Quest 278

I've heard it mentioned, you know, that today is Father's Day, along with being the second day of all the visitors stopping by to pay a call.

It does all line up rather neatly that way, doesn't it? We spent a whole week popping around to other worlds and acting like visitors ourselves, and now we're back here where we started and it's our turn to play the hosts instead. Though I imagine that even our poorest reception is still better than some of the other ones extended in the past few days.

I think everyone always wants to see the people they know and miss on days like this, and I'm certainly no exception. But at the same time...well, if they don't come, then I hope that's a sign that they're happy where they are, and free, and doing well. I think I could take that as ample consolation.

...But Daddy, if you're here, this is your day! It's meant just for you. And there's nothing I'd like more than to spend it with you.

If something comes up that I don't want her to know, I'll just have her forget it, so have a party--anything goes! HIT HER WITH EVERYTHING YOU'VE GOT. Troll, threadjack, have a ball!

And of course, I am totally okay with backdating. ♥]

That's very thoughtful of you. I'm sure he'll enjoy it very much.

What have you given your father in gratitude?

Well, I...haven't seen mine yet today, I'm afraid. And we didn't have this holiday in Daventry, so we've never much celebrated it before. But all the same, I don't think it takes a holiday to be thankful for one's father, or to tell him so. Or to go to any lengths necessary to help him.

Holidays would be a grand start. I hope that you and your father are well today.

I think so, too. And I'm certainly well, thank you! And if I see Daddy I'll be certain to pass on your good wishes. It's truly an honor to have the favor of a personage so august as yourself.
