Snow. I wouldn't suppose this is your doing, Vexen, am I correct?

Oddly enough, it's nice to look at. I've even gone outside. Thankfully, I was able to avoid keybearers with snowballs. But now I'm in, back to work.

Still no clues on what this mansion really is. Lexaeus, you're welcome to come to the library at some point. I have tea already brewed.

I would come even if I were not welcome. Someone must bring you out in the snow from time to time -- if only because it won't last.

[vi_schemer]

I was hoping you would say that.

You like the snow? I wouldn't mind going out again. I hope it lasts a little longer than the last event.

[tread_the_earth]

I do not mind the snow. But I imagine it's more bothersome for those with smaller or thinner stature.

I imagine the snow will last awhile. The mansion may be trying to simulate seasons.

[vi_schemer]

A good thing, then, that I have this coat still. ...though the mansion has been kind enough to gift my closet with a lot of other clothes.

Interesting. So there will be spring, and summer, as well. Hm...Well, I'll still try to enjoy as much as I can out of the snow.

[tread_the_earth]

The mansion provides almost everything you could desire. Clothes are easy for it, I'm sure.

Yes. The children certainly are. ... It reminds me of the Garden.

[vi_schemer]

I'm beginning to see that. Perhaps events are the price we pay for having so much?

...That's why I'm enjoying it.

[tread_the_earth]

That would be fairly logical. Maintaining balance.

Mm. Yes.

[vi_schemer]

Maybe I'll go back out later. Care to join me?

[tread_the_earth]

Of course. We will try to avoid the snowball fights.

[vi_schemer]

I hear tell that Vexen is being used as bait in this snowball fight.

It might actually be rather amusing to watch.

[tread_the_earth]

... That would certainly keep my interest.
