How does time work? Do I have to learn new names for months and stuff?
A day in real life is a day for our characters, and you can still call the first month of the year ‘January’. Just like it’s easiest for our “common language” to be English, it’s easiest for us to stick to our own modern calendar. There are always exceptions, though. You may be in the middle of an rp and have to go afk unexpectedly– go ahead and ‘freeze’ your characters where they are and continue later. When you start again, you don’t have to pretend that a few days or a week went by. Just pick up where you left off and don’t worry about it. You’d be surprised how much time really doesn’t matter. Likewise, if you’d like to celebrate modern holidays, you had better have a character-appropriate reason for celebrating.
