Questions
Who: Meetra Surik and Open
Where: All around Hinoto-Ri
Summary: Meetra is trying to figure out the weather shenanigans, and generally failing
Warnings: Demons?
Hot, cold, hot, cold, hot, cold. The pattern was easy to see and impossible to explain. Today, particularly, it had been hot, and tonight, particularly, it was the New Moon. It was time, as far as Meetra was concerned, to go ask the demon population of the city now that she'd exhausted talking to the human civilians during the day and was fairly certain that none of her fellow guests had the slightest clue beyond this not being normal for this planet.
Meetra was trying several places. First and foremost, she asked demons around and throughout the city. Everyone had their ideas, but as the night went on, she seemed to get no closer to a clear answer, even from the elemental-themed fairies (though their opinions were the loudest). She also checked around the Mictlan (normal levels of government and weird mountain demon activity), with the night owls at the police station in Leo (above their pay grade), and anywhere else in the city that might know anything about the environment.
Barring some kind of divine or Force-based intervention, she was rather frustrated by the time the 13th Hour was approaching. Maybe she'd run into someone who'd know then, or maybe she'd just find someone to help against an aggressive demon. She did have her lightsaber with her.

Crunch crunch crunch.
"But it's the 21st when Capricorn swings around. I don't know why you humans think the stars have anything to do with your destiny, but it comes in handy for fortune-telling."

She admitted that fairly casually, but was still quick to change the subject. "That's also this planet's Winter Solstice, isn't it? That seems like a pretty good candidate for 'portentous date'."

"Magic has to be internally consistent. Since it's a nonsensical system, anyway, there's no harm bending the rules a little so it applies evenly to everyone - forget different galaxies, most worlds probably don't even have the same stars."
Viridi doesn't sound like she cares too much about further investigation of this topic.
"And yeah, basically. You know that's what you're celebrating anyway, right? Most cultures come up with a winter festival around this time of year for the same reason."

"Honestly, I'm thinking that's more to do with your universal sloppiness than anything else. Let anything sit around long enough and it's going to ferment. Though you have to wonder which idiot decides to drink the juice oozing out of rotting grapes first."
Viridi conveniently forgets mentioning Dionysus or her pantheon's equivalent.

"I'm more concerned with who started rendering down the trash parts of staple crops in a distillery, myself. Wine at least makes sense if someone's desperate enough to have to eat spoiled fruit."

Not that that had been a terrible idea in the long run re: ice cream.

"Anyway. I don't know if this has anything to do with Zodiac signs or Saturnalia or whatever, but something's gonna happen near the end of the month."

A pause.
"..........To, um, share with you in your victory. And that kind of thing."
