Investigation 10

[Action: Mayfield shops]

[Sarah Jane can be found shopping for Christmas gifts. She occasionally picks up an item and places it in her basket.

Sometimes she picks something up and sets it back down.]

No, that's something Luke would like.

[Later in the day, her shopping expedition takes on much more focus and determination and she examines such things as paper supplies and makes notes.]

Yes, that might work...

[Action: In and around 2238 Stevens]

[Sarah Jane returns home from the shops and tucks her purchases into a closet before stopping in the living room to readjust the picture of her with Luke and his friends. Once she finishes there she goes back outside to hang a wreath on the door with a small shake of her head.]

It's largely focused in Europe and North America in my time, though Japan also has a certain fondness for it. It started out as a Christian religious celebration but has become increasingly secular. And a lot of cultures have some sort of festival around this time.

[She did not really understand most of that, but...] So the humans of this place and your own. [She supposed she should have assumed that from the start.]

A festival... [She thinks back to the great festival in Chel, the last thing from her home she remembers.]

Yes. It's a bit... strange, having it here. Many cultures mark the upcoming winter solstice in one way or another.
