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

[Okay no that's a lie, Anya will find her taking a restless nap ... in front of the doors of her music venue???]
[It's like she just randomly fell over there and decided to take a nap on the spot or something]

Zulf - OTA
[Holy crap.]
[The rattletails have been let loose and are frolicking about happily in the snow, and Zulf is humming a low tune under his breath as he works on building a little snow fort for the Cubone hopping about at his feet.]
[Help him out? Or throw a snowball at his head, you can do that too.]

Helmsman - OTA
[A worrying amount of time, probably.]
[Still, he sometimes randomly starts rolling, gives a flail, and then flops to lay still again.]
[He's... happy?? Maybe??]
[Someone should probably do something before he gets sick.]

Georges - OTA
Whoo! [Georges is bundled up as best he can be with what they have, and grinning wide from beneath his bandana.] Who do I need to thank for the change in weather?
[But he's got a little table set up, a set of bottles and some glasses. For those who are perhaps... rightfully dubious about Caelondian liquor, the smell that's wafting out from the steaming bottles is absolutely heavenly. No Cham-Pain today. This is just some Hearty Punch. Warm, zesty, and absolutely the sort of thing one needs on a cold day like this. Georges will wave you over, if you've been in the snow for a while.]
[Or, hell, even if you haven't.]
B
[Alternatively! He seems to be doing his best to make a snowsquirt by his little table, tongue sticking out of the corner of his mouth. Help your local friendly bartender out?]

OTA
Hmn...
[There was one thing she knew how to do with snow at least. She scooped up a handful, patted it down and looked carefully at the others nearby. Which would be least likely to be offended by the sudden throwing of a snowball. Too many decisions. She just lets it fly]

open to everyone!!
If you did, it probably came from Kohaku. She's giggling happily, bunching up bits of snow and throwing them at anyone who passes her by.
It's a challenge, you see. She wants to start something. She wants to declare war of the cold and frozen kind.
It's time for a Snowball fight. ]

[He ALSO knows that humans are especially fond of snowball fights. As such, he's expanded the range of his proximity sensors to warn him of incoming snowballs.]
[All that said, he knows that colder temperatures do not mean good things for plant life, so he's just going to be tending to the farm while this is going on. If worse comes to worse, he's got a dance that can dissipate the snow. Anyone else feel like tending to some plants?]

It's very rare that Shing ever really gets to see snow, much less play with it, so right now he's going to be doing the obvious thing and making snow angels, throwing himself onto the ground with a WHUMP and moving around in it.
Though once he does get up he starts laughing despite himself - it's been too long since he could actually just have fun out here, what with the Calamity and all...
Join him in making snow angels or doing something snow-related? ]
no subject
Depending on when one catches him, they're either going to get assaulted with a snowball and gleeful cackling, or perhaps creating snow sculptures that are... Well, one might be reminded of Calvin and Hobbes when looking at them. None of the monsters look anything like what anyone would have seen on the Skyway though.]

She spends quite a while observing everyone else's winter activities, flying hardly a foot off the ground to keep the snow off her bare feet. When she lands just nearby enough to watch, she keeps still for the same reason, and presses her wings against her body for warmth.
...Until she tries to alight on the snow-dusted ice the river has become by mistake and comes dangerously close to toppling over.
Flaring out her wings helps her catch her balance. Still, she's...not entirely sure how to proceed? She shuffles forward a few uncertain steps and nope, her footing here isn't nearly stable enough for her to get the start she needs to fly again.
Feel free to catch a certain tiny dragon child snooping on your winter activities or trying desperately to keep herself balanced on the ice.]
Okay, let's see if we can make this respondable. Came out in a rush last time.

OTA
[Snow!
Rose was no stranger to snow, but it had been some years since she had ventured willingly to one of the colder regions of the planet. The beach-side cave that had been her home for the past several millennium was hardly in a climate for it, and as the light flakes settled on her nose and tickled her cheeks she couldn't help but smile brightly.
Oh how she wished her Gems were here to see this... but it would be a crime to not enjoy it herself.
If one were to come near the housing area of the Bastion they might just find an interesting sight - a very large pink haired woman spinning about in the falling snow, or (as the snow piles up more) even making some impressively big snow angels. Care to join her?]

Nanaki | OTA
She is tired from her time out on the Skyway, but she will still take at least a little time to play in the snow, because it's been months since she has actually seen snow at all.
So.
Whoever is nearby, watch out. Nanaki is throwing snowballs, and she has a good arm.]
Bon | OTA
No, he is out by the lake, testing the ice to see if it is firm enough to hld weight. Once he is satisfied that yes, this is safe and he won't go through, Bon will work on clearing some of the snow off of the ice. And once that is done, he's going to go sliding across the ice, because even without ice skates he can keep his balance pretty well on the slippery surface.
Oh look Bon is having fun this is a rare sight. Come ice skating with him.]

[And the mission they had up in the Arctic was not exactly a fun time full of rainbows and happiness.]
[So a different morph is needed. That's why people will see a polar bear flopping around in the snow. Are you distracted, or building something? You may get a surprise when you see some big eyes and a snout peering up at you.]
[Or you might just hear Tobias' thought speech as he rolls around and around and around.]
<Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!>
