( to everyone )

[cobrakais]

So, that guy the other day —

( sam, the guy was sam. )

He talked about that holiday with the bird and the eating and the sitting around and talking about the good times. Never really got that myself but I made due.

Anyway, after that is the big holiday for the people from my planet. The one where you put up a tree that makes a mess, decorate until you're the most gaudy house on the street and get presents.

But, getting the feeling that not everyone does that here. So, what do you do? If you do the gift giving holiday, what other traditions do you have?

If you don't, what do you do? If anything, I guess? Maybe you don't do squat and that's sad.

Bee tee dubs, if you're looking for a gift to give me, I could use a coat. It's cold in Farm City.

Genocide wasn't really on the table, I don't think. Even Turians have limits, when it comes to casually exterminating whole sentient species for no good reason.

I'm a marine with the Systems Alliance Navy. Commander Shepard. You?

[cobrakais]

Kai Parker. I don't have a fancy title. Never got around to getting one.

Definitely not a marine or in anything resembling the military. I think they'd have kicked me out anyway. Not really great at taking orders.

You might be surprised.

[It would be so easy to get bitter about the Alliance, some days.]

Sorry I can't help you with the coat thing. If you ever want to come live in the Free Cities, though, I'm sure we could get you set up.

[cobrakais]

That's okay. I'm sure someone from Solvunn will take pity on me.

What's the Free Cities like?
