(Untitled)
[Rin has decided to not be an introvert today, which means she's out in the sunshine and snow all bundled up.
Anybody getting close to her would notice the growing army of snow rabbits at their feet. Eventually she'd come into view, crouched down, forming another one of said snow creatures. And possibly humming.]
Ah, you are making something with the snow? I didn't know you could do that...
...What are they? [eyes one of the snow bunnies]

I'm making snow rabbits. I saw a book once where people molded all sorts of things out of snow. I'm not that good, but this is fun.

Fun?
Um, I didn't see it in a book, just heard it in a song... but um, I think I heard 'snowballs' are popular too...
[grabs a handful of snow, not really reacting much to the fact he's doing so with bare hands or the fact he's like, in shorts right now and kneeling in snow]

Oh, those are for when you have other people around. You make a bunch and have snowball fights. [Watches him, finally brave enough to ask what she's been wondering.]Len? Do you... don't you feel cold?

...Fights? But um, aren't fights bad?
[makes a confused noise]
...I can tell it's a little cold out, but it's not too bad. Uh, is that weird? I mean, I see some people in lots of clothing like Rin, but others aren't wearing too much...

[Ponders a nice way to say this. She doesn't want to press any bad buttons for the poor kid.]
Maybe... you don't feel it as bad as I do. Because you're a robot or something. [Oh yeah, real classy Rin.]

[has managed a crude snowball, but is not sure, maybe he could try what she said-- but that means throwing it at Rin, right? That's-- that's bad!]
Umm... that must be right. Maybe? I mean, I talked with Doctor-san, but I really don't understand the difference between 'robot' and 'human', ah, very well.
[looks away and frowns a little, he's hoping that this body makes him a 'person', but really, can he be a 'robot' and a 'person'? The other robots here seem pretty similar to humans, but...]

[Well, she's glad he thinks that. Even if they did have a snowball fight Len would probably win. Rin has terrible aim and can't throw well to begin with.]
I see. It's nothing that matters, really, it just struck me as a bit odd.
[Her automatic response to his worried face is to pat his head after slipping a glove off. She won't ask what is bothering him, but at least this way he knows she's there.]
Reply
[If he hit her, it would be because he was trying not to and did so anyway]
Um, it's okay that Rin asked... I mean, uh, I should know more about these sort of things too...
[relaxes immediately, he might actually be getting used to 'touch' of this nature, or at least, from this Rin]

It's still new to you, right? I don't expect you to know everything.
[Smiling once again. She was glad this seemed to work for him as well as it had for her.]
Reply
[much more relaxed, smiling people do that to him, especially Rins.
Picks up his misshapen ball and aims for a tree...
it hits a bush that's far behind and to the right]
....

[She giggles, pulling a glove back on. After making her own snowball she aims for the same tree but only makes it halfway there.]
Nobody ever said we had to be good at everything.
