi.livejournal.com]

*That makes her happy. Really really happy. She silent a moment longer before speaking up again.*

.... Would you need a hug, Giovanni?

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFT. LOL

[betrayedblade.livejournal.com]

...you do not need to inconvenience yourself. [But yes, he would be more than willing to accept a hug.]

Giovanni y so adorables?

[weaponxi.livejournal.com]

It would be a inconvenience for me to do that. Otherrrwise I would have offered.

*Then be prepared to have a Mithra to come and hug you. She is more then happy to do this for him.*

[He looks sheepish, but mostly just a soft sad-like quality. He smiles and nods once.

Though it might help if she knew where she was going... and he isn't offering it up.]

Not all stories should be told.

[weaponxi.livejournal.com]

*Yes, you are Shrrrrrimp. >B|*

But there is still storrries that one can tell.

[crystal-eyed.livejournal.com]

[ THAT'S NOT MY FAULT SHUT UP ;A; ]

Just because you can tell a story, Xi, doesn't mean that you should.

[weaponxi.livejournal.com]

*IT IS YER FAULT FOR BEING RUDE, SHRRRIMP! B|*

Then just don't tell those stories. But therrre are other storrries, Eald'narche.

*Nope, she isn't sure if she should call you 'brother' again or not due to that last fight.*

[crystal-eyed.livejournal.com]

[ Ugh, don't remind him. ]

...what is that supposed to mean?

[weaponxi.livejournal.com]

*Eternally reminds him. Chibi.*

[crystal-eyed.livejournal.com]

[weaponxi.livejournal.com]
