I've always liked snow, but... I've never seen this much of it before. I wonder... is this what Yuki no Kuni is like? Naruto-kun said there was snow everywhere....

Allelujah-san, have you ever seen snow like this? I... it doesn't look like it's going to stop anytime soon... will the whole city be buried?

...The snow reminds me of ash.

[hyuuga_hime]

Of ash? I guess.... it does, in a way. But I've never... never seen this much of either...

[captive_requiem]

Does it not snow much in Konoha?

[hyuuga_hime]

It does snow, but... not like this. But Naruto-kun once told me it snows a lot in the Snow country. I've never been there, but he and his team went on a mission there once.

[captive_requiem]

I see.

I've seen snow, but I never truly experienced it. All of my time was spent in the colonies or space.

[hyuuga_hime]

Oh....

...what.... what is it like? Being.... in space?

[captive_requiem]

If you're on a colony, it's not much different than Earth. The climate is the same all year, though. On a ship.. it's weightless, monochromatic... Without something to do, I could see how it would drive a person mad.

[hyuuga_hime]

It just seems so... so unbeleivable. That people could... live in space...

[captive_requiem]

...Surviving is hardly the same as living.

[hyuuga_hime]

I guess so. I just.... never even though it could be possible...

[captive_requiem]

I suppose it's lost its novelty in my time. All it takes is the right amount of force to break free of the atmosphere.
