Happy Mog's Day!

What's Mog's Day? Well, it's not surprising you haven't heard of it, since it isn't an Earth holiday. It's a fall celebration marking the end of the season, before moogles enter their annual hibernation. A simple drawing of a moogle (a white, vaguely koala-like animal with small bat wings) was included in the invitation. On arrival, guests will be asked to don a large red nose, out of respect for Mog. The hosts are exempt from this, given they're the ones throwing the party and all.

Want a tour of the house? The hosts are not familiar with the concept of a housewarming party, but that's essentially what this is, and any of them would probably show you around if you like. They've just moved, but there's no sign of boxes. Rather, the bookshelves and decor seem a little sparse, their belongings having migrated from a smaller space. You may catch glimpses of a large orange cat slinking around behind the furniture. He has not yet adjusted to his new surroundings, and all the strangers aren't helping.

A catered dinner is laid out on the dining room table. (They can cook, they just... didn't.) There's also a chocolate cake waiting in the kitchen for later. It's for Loki; Sephiroth doesn't really care about cake.

The nearby back door leads out into the yard, and the fire pit. Arranged on a table are some materials one might use to create a simple effigy of someone you particularly hate. There's also a bag of marshmallows, seemingly as an afterthought.

"You really are," he says with a smile. "And adapting is something to be lauded. BUt don't let it take away from who you really are."

"I mean whoever you are? Be true to that too. Some people change so much that when they look back, they find they aren't themselves anymore. In ways that hurt. For each person that will be a unique experience."

So they have to be true to themselves, even when that self changes.

"Very fair," David says with a nod. "I hope you have come to know who you've learned you are."

"It is. And that isn't a bad thing to recognize."

He offers the man one more smile before giving himself a little stretch. "If it is alright, I do need to seek my love out."

Of course love is an identifier. There's only one man here he'd ever call by that, so why wouldn't it be?

"I doubt he does. Or that he'd get up to mischief. But I can't imagine he can see this place and not imagine some remodeling for ourselves, and we really don't need it."

"No, I don't think I would use the word 'jealous'. Rather 'inspired'. My love is a very artistic man and can find ideas in interesting places."

And they had just gotten things in a nice way.

"I shall," David says with a smile and a nod. It's important for him to get to that. So he offers his host a brief bow and turns to head off. Now if only he could find the guy.
