Can you feel the love tonight?

Characters: EVERYBODY
Date: 14 February
Location: Anywhere
Situation: It's VALENTINE'S DAY! Flowers, candy, love notes, dancing, and dates... Maybe you don't have Valentine's Day on your world, but plenty of the foreigners do, and those who have found love on the turtle will be happy to tell you all about the holiday. Some of the more enthusiastic foreigners may even try to play matchmaker with their unattached fellows...
Warnings/Rating: Lovey-dovey nonsense, smooching, romance, and maybe people getting a little frisky. It is Valentine's Day, after all. Further warnings will be added if anything gets really steamy.



No plans for the big day? Feeling a little lost? Well, why don't you:

• Build a snowman together! Embrace your inner child.
• Give your lover a big box of... chocolate? Well, there's technically no chocolate in Keeliai, but maybe a kedan confectioner can whip you up something close enough. Or if you're feeling adventurous, you could go to a candy shop together and experiment with the local sweets.
• Go dancing and engage in some pan-galactic cultural exchange. Teach your partner one of the beloved dances of your home universe, like salsa, or the foxtrot, or the electric slide.
• Baby, it's cold outside. Maybe you should stay in for the day. Cook a meal together, light some candles, drink the most expensive alcohol you can afford, and take some time to appreciate each other's company. Nothing says "romance" more than fancy wine and a candlelit dinner for two.
• What better excuse to take a chance on romance? Ask out that person you've had your eye on.
• Set up your friend. You're satisfied with your relationship or lack thereof, but somebody you know is pining, so get out your bow and quiver and cupid wings and find them a potential sweetheart. What's the worst that can happen? Don't answer that.
• No date? Grab a friend and go out to a fancy dinner with each other to celebrate Singles Awareness Day. Platonic love is important too!

If worshiping spirits was an Avatar thing, it came long after Wan was an Avatar. He didn't understand any of the religion stuff.

But the solstice festivals, that was something he could talk about.

"Well, in the city I grew up in, most of our festivals were ones where everyone was supposed to show up in masks or barter for a mask at the festival. There would be food, people putting on plays, displays of brightly colored dancers, that sort of thing. They'd go all night and it was pretty fun."

"I don't think anyone gets it, that's how religion works," Gene says.

He nods a little when Wan explains the season festival. "That sounds like fun, actually. And makes a lot more sense than some of the holidays people celebrate at home. Back where I come from, we have the Mid-Autumn Festival, among other things. It's about the harvest, and the moon."

Excuse the dumb icon. :V

"The Solstices are still a big deal in the Fire Nation. And we have festivals celebrating fire itself."

Like the Fire Days festival. That one had often been pushed on villages that the Fire Nation had been trying to conform. But well. We won't go into that part.
