[As the feed begins, it's probably not difficult to tell that Eley is in another of his thoughtful moods, and is likely about to pose a question to the Lucetians once again. For even though the Spirit had learned of the concept of 'fun', there was still something that seemed to run alongside this that he hadn't quite found an understanding for. One might call it a sense of humour.]

What exactly does it mean to tell a 'joke'? And how can you tell the difference between one that is good and one that is bad?

[Another Christmas had passed, embarrassing moments exchanged but also good, positive moments as well. Though Eley did not usually have much of a sense of time, other than the seasons coming and going, these human holidays always seemed to make the time pass much faster for him, he was finding.

That didn't mean that he wanted time to pass that quickly, however, and now Eley was trying to find a moment to sit and relax. This time, he found himself in the forest, wondering how much of it might have changed since he'd arrived after all the fighting and experiments... Saleh had shown him how to build a bonfire and despite his instinctive wariness of the fire, there had been something strangely relaxing about staring into the gently flickering flames. He didn't have Saleh's magic to make the fire with, but he could at least practice the construction. So anyone who's passing through might find him searching for large stones and tinder, or wander past a half-constructed stone circle that the Spirit had left nearby.]

[Spock's amused face appears...]

From what I am aware, a joke is a statement or phrase that is said with the sole purpose of amusement. Whether the joke is good or bad, I believe, varies depending on your own personal sense of humour.

Why do you ask?

Usually they're something you say, or point out in a certain way that's funny. You know you didn't get it right if people stare at you like you're an alien before shaking their head and sighing.

[She get's that reaction a lot...]

What, they don't have jokes where you come from?

A joke is...well, sometimes it's a question you ask, and then you give the answer to it and it's something funny, or sometimes it's a story and the ending is funny. A good one makes you laugh, and a bad one makes you want to punch whoever told it.

[Tsuzuki, on the other hand, took great care to remember all the seasons and festivals that came through the year. It reminded him that there were things to be grateful for.

Like having a house, and someone to talk to. Not having to escort dead people to their next destination. Tsuzuki was grateful for that, even though he missed his friends. And because he missed his friends, he tended to seek out the friends he had made in Luceti, like Eleytheria. He didn't know what to make of the collection of rocks and twigs, however.]

Stones? Why do you want stones?

[Ven tilts his head, bringing a hand to his chin. He's never heard of jokes before? Well, that's not too surprising, given that he didn't fully understand emotions before, either.

Well, that's what friends are for!]

Well, jokes are things you tell people to make 'em laugh. There's tons of different kinds, but as far as good or bad ones go, I think that depends on your sense of humor! Everyone's gonna have different tastes.
