text @PAPYRUS - New Years

HAPPY 1962!!!

IT'S HARD TO CALL THIS A NEW YEAR... SINCE THIS SEEMS LIKE THE PAST TO ME.

BUT DECEMBER IS OVER! AND IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE IT'S SUDDENLY FEBRUARY.

HOW ABOUT.

HAPPY NEW OLD YEAR!!!


[But don't be fooled - it's the start of 1961! Despite Papyrus optimistically posting this at midnight on the dot, everything from the TV countdown to physical calendars to outstanding bills says otherwise.]

this is the saddest old year celebration I've been to

isn't there supposed to be some kind of event for the town?

nah just new year celebrations

but we'd at least go to the temple or go somewhere fun even if we were busy
[At least they weren't staying in whatever temporary house they were living in at the time.]

I miss cities

[Okuyasu stars at the text for a moment.]

righthandstand: (I feel you not so deeply)

[personal profile] righthandstand 2021-01-09 12:24 am (UTC)(link)
yeah
it sucks

like christmas
righthandstand: (this is bullshit)

[personal profile] righthandstand 2021-01-09 07:26 pm (UTC)(link)
the whole thing was shitty with the reindeer and snowmen, duh

nothing about that month was fun at all
righthandstand: (breaks into your house)

[personal profile] righthandstand 2021-01-09 08:42 pm (UTC)(link)
fuck Christmas!

and whatever other holidays they got here

actually i hope they don't ruin valentines day
we can keep that one
righthandstand: (neutral listening)

[personal profile] righthandstand 2021-01-10 01:12 am (UTC)(link)
the one where girls give you chocolate if they like you
or if they give it to all the boys
it's the best holiday for getting a girlfriend

do don't have it in your country?
righthandstand: (think think think)

[So this guy can't be from America or Japan. Interesting.

And now he has Okuyasu curious.]

so where are you from anyway
righthandstand: (what a beautiful duwang (chew))

[God, he lives somewhere so remote he never heard of Valentine's day? Like, in the middle of Asia? An island?]

sounds boring
not that small towns suck
but I grew up in Tokyo so big cities are normal for me

this is a pretty empty place to live
righthandstand: (you are so smart!)

[personal profile] righthandstand 2021-01-12 03:55 pm (UTC)(link)
hold up you had access to the web

I thought you lived in the middle of nowhere


[The internet isn't ubiquitous when he's from!!]

[Okuyasu's heard of this...the Internet was started as a government thing, and then a university thing. Only recently did libraries and high schools start having research computers. Of course they could have local shared data.

But then that must mean...]


were you part of a government experiment
righthandstand: or cautiously watching while eating Italian (popcorning)
