[Dorian is in one of the tea rooms, and he has decided to dress in nice morning wear for this video. Everything seems presentable for the video. He clears his throat.]

Good day, everyone. If I haven't gotten my days mixed up, Valentine's day should be tomorrow. Wonderful, isn't it?

[He chuckles a little, as if to offset the horrible worry he has to share.]

I couldn't help but notice, though, how Wonderland seems to give us some horrid event almost every time we attempt to celebrate major holiday. For example, Halloween had the magic candy, and Christmas had the, er, the non-dreams.

So! Do any of you have any idea how to go about Valentine's day trying to avoid whatever this place brings us, or do we just have to play along and hope for the best?

Call them what you like...

Wait, stuffed angel terriers? Do you mean the animal or the toy?

[Disturbing either way.]

Their dead pets. [ Coraline intones flatly in agreement- real creepy.]

... Ugh...

... That is horrid. Do they not have the decency to at least put the poor creatures in a cemetery instead of using their bodies to decorate the house?

[doorkey]

I... I guess not?

It's their way of keeping them around forever, maybe. But it's sort of creepy, to have them all staring at you.

[Dorian scoffs at the notion.]

It's probably an indicator that they are too bloody sentimental to let go of the dead things...

[He clears his throat.] Pardon my French.

[doorkey]

Huh? French?

I'm not tellin' anybody you said bloody-anything to a kid, but if they come after you with a bar of soap, that's your own business!

[Dorian chuckles at Coraline's reaction.]

Glad to see you're of a strong constitution, Coraline.
