Day 309 [Open]

[dontyoujustwish]

Who: Anya, Ibuki, Patchouli, and anyone else!
Open: Open! Mostly.
When: Day 309
Where: All over the Bastion
What: SNOW!
Format: I'll match
Warnings: It's Anya.

[For Ibuki and Patchouli]
[Sometime after lunch, Anya takes off to look for two of her best lady friends with a spellbook under her arm and some key ingredients in her pockets.

She's quite cheerful about it, a little oblivious to whatever else might have been going on lately. Cheerful, and insistent. She will track you down.]


[Open to All]
[Later in the day, Bastionites may be surprised to look up and notice that... it's snowing. Not only that, but the temperature has dropped.

At least in the more southerly parts of the Bastion. The farmlands might get a few sporadic flurries, but it isn't cold enough there to stick.

So if you've been missing snowmen or snowball fights or any of those activities that require winter to happen, now's your chance. It's probably not going to last very long.]

((OOC: And feel free to just use this post for mingling!]

Me neither.

But maybe for someone else it feels like home.

[amnesiadragon]

I guess. I don't really have warm clothes for it... I hope it goes away soon.

[daughterofursa]

I've got a coat if you want to borrow it.

[amnesiadragon]

But then you wouldn't have a coat.

[daughterofursa]

I'm a firebender. I can keep myself warm.

[amnesiadragon]

... My fire skill isn't very good, and I don't want to transform here if I don't have to.

[... So he will take your coat, Zuko. But expect to be repaid in fish.]

[daughterofursa]

[Fish are good?]

All right. Come on, I left it at my place.

[This means you will have to venture into the snow but it's not far thankfully. Also Zuko is still moving very carefully as she hasn't fully healed yet.]

[amnesiadragon]

[He follows along, but looks worried at the way she's walking.]

Can I help?

[He doesn't want to say that he can do anything for her since she probably won't like that, but... help is nice. Right?]

[daughterofursa]

Help with what?

[She can still walk and she knows the way to her own house.]

[amnesiadragon]

You're hurt.

[It might be enough, but if she's hurt she shouldn't go on the Skyway.]

[daughterofursa]

I'm healing.

Don't worry about it.

[amnesiadragon]

... You're my friend, though. So I worry about it.

[That's how it works, right?]

[daughterofursa]

I'll be fine.

[amnesiadragon]

... Okay.

[But he needs to protect his friends!]

You're... you're really nice.

[daughterofursa]

[What? Where did that come from, she's not doing anything!]

I- I'm not really nice.

[Just a little nice? Sort of nice? Definitely not really nice.]

[amnesiadragon]

Yes you are. Even if you don't think you are, I think you are.

[daughterofursa]

You're the nice one.

[amnesiadragon]

... That doesn't mean you're not. It's not like there can be only one nice person.

[daughterofursa]

But if you said to someone, "you know, the nice one," they might think of you. They wouldn't think of me.

[amnesiadragon]

How do you know?

[daughterofursa]

...

Because.

[amnesiadragon]

Because why?

[daughterofursa]

It's just not how people think of me. Except for you.

[Oh look it's her house. Let's get in it so she can give you her coat which is totally not that nice a thing to do.]

[amnesiadragon]

Why not?

[If you expected him to drop it, Zuko, you are sadly mistaken. But he takes the coat and shrugs it on. It's good that he's small, so he fits in most things.]

Thank you.

[daughterofursa]

[Zuko has to think about this for a moment.]

Don't nice people usually smile more?

[Niceness and friendliness and all that are supposed to go together.

Meanwhile Kizuna has heard them come in and comes over to say hello. Or at least chirp at them from a safe distance from the door. It is cold out there, why is it cold what is cold.]
