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.

sob, Justin T_T Certainly, it is his.

I feel like Isaak has a wide variety of Christmases. Reasonably happy standard Christmases with his family back home up until twelve or so; lonesome Christmases in his mostly-deserted school in England; lonesome Christmases ignoring various parties and the like for, well, most of his adult life; a couple of brief and happy Christmases with Viktor. Anything you like, really.

/goes to review that bit

As much as I would like to have Checkers see a homey Christmas, I'd be very interested in a lonesome Christmas memory. Chekov has some of those, too; he'd latch right on to Isaak.

maybe a young lonesome Christmas? It was... not a terribly good time in his life; he didn't go home because he didn't want to go home (and in all honesty his father didn't much want him to come home,) so it was just him and any other students who had nowhere to go hanging around. And as Isaak was having a rather dark patch he didn't much want to socialize with them so. ;_;

Awww, Isaak! I would love that and it would really move Checkers.

Checkers just doesn't need to know why Isaak ended up in that school. >:

Well... we can't share all of our secrets.
