[Ah... ahh... AACHOO! And a sniffle.]

It's cold...

It's really cold... There's more snow outside... we can make lots of snow people! Maybe a snow puppy too, or a snow koromon. Or a snow digimon! Or snow angels!

[Toooooot.]

I wanna go outside.

When it gets a little warmer, let's go build snowmen~

Right now it's so cold that playing in the snow would just hurt, and not be fun at all.

[whistleoflight]

It would hurt?

But snow's soft.

[going_to_change]

Yup! When it gets this cold, it makes you freeze up like a little popsicle and it stings really bad.

Also, it's so cold the snow is just powdery and doesn't stick well so you can't make snowballs or snow men or snow forts or snow-gundams.

[whistleoflight]

Oh... but what if you have a jacket?

So you can't make anything out of it? [Aww... wait.] What's a gundam?

[going_to_change]

The cold can be really sneaky and get under even a jacket!

Nope, it just falls apart.

...Oh! It's a cartoon show from the seventies. It's sometimes on late at night back home.

[whistleoflight]

Wow!

Oh... [How interesting.]

The seventies... that's a number!

[going_to_change]

Yeah! The 1970s to be exact. It's like, fifty years ago where I'm from, so all the early Otaku are grandpas and grandmas now.

Do you like cartoons?

[whistleoflight]

[That blew right over her head, but cartoons, yaaaay!]

Uh-huh!

[going_to_change]

Me too! If we can ever get the TVs working again, let's watch lots of cartoons together, okay? And eat icecream~

[whistleoflight]

Okay!

Ice cream!
