AND A PARTRIII~DGE IN A PEAR TREEEEE

23; A Partridge in a Pear Tree
A giant pear tree has sprung up in the middle of the Square and despite the weather it's already bearing tons of sweet delicious fruit. Of course each fruit belongs to a citizen and there's no way of knowing whose pear is whose. Eat a pear belonging to someone else and you'll see a memory of a Christmas they experienced.

Who wouldn't want fresh fruit in winter? Eat and be merry...and intrusive. Those aren't sugar plum visions, those are memories of Christmases past for someone else. These memories play out like a home movie. They can be as joyful as finally getting that Red Rider BB gun or heartbreaking as the time Grandma got ran over by a reindeer. 

Characters who don't celebrate Christmas can use a memory of what they were doing during the equivalent of winter season like when Han was able to get Chewie back to Kashyyyk for Life Day or that winter the vampires took over the small Alaskan town.

Comment here to offer up your wintry memory and to pick a pear for your character to eat! Remember there is a pear for everyone. These pears can be shared so that two characters may experience one character's memory by eating the same pear. If a character wants to share a pear that can be arranged here as well!

Woe to any characters who become greedy! A lovely (large) partridge sits at the top of the tree and will attack any who try to eat too many pears. This bossy bird cannot be killed. While it may be a bird it has sharp talons and a pointy beak that won't quit. It will return to the tree once it drives the offending character away.

At midnight the fruit and tree will vanish in a snowy, feathery flurry.

Sounds awesome to me. I've seen a little of the satellite, back when I read............... Identity Crisis. A million years ago. So I know what you're talking about.

Oh that's just. Yeah, we don't talk about awful comics they refuse to retcon (or at least retcon specific parts of). Even with the reboot, Didio still claims it happened in the new universe BASICALLY I'M SORRY THAT YOU READ THAT :(

Is what I'm getting at :')

Sorry, I just got back from work and dyin'!! You're lucky this is at all legible tbh

I have been baffled and squeamish about DCU for a while. I have been lured back into tentatively caring by the new Death in the Family. IDK IF IT WILL LAST.

Ma'am, you should go rest your hard-worked brain. There's no need to be legible here.

NO, IGNORE IT, IGNORE IT!!! Don't let it suck you in like they tried to do to me with all of its magic user titles!!

I literally passed out right after that. Anyway, now that I'm passably legible (as per usual), if you'd like to work something specific out, I am up for it. :3a
