Video - Regarding the holidays

Ugh.. how can you stand all of this holiday drivel?

[There's the sound of caroling in the background]

It's so .. so.. nauseating. I don't think I'll be able to stand another week of this.

...What sort of holiday is it?

[Someone's never heard of Christmas before.]

[Somebody looks at this guy like "what planet have you been on.. " -- ah but she smiles at the thought that there's someone unfamiliar with Earth]

It's a pathetic little Earth holiday.. that doesn't deserve being mentioned by name.

If you haven't heard of it, consider yourself lucky.

Earth, hmm?

Is the holiday really that terrible?

It's a backwards little world virtually devoid of magic.

What's to like about that saccharine saturated sentimentality?

That's interesting...

...What is there to not like about it?

Everything.

The lights, the insufferable noise they call music, that disgusting way people go around pretending to be nice to one another. Ick, the mere thought of if makes me ill...

[What does she mean "pretending to be nice"?]

...And I suppose you don't enjoy being nice?

[..Because after January 1st, the Earthlings go back to ignoring one another's existence from her point of view]

Why should I bother? Being nice never gets you anywhere.

That's not true at all.

.. And where has it gotten you?

You're stuck in this troll-forsaken other realm.

Holiday?

[It's been awhile since she celebrated anything, she doesn't even know what date it is right now.]

Forgive me for asking, but which holiday?

The winter solstice.. [Sarcasm]

What do you think? [It's name has been in enough of these carols for someone to have overheard it by now]

Ah yes.

[She remembers that, as she recalls it was always fun. She doesn't understand why this one here doesn't like it.]

I enjoyed it once, a long time ago. I suppose I can get back into the spirit.

[Because she hates anything nice or cute. Christmas is dripping with those things]

I wouldn't waste your time.

I suppose the Holidays aren't for everyone.

[Just when you thought it couldn't get any worse... guess who one of the carolers is! ]

We wish you a merry Christmas and a Happy New Year~

[Grits her teeth tightly together and balls her fists. I oughta turn this little failure of a witch into a pumpkin!]

[A singing pumpkin!? ]

Hark, the herald angel siiinnnnggg,

[Oh hi friend witch! *WAVE* ]

glory to the newborn king...

[A mute pumpkin]

Will you stop that infernal racket!

Oh!

[The carolers are all startled into stopping. ]

Don't you like that song? Maybe we could sing something else?

A simple blast of magic helps. They have enough of a sense of survival to scatter.

[She smirks wickedly]

I don't believe we've met before, but I like your style.

No, we have not. [There's no real smirk on his face, just traces of that ever-present scowl of his.] I am Magus.

Magus huh? That's not a name you hear everyday. The name is Icy.

[Of course, it's not his actual name but only his sister calls him that these days.]

Nor is Icy.

[Now that that's out of the way]

So what's you're claim to fame? Have any powers? Ambitions?

I am a master of shadow magic and thus fully capable of using light, water, and fire magic. I was the prince of the kingdom of Zeal and became the king of the Mystics. My ambition... [And he pauses. Because he's a bit furious about this. She had been here. And now...]is my own.

What of yourself?

Where's your spirit? It can't be that bad.

I've never had any spirit for this holiday.

It's not like I'm from Earth originally either. Only complete losers are from Earth.

Wait a minute. You know earth or you're just talkin'?

There's always a scrooge this time of year. A pity. You're too pretty to be frowning.

[She misses the Charles Dickens reference since she's not from Earth but the meaning is clear enough from the following context.]

..And that is too corny for anyone to take seriously.

[I know I'm pretty and I don't need some guy to tell me that]

At least I'm not lying, right?

[He likes girls like you.]

And what's your deal against the holidays, never get you want?

I didn't think there'd be so many Christians here, and it seems like they're starting way too early.

[ He's not familiar with the secular celebrations, and has only heard a little bit about Eastern Orthodox Christmas.]

They shouldn't start at all. It's bothersome for the rest of us.

[Whether its the religious portion or the secular bit Icy hates it mutually XD]

It's not too bad in the Land of Dragons.

[Small smirk]

I find a bullet usually quiets those pesky noises.
