this probably comes off really offensive but that sounds like exactly the thing your family would do.

[ jealous? bonnie? never... brunch at her dad's was never exciting but she can't deny missing it a little. ]

it sounds really nice.

[deathlessness]

Not offensive at all. And it is. I've never really had holiday traditions, so it's nice that they've adopted me into theirs.

[goeth]

adopted? is that how it feels for you?

[ :( ]

[deathlessness]

Well, we didn't celebrate Christmas when I was still with them. So it's not as though these are our parents traditions passed down to us. They're Klaus and Rebekah and Elijah's, and they share them with me.

[So not in a sense that she doesn't feel like she's part of the family, but more that the family is learning something new.]

[goeth]

ohh i see. that makes it seem a lot more special, then. i mean, the extent of traditions in my family was stockings on christmas eve.

[deathlessness]

Still, at least you were spending time with each other. That's an opportunity not everyone gets.

[Traditions are important, but quality family time is more important, at least in Freya's mind.]

[goeth]

i'm starting to get that now, yeah. i never had a normal family, but i think i definitely appreciate them more lately. which is weird-- i'll forget that if i ever do go back.

[deathlessness]

I'm sure you'll find your way to realize it again. Most people usually do.
