Episode 171
If you are a new reader, you might want to subscribe to “Holiday Wars” as well as start reading it from the beginning. Once you’re caught up on the main storyline then checkout the side stories in “Tales of Holiday’s Past.”
Because of her tie to The World Tree, Gaia is definitely the most inhuman of all the Holidays. This episode is the perfect example. If it were Tegan up there she’d just flat out tell Friday whatever it was she was trying to say, but Gaia can’t do that. She lacks the social skills and thus goes about things in a very round about way.
I love the Flying Fish Analogy. I haven't heard it before, but if you didn't make it up I suspect it has a Native American origin. It just has that "nature story with a moral" feel to it that is so common to Native American stories.
Very appropriate for Gaia, of course!
It's a hodge podge of a few different stories that I've heard and made my own. Though it wouldn't surprise me if there was a real fable/myth/something.
also very annoying too she can be fickle at times, ahha why would she say bring water with him he going to the garden, unless of course she plan to be at the garden thru the water..
Gaia doesn't know what the note said. She was busy when Friday got it.
that is really good advice to be honest…i think it means like be careful what you do or say or where you go because you do have holidays against you…i hope he gets to the bottem of this.
Yeah she's basically saying "watch your back."
yeah, it does seem to scream that i think the gopher is with the wassiscally{ elmer fudd would say for bugs} wabbit..
When you began this story, did you imagine Black Friday would become a prominent character?
Good question! I'm going to move it to the TGT blog post & answer it during my podcast interview next Sunday.
Give you advice, I will.
Anyways, why isn't Gaia wet?
Earth Day. She can control all the elements, including water.
In the words of Admiral Ackbar…IT'S A TRAP!
