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!]

. . . do you even know how to make one, Togami-kun?

[ He's actually pretty curious about this... ]

[tellthemnaegi]

I... Of course I do!

[...Does he really?]

I mean, I haven't done it before. [That he remembers...] But I know the theory behind it. It's not exactly rocket science.

[bulletofhope]

If it's that simple for you, then it shouldn't be that difficult for you to show me what a 10 out of 10 snowman's supposed to look like, right?

[ . . . NAEGI... ]

[tellthemnaegi]

...Is that a challenge?

[T-Togami... why are you sounding so serious about it...]

[bulletofhope]

. . . it might be?

[ Naegi, no. Don't encourage him. ]

[tellthemnaegi]

...

Usually I wouldn't dream of involving myself in something so childish, but I refuse to back down. Fine.

[Then he reaches down to the snow- oh god, is he actually for real? He's seriously starting to build a snowman.

Somehow, despite his expression being arrogant and serious as always, he almost seems to be... enjoying himself? Ah, no, it's probably just your imagination.]

[bulletofhope]

[ Naegi would almost be laughing at him if he weren't trying to be so serious about this snowman thing. Oh, Togami...

Either way, Naegi's just gonna continue making snowmen, until... ]

... ah! Togami-kun, yours looks like it might fall over any second...!

[tellthemnaegi]

Be quiet. I know what I'm doing!

[Does he...? It doesn't seem like it. But geez, he sure is prideful.

That snowman really is a mess, though. Even if he hadn't admitted as much earlier, it's obvious he's never done this before.]

I just need to... reinforce it? Yes, that should work.

[It barely even resembles a proper snowman at this point.]

[bulletofhope]

[ T O G A M I . . . ]

U-uh... I guess that could work, but how would you even get the reinforcement inside the snowman?

[ Seriously. Togami. Stop. Just... stop... ]

[tellthemnaegi]

[He just kind of... stares at the end result. That's definitely not a 10 out of 10. No, even calling it a 1 out of 10 seems far too nice...]

...

[Naegi... Maybe you should go easy on him. It looks like this already struck quite a blow...]

[bulletofhope]

[ . . . that's actually a little sad. Naegi can't bring himself to laugh at Togami, that would be like kicking a guy when he's down...

Even though Togami's surely done that many times, he can't do it. It's just not him. ]

. . . I can show you how to make one, if you'd like?

[tellthemnaegi]

If you want to, I won't stop you.

[...

That means yes.]

[bulletofhope]

[ Oh, Togami... ]

Well... all right. Come and help me make one of these, then! It'll be easier for me to show and explain along the way instead of just standing here talking about it.

[tellthemnaegi]

...Fine. Consider yourself fortunate. I don't allow just anyone to make use of my time like this.

[L... Lucky you, Naegi? Maybe?]

Even though I still classify this as a waste of time.

[He can't stress enough that he really has NOTHING better to do.]

[bulletofhope]

[ Still as condescending as ever. Nice to know some things haven't changed, even after the Calamity... ]

Well, I'll just have to make sure that I don't waste it, then...

[ Seriously, don't you have cash to count or caviar to sample or something- oh, wait. :| !!! ]

[tellthemnaegi]

[R U D E]

Let's hope you're capable of that.

[bulletofhope]

[ Don't make him push you into the snow, Togami. He'll do it and ruin your fine clothes and he will regret absolutely nothing. ]

...

I'll let you be the judge of that.

[ So he says as he begins his snowman lessons... ]
