[ stands awkwardly in snow with a scarf on... ]

[afeatherpillow]

[--Notices someone else who is awkward, oh boy! The nonawkward thing to do, obviously, is stare at him.]

[inspirefear]

[ ...oH. Feels this staring. It's not weird at all. Nope.

The only thing to do at this point is stare back. ]

[afeatherpillow]

[Okay, wait, now he's feeling awkward. He throws on a smile.]

Hello! [Beat.] I, um. [Beat.] I like your scarf. It's very... it looks very... warm.

[inspirefear]

[ There's nothing like an awkward silence...

okay, enough of that. ]

Oh. Thanks. [ tugs at the scarf. ] It is really warm...

[afeatherpillow]

Yes. [SHIFTS HIS WEIGHT.]

Have you ever been here before?

[inspirefear]

No, not really. [ a beat ] This is Canada, right?

[afeatherpillow]

I think so? [Pause.] I don't know. I don't really know the area. It's nice, though. Snow.

[inspirefear]

It's not bad, I like the snow. I'm not sure I like being in Canada with a bunch of strangers who could potentially be wolves, though.

[afeatherpillow]

Yes. [He swallows, dropping his gaze before looking up once more.] But I mean as far as these things go, it's not such a bad place to die, is it?

[inspirefear]

[ SILENCE. ]

...I guess not. I don't plan on dying just yet, not without putting up a fight at least.

[afeatherpillow]

That's a nice attitude to have.

[RAINBOWS AND UNICORNS AND AWKWARD SILENCES]

...My name is Katurian, by the way. I'm a writer.

[inspirefear]

You shouldn't give up so easily either. [ Looking at him srsly. ]

Mine's Phobos. I'm [ he pauses ] a kid.
