Day 309 [Open]

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.]

Not precisely forever given that it was tied to her lifeforce, but easily long enough to drive anyone mad. It was part of why she commanded such respect and fear as a leader.

[...Come to think of it, he can't entirely remember if he'd actually mentioned that his people are largely matriarchal before. Ah well.]

[His smile slowly turns a little strained (and perhaps even slightly nervous?) at the thought of the two meeting.]

Under different circumstances, I'm sure she would have felt the same. As it is, I fear the chance of that meeting ending the way things ended for Latona far to high for my comfort.

[Everything in his tone and body language says that the event he was referring to was preeeetty bad.]
four_quarts: (Nothing much to say.)

Latona was something of an older sister to me, though what she really wanted was to be my sister-in-law. Since my brother died without ever acknowledging her affections, and this, combined with an inability to accept that we were remnants of a bygone era, slowly drove her mad.

To spare you the details, the Guildmistress was eventually forced to immolate Latona in self defense. Not a fun thing to witness before you've even hit puberty.

...I'm sure you can see how this relates to Xenobia.

[You are a gem, Anya. This is why you are his favorite currently living person.]

Yes, I think we should change topics. It's much too nice a day to be thinking about all the people I've managed to outlive after a fashion.

[He claps his hands together and goes back to smiling.]

So, how did you go about creating a temporary change in the weather?
four_quarts: (I suppose so.)

Oh no, I'm quite aware of that, my dear; what I wanted to know was what specifically you did to achieve this since I'm sure it's rather different than what I might have done.
