Day 12 - VOICE

It is the second Sunday of May.

I wonder how many of you can pay tribute to your mothers in this City? Many of you have probably been separated from your mothers. Even those whose mothers have gone cannot even visit their grave. How many mothers have been torn from their children?

Cards not given, flowers unreceived.

[ Pause. ]

Happy Mother's Day.

Monthly festival?

[Such things did not exist in her ancient New Zealand Greece.]

[ Oh nineties television. ]

In your honour. Every fourth day of every month. Unfortunately it is not often celebrated now.
lovely_aphrodite: (Contained excitment)

[personal profile] lovely_aphrodite 2012-05-13 04:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Not celebrated ever where I'm from.

Tell me everything about it! Do I get presents? Oh we have to get this going again.

Flowers, incense. A cleansing festival, one of bathing. As well as a day for those who offered [ awkward beat ] sexual pleasures.

You could adjust it to the modern calendar and celebrate it on the fourth of every month, or count from the new moon - which would make the next festival the 24th.
lovely_aphrodite: (Smile)

[personal profile] lovely_aphrodite 2012-05-13 05:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Wait it's a whore thing?... I can work around that.

The 24th huh? So I've got 11 days to get this thing together. You're helping right?

You -- [ Beat. ] I am sure you can.

Do you wish for my help?
lovely_aphrodite: (Parade Wave)

[personal profile] lovely_aphrodite 2012-05-13 05:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Duh! You're the one who knows about it.

Very well. The City should remember it, now that you are here.
lovely_aphrodite: (The world is awesome)

[personal profile] lovely_aphrodite 2012-05-13 06:07 pm (UTC)(link)
You are the best [Pause as she looks at the name on the comm] Julian!

That's right. Julian Day. The Calendar Man.
lovely_aphrodite: (Oh yeah baby)

[personal profile] lovely_aphrodite 2012-05-13 09:48 pm (UTC)(link)
You're the man, Julian.

So if we're going to do this, we've got to get started. Since your the only one who really knows about it I'm sure no one will notice if we make a few teansy little changes.

Like you mentioned flowers and incense . Let's go ahead and change that to Gems and Jewelry.

[ Pause. He turns it over in his head. ] Times do change, and you are the goddess. It is your festival.

[ Private ]

Gems and jewelry can be arranged, if you do not mind my methods.

Hmm, private message...guessing it's not going to be entirely legal.

Hey, I don't judge. Even crooks need a little love in their life.

Especially when they give proper tributes.

[ Putting it delicately: ] I would be happy to pay tribute for your festival, and get nothing in return.
lovely_aphrodite: (You want me)

Private

[personal profile] lovely_aphrodite 2012-05-18 04:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Those are the best kinds of presents!

If you keep it up I might just get so happy I'll want to reward you anyway.
