[Those who happen out upon the courtyard today might notice a... not-that-unusual sight. You see there happens to be a ten year-old, all buttoned up in a small winter coat with a fur-lined hood, bright red hair sticking out beneath it, playing around in the snow. Or to be more precise, rolling around in it. And flailing

[Barney hasn't gone so far as to set up a kissing Booth this year, but he's still on the prowl. Not only that, but well... hey. Snowmen are awesome. He wishes up a top hat and strolls over]

You guys need one of these if you wanna do it right.

[Tear looks up as Barney approaches. She's never seen him before. A fairy floats by overhead, but she doesn't notice.]

Ah... thank you. [She frowns at her pile of snow.] I can't seem to get it to stick together.

Then you need a bucket of water. Sometimes it's not wet enough. [he shrugs] My brother James and I used to do this in Central Park every year, I'm an old pro.

A bucket of water? Maybe I'll try that. [She turns to watch the little ginger kid running around like a noob in the snow. Luke probably doesn't have the kind of patience required to build a snowman right now. Maybe he'll see what she's doing and wander over at some point, but for now...]

Thank you for the suggestion. [She folds her hands over her stomach.] I'm Tear.

Barney. [he shrugs, already wishing up a bucket and scooping up a handful of snow so he can demonstrate]

Yeah, just .... make a snowball and kinda dip it in the water. That'll make it stick. Eventually it'll ice over. You won't be able to do the big snowballs, but you can pile lots of little ones up to make stuff until we get good snow.

... Who's the kid, is that your brother or something?
