[A. Miakis has a new job! She is now an employee of the local flower shop. It's an improvement from the library; flowers, at least, are pretty to look at, and she doesn't get glared at for making noise! But the work doesn't interest her that much and it's still a lot of sitting around doing nothing, so she is still pretty bored! So, anyone who is

[What is it with humans and frolicking in the snow? Yuki pauses for a few moments to stare, although she will be on her way quickly if Miakis doesn't notice her.]

[sting_like_a]

[Because it's fun, Yuki. :| Miakis will look up from her place on the ground just in time to spot her.]

Heeeey, Yuki~! Enjoying the weather?

[bogusmagicker]

. . .

[Yuki slowly shakes her head.]

[sting_like_a]

Really? But the snow is so pretty! And a lot of fun to play in... Or do you just not like the cold?

[bogusmagicker]

. . . That is . . . fun?

[sting_like_a]

It sure is! You can come join me, if you want, and see for yourself~

[bogusmagicker]

. . .

[After a long time of staring, Yuki slowly reaches out and sticks one finger into the snow.

This is progress.]

[sting_like_a]

[G-Giggling. Yuki you are strangely adorable.]

It's not gonna bite you~

[bogusmagicker]

[Yes. Snow does not have teeth. Yuki opts against saying that out loud, though, and scoops up a handful, instead.

. . . It is cold.

She is uncertain as to how this is fun.]

[sting_like_a]

Hmmm... Oh! We could try making a snowman! That seems like something you might enjoy~

[bogusmagicker]

[Yuki lets the snow trickle out of her fingers and turns her gaze to meet Miakis's. She blinks.

And awaits instruction.]

[sting_like_a]

Have you seen 'em around town? They look like they're pretty easy to make... Three biiig snowballs make up the head and body, and then you can dress him up!

[She's rolling up a pile of snow as she speaks, and gestures for Yuki to come join her.]

So late, I'm sorry. I had to go on like super-hiatus this time.

[bogusmagicker]

[Yuki has indeed seen them around town, but she had thought them rather unsightly, to be honest. Half of them were brownish and the rest were lopsided. Still, she watches what Miakis is doing for a little while before she kneels and slowly begins to push a wad of snow in front of her.

All it does is form an ugly clump.]

Aww, it's okay. I'm supposed to be on slowatus anyway. :|

[sting_like_a]

[Miakis just shakes her head and kneels in front of Yuki's little clump, padding more snow onto it. This gives it a better, rounder shape and thus makes it easier to roll, which she begins to do!]

It's easier once it gets bigger, see~?

Ah, thanks for understanding.

[bogusmagicker]

. . . I see.

[Yuki is not certain she sees, but the next snowball she rolls is perfectly spherical, so maybe she saw after all.]
