[the video opens up not on Ariadne herself, but the inside of her fridge. Pointed at...a snowman. Not a big one, but a small one, perhaps a foot or so tall. Three small snowballs stacked on top of each other, with tiny Armani buttons for buttons and eyes, and a smile far too happy for the fate that probably awaits it

...I couldn't tell you, really. That's definitely...weird.

If you knew my flatmates, it would make more sense.

Maybe so. Still don't get why there would be a snowman in there in the first place...

I think it was Eames' way of convincing me to do winter-y things with him.

...That's a really weird way of convincing you.

Subliminal messaging. If he surrounds me with winter-y things, then I might want to immerse myself in winter-y things.

Why he doesn't just ask, I'm not sure.

Yeah...wouldn't it be easier to just ask than doing all of...that?

I think he likes it, and it just kills two birds with one stone. Or three in this case, since I know that he's annoyed Arthur.

Well I guess it makes a little more sense now. A...little.

That might be all you get.

I'll just have to be happy with that, then.

You do get used to it, by the way.

[beats_zelos]

I'd hope so. I would think it'd be difficult to feel confused all the time.

[buildingreality]

Probably. I imagine some people are, though.
