[Irene turns on the video feed, and while she looks just as put together as ever, her office looks a bit messier than usual – you can see her desk in the background, covered with notes and unorganized papers…which is pretty normal for a desk, really, just not for Irene’s desk. Has she been distracted?

She seems to be in a very good mood, though! Her smile looks more genuine than her usual calm, customer service face.]

Everyone, I wanted to ask you a few questions. Now, we have a lot of holidays here in Saeng Seong. Several of you were here for our last festival, and we’re going to have another one coming up at the end of this month… [oh!] which I’m not sure we’ve notified you about yet, but we’ll have more details later.

Our city – our world - has a long history, but I’m also sure that your worlds do, too. I guess what I’m trying to say is that I’m curious – what are some of the important traditions from your worlds? What holidays do you celebrate?

[She was going to end the video there, but she stops, reconsidering.]

On another note, regarding the fall festival I mentioned earlier, we’re currently open to suggestions if you all have any. I’ll be keeping track of comments here myself, and I can pass on information to the committee.

[Okay it's Irene. Maybe she didn't hear what he did last month. Even if she did he figures it wouldn't hurt to try talking. Now smile.]

There are a bunch of holidays back where I come from. Some of 'em have a lot of tradition or religious meaning to people, and then there are some other more obscure occasions that they say businesses made up to encourage people to spend their money. I can easily tell you about how things go in my country, but between other countries some holidays are different as you'd expect.

The closest holiday back home would be Halloween. Do you have that here?

You have the audacity to ask?

.. "Suggestions"? [ He frowns a little. He still isn't sure about anything involving the people in charge of this place.. ]

Don't you have any specific way to celebrate your festival?

Why do you not share your long history with the rest of us?

[someonetowatchoveryou]

My people do not celebrate holidays.

[Unlike the others, September doesn't sound insulted or annoyed or confused. He doesn't sound... anything, really. His voice is calm and even without being monotone, his face expressionless without being blank.]

If you prefer, I can compile a list of applicable ones through time that I have observed.

[ Hee. ] You'd really like to hear them all?
