[sounds more curious than anything] So...what's the big deal about Christmas anyway? Yes, I know how it works and all, but why?

...there are a lot of new feathers, aren't there?

Thank you, exactly my point. Not that I mind people being nice but it's just the commercialism behind the whole thing.

Well, there's a religious part of it too, but most people seem to only think about the gifts and decorations. That's the part that's always bothersome.

[perplexme]

The thing is most people forget about the religious part and skip straight to the fat guy in the red suit. It just seems like a waste of time to find a pine tree, shove breakable stuff on the branches, and then place boxes of materialistic artificial things under it. People spend months preparing for it, maybe even the whole year, and then it's over in the course of maybe 20 minutes.

[Oh, here that, you made her laugh with that comment on Santa.]

Exactly. Those things aren't even supposed to be the main focus of the holiday.

[perplexme]

[Very curious now because she's the first one to agree with him who actually knows what Christmas is] What do you think is the main focus then, from your perspective I mean.

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

Well, I'm not a big fan of the holidays to begin with, but I think the religious part is more of the main focus. Not that I'm religious or anything, but that's my opinion. The gifts, decorations, and stuff just aren't that important.

....what's your name?

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

Bella Swan. What's yours?

[perplexme]

...Bella. You seem to disappear a lot, don't you? [has previously had a conversation with Edward about her]

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

What makes you ask me that? [Wasn't expecting to be asked that.]

[perplexme]

You're that girl he loves. [kind of just skirting around the question, making his own observations and connections in his mind]

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

Wait a minute! You found this all out from Edward, didn't you?

[perplexme]

Perhaps. Maybe, I don't really know. It was a long time ago, somewhere around September or so. [Roxas doesn't actually know Edward's name, so he's assuming it's the same guy]

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

Well, he's the only one I can think of who might be talking to people about me.

[perplexme]

The only thing I really remember about that was he was very...angsty about the fact you were gone. Again. So obviously I asked and he mentioned you and some other stuff so...I figured you were that girl, since the name's the same.

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

Sounds like him, and I do remember being kidnapped around that time, so yes, I'm the same girl.

[perplexme]

Interesting. I'm Roxas.

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

What's interesting?

[perplexme]

Nothing important really.

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

It doesn't have to be important for you to tell me.

[perplexme]

The whole concept is interesting really. Of love I mean.

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

Have you never loved anyone before?

[perplexme]

Technically speaking, we don't have feelings. No feelings, no emotions. I'm used to it, though I like to think differently. It's...complicated really.

[outofplaceklutz.livejournal.com]

So you don't feel happy or sad, or anything? That's different.

[perplexme]

I was told that I don't. I beg to differ. But whether I do or not it doesn't matter, I wouldn't recognize love if it bit me on the ass.
